WOW!! Has it really been a year...

My how time flies...
I don't know where the time has gone, but it will be hard to try to catch up, so I'll just make a New Year's resolution to post at least once a week in 2016.

Recap of 2015
  • It was not the year of the dog for us, we lost 3 of our loved pets.  Mo, Mia and Opi.
  • In October I quite my job at Supervalu after 14 years and 11 months.
  • Started a new journey with The Amalgamated Sugar Company LLC as an IT Project Manager.
  • Tori and Chad bought a new home.  (Yea, we don't have to move them for awhile)
  • Bought season Football tickets for BSU for myself and Dad (Ron).
  • All of us had a healthy year. Knock on wood it continues.
  • With the loss of the dogs, Simba now thinks he owns the whole house.
  • Tori and Chad got a new border collie puppy ~ Kona.  She is very smart and learning fast.
  • OH, OH...I almost forgot the biggest item of all.  Tori, Chad, Cathy (Chad's Mom) and I went to Germany, Austria and Switzerland for three week in May.  I'm still working on putting my book together and will try to post some pictures of the highlights.
So as you can see it was a busy year.
More to come......

Love you all ~~Mitzi

...this is the message I got on Monday as I jumped in. Monday was my birthday, another milestone day.  One that I have been dreading for weeks.  Not sure why this one is so hard to swallow.   For weeks I have been feeling like the crocodile from Peter Pan...Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock.  The days just tick away. Birthday's are interesting, there is a build up as the day gets closer adding to the excitement (or dread).  Then the alarm goes off on the "BIG" day and you wake up just like any other day.  The same person, nothing feels different.  If it wasn't for the wrinkles you see in the mirror you wouldn't know you were any older. It isn't until you mentally do the math in your head and realize that you're starting a new decade of your life.  60 is the new 30, right!?! We need to not dwell on the years that have past, we should look forward to the years ahead of us, all the new adventures to be had, people to meet, life left to experience. So let's not

Four years ago, we bought Dana a snow blower for Christmas.  He never took it out of the box.  Claimed that it would be too noisy for the neighbors at the time of the morning that he like to shovel, which is usually around 6:00am.  I could never figure out if he really did like to shovel the snow or if he just wasn't sure about putting it together.  I really should have had Home Depot do that for us. In the fall, he decide to unpack it and see about putting it together.  He claimed that you need to have an engineering degree to put it together.  Well the heavy snow came and in the mist of both of us shoveling and not getting any where.  Paul, our neighbor, was out working on his driveway, so Dana told him if he helped him carry upstairs and got it going he could use it.  He was all for it.  They carried it up and by the time Dana got back from getting gasoline, Paul had it running. Need I say Dana feel in love with the snow blower.  Did several of the neighbors driveways
