It's Wednesday

  Finally!  My night off is here!  I work four shifts each week, ten hours per shift, and have three days off.  Really, I like it a lot, it's just not easy to date because my off days/nights are on most other people's "week days."  Yet another good reason to start making myself do new and different things, like keeping this journal.

I started so I could get adjusted to being more out going and social. I got off at 6:30 this morning, and haven't gone to bed yet.  There's too much to do, or so I think.  And, I'm still catching up from my trip to Waynesville North Carolina.  My son and I drove there from Texas. It was a very good trip with no problems along the way.


Got to my moms and we spent a week with her. She lives up on the mountain. I had a hard time keeping up with her on our walks higher up from where she lives. She has lived there 15 years and not been able to see any bears. Our 3rd day there we saw a momma black bear and three cubs. They were in her backyard,  just on other side of the deck.  I tried to snap pictures through the window but they didn't turn out very good.


While we were there we went to Grandfather Mountain.  We crossed a swinging bridge that's a mile high in the air.  It was a little scary, but the scenery was beautiful!  We also went to Chimmy Rock, and then we were ready to head out on our fifteen hour drive home.

We made it home safely, and since I've been back, I've been playing catch up.  Whew!  Now I need a vacation from my vacation!  But, it was fun.  We saw a lot and had a really good time.

New things are happening.   My friend Shay and I love to crochet, use looms and sew women's and children's clothes.  I have made afghans, baby blankets, booties and hat sets.  Shay does a lot of the same things. We stay really busy just making baby gifts and blankets for other people at work. I just take orders and so does Shay. So, we got the notion to start our own business.

We are really excited to finally be starting this up, and we'll be sure to announce when we get everything up and running on our website and begin taking outside orders!

Well, guess I'd better head to bed.  Will continue my online journey soon!

See ya later!
