A Happy Tuesday Morning to All!
Woke up today with a big ole grin on my face. Feeling ready to tackle anything that comes my way. Can’t say I’ve felt quite this positive in a long time 
Its decided that my husband and I will bring dinner next door Tuesdays and Thursdays and eat with my Dad. I’m looking so forward to that. The other nights we will still go and visit. Can’t imagine not seeing him everyday.
Now time to get back at a healthy menu. I love a challenge so today is full of them.
I’ll write menus for the rest of the week, work some on my Medical Transcriptionist studies, clean house a little more. Wow, seems like I have so much more time now.
I’ll get on the walker while All My Children is on. I’ll do my best to stay on for an hour, but if I only stay 30 mins I’ll take that !!! :0)
And the most exciting news is….READY??????????? Drum Roll BRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr….I will be having a home visit tommorrow to become a Big Sister. I’ve always wanted to be a Big Sister and finally called and filled out the application. So far the background check is complete, the driving record is complete, references I think? and we need a home visit. I’ll need to run the vac and just pick up some. Overall my house is generally clean. When you don’t have little ones running around, things stay picked up! Soooooooooo I’m geeked, can’t wait to be a Big Sister!! They said in Michigan right now there are over 400 little ones looking for a Big Brother/Big Sister. I’m so glad I can be part of such a wonderful organization.
In my cleaning I ran across this wonderful little book “Faith’s Little Instruction Book Daily Calendar (Supercharged Quotes to Blast Doubt Out of Your life)
Lets see how we like it ok?
February 26
And the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him.
James 5:15
Faith means being grasped by a power that is greater than we are, a power that shakes us and turns us, and transforms and heals us.
Paul Tillich, 1955
Love and Hugs to All. Have a Happy, Safe Day!!
Love your list of things to do… Love your daily instruction. Love your big ol grin. Love your letting go a little with dad and letting others step in. Love that you worked out a compromise there. Love your attitude. and most of all, I love the idea of you becoming a Big Sister. I think you would be a wonderful Big Sister. No, I KNOW you would!
So cool… SO COOL… So many of us finding our little niches in life. I plan to blog about a couple of mine later today if I have the time.
Big hugggggggggggggggggggggggs Jane! Big HUGSSSS…

What a wonderful idea! And you will be a light in some young person’s life! Glad you will still see Dad often and feed him some healthy food. You sound so happy and centered today! Send a little of that my way, will you? Old man winter is getting me down. Watching for the first sign of spring! Got to get out…Cabin Fever. Love, Marge
Awesome job. I am so excited for you being a little sister. Wish I could do that, just can’t deal with it financially right now…Things are just a tad tight. So you are an All My Children fan too. I keep up with three but it is mostly just checking up on the recaps so that when I do get a day at home, I can know what the heck is going on!!! have a good one Jane…good to hear from you
That was a very inspiring blog. Glad you have the will and the want to be a Big Sister, I think I need to look into being a Baby Sister to some of our elderly. Have to check that out. I’ with Marge, Cabin fever is almost more than I can stand right now. Let us know how your Home visit goes, have a great day. Rachel
Good morning to you too! You made me smile! Good luck with your lists, now I need to make mine!
Hello Jane….
Your Dad is so fortunate to have you and your husband in his life. Love, and take good care of him, he is the only Dad you’ll ever have.
And, some lucky little child will have a great “Big Sister” to look up to and see a great example of kindness.
