Fourth time is the charm
I don't really have a particular reason for this feeling,
only that I feel truly grateful.
Funny how that happens,
gratitude makes me happy.
I also am learning lessons, hard fought for lessons
that will make me be a better person if I allow the lesson to sink deep into my heart.
I have had the opportunity to learn this particular lesson 4 times now, and maybe,.... just maybe I will
experience a lightbulb moment and I will finally understand and move past this particular lesson
on to the next one.
It is amazing how that works.
But for today, right now, I am grateful to be given a fourth chance to gain insight,
insight that will help me along the way and propel me upwards along my journey.
For that is my goal, that is my choice.
I pray to be up to the challenge, and I pray with gratitude just to be given the chance.

Gifts of gratitude
As summer time winds down and days start getting shorter and cooler in the evening, I start having the feelings that seem to come with the time of harvest and gathering, I am having deep feelings of gratitude tonight. My summer has run by like someone being chased by a bear and I don't know where time has gone. I do feel that I have accomplished much this summer and I feel so grateful for the opportunity that was mine to travel and work in the yard and do all the things that I needed and wanted to do. I thank my Father-in-Heaven for giving me a body capable of doing all I asked of it. How wonderful it is to have the feeling and desire to go and do and have a body that makes it all possible. I am Grateful.
I also have deep and tender feelings of gratitude for my beautiful family. Every one of them, from the oldest to the youngest.
To my oldest granddaughter I want to say, you are truly a daughter of our Heavenly Father, who loves you deeply (even more then your grandma, if that is possible) and I want nothing more then for you to know and feel of that love. YOU are so amazing, and I LOVE YOU!
To my second granddaughter, How on earth could we have been so lucky to get you in our family. Your kindness and sweetness set you apart from anyone else in the room. You carry a lightness with you wherever you go and I LOVE YOU!
To my third little granddaughter, you are a constant source of joy, and even at your young age you are such a gracious little lady. Your smile is infectious. You make me be a better person just by being around you and I LOVE YOU!
My next grandbaby is my first grandson. He has a smile that could power a small city. It makes everyone around him smile and he is such an example of kindness to his younger siblings. I am so excited to watch you grow my little monkey, I LOVE YOU!
Number 5 grandbaby is my second grandson and he sends his grandmas heart all aflutter when he smiles and runs to me to give me the best hugs in the world. His enthusiasm for all he does is contagious and the world follows him as if he were a pied piper. HE makes everyone smile when he is around and I LOVE YOU!
Next to grace our family is another grandson so sweet and quiet, he has an uncanny ability to focus on a task until completed and quietly goes about his day of play. He loves his siblings and although he wipes off his adoring grandmas kisses, he always allows me to plant them on his little head before wiping them playfully away, I LOVE HIM!
My very precocious granddaughter came along next and she is a delight. She has an old soul and is very smart. She is a lovely little girl with a twinkle in her eyes when she laughs. She loves her little brother so very much and her grandma loves when she shares her sweet kisses with grandma, I LOVE YOU!
Next is my shy little grandson who makes his grandma work hard to get his time and attention. He is such a delightful little boy and so loving to his little brother. His curly blond hair is the thing that fairy tales are made of and he rewards my patience with his angelic laugh, I LOVE YOU!
My next granddaughter is more sparkling then a bottle of champagne. She bubbles all over the place and her eyes have a twinkle that just doesn't stop. The room lights up when she runs in (because walking just wouldn't do). She is the light of noonday and I LOVE YOU!
My next miniature little grandson is like a full grown adult in a little boy. He is so smart and inquisitive and can really jump on the trampoline like a pro. I love that he reminds me so much of his daddy, my youngest son. He is an angel child, and I LOVE YOU!
Grandbaby number 11 is a wonderful little boy, he is independent and loves to wave bye-bye. If left alone he loves to go exploring and can even be cajoled into giving his grandma a sweet kiss. He is extraordinary and I LOVE YOU!
Number 12 is a gorgeous bundle of love. He smiles without much convincing from his grandma, as a matter of fact, sometimes I look at him and he is just grinning at me willing me to look at him. He is a very solid little boy with a soft edge about him that draws everyone to him. He is a joy and I LOVE YOU!
As you can see, I have much to be grateful for. I don't know how I am so lucky and so fortunate. What could I have possibly done to warrant such gifts of love and spirit, I don't know, but I am so grateful to be in the lives of these valiant spirits.
I want to state unequivocally that children are the greatest gift of all and I want only to live worthy of the trust that has been placed in me to love and support them throughout their lives.
I also have deep and tender feelings of gratitude for my beautiful family. Every one of them, from the oldest to the youngest.

Who's a Stalker?
I'm a Stalker.....no, I'm serious....I stalk people
with blogs. Dedicated people that actually do blog
every single day.
They give me so much entertainment, and
sometimes education.
And what do I do in return....? I Stalk them.
Every single day I go into my own blog to hook
up to their blogs and you know what?....When they
don't have anything new.. I pout!
Now, I am the LAST person to do such a thing as
I am such a slacker when it comes to posting.
And yet.... I still do it!
To some of my favorite targets I must, with head hung low,
apologize for my very boorish behavior. I take and take never
giving a thought to giving back...but their words are so insightful
and full of humor and just fun to read.. I can't stop myself.
I don't even want to stop myself. Its fun and entertaining and gives me
the sense that I am a social being (which everyone knows I am NOT).
To Jenifer and Dawn and Tara and Jenny and Ree and Missy and Heidi and Nie and
cjane, I only wish I could sincerely apologize for my behavior, but I wont
because apologizing means I won't do it again.... AND I will!
As a matter of fact I plan to do a little blog surfing right now!
Don't say you haven't been warned. bwaahaaahaaaa!

Ramblings of a traveling Spirit
TIME...What an interesting concept time is.....
For instance, how long has it been since my last post?
just a question
It's been awhile..I know
It isn't because there hasn't been stuff
to write about...
you know....good stuff!
We have had a new grandbaby since I last posted
a beautiful little boy, what a blessing!
and a son and his family moved back up here after getting a super duper job
with SkyWest.
My niece and her little fam have moved back home
after a long stint of being too far away from us.
We also found that we will be grandparents again
for the 12th time..... Man this NEVER gets old!!!!!
There have been many miles added to our frequent flyer
cards and also to the family truckster as we continue our
saga of meeting new and great people and seeing new
and greater places.
What a joy life can be..even with the challenges in life.
Without the challenges, the joy would never be so embraced.
What a strange contradiction that is.
Time can be a blessing or a curse depending on which side
of the aisle you are sitting on. Mostly I think it is a blessing.
There is sooooo much to do and so little time to get it all
done in. That is really why I haven't posted in so long....
If the truth be told.

Flying the Friendly Skies
and I am feeling a bit discombobulated (sorry, I am sure the spelling is bad,
not a word I write all that often)
Travel has been my middle name over the past 58 days,
I think I slept in my own bed a total of 4 days in January.
Some of my time was spent on Leisure, I will confess to that,
but a great amount was also spent on business.
(you know the thing that pays the rent and keeps the lights on)
Fortunately my business gives me opportunity to stretch my mind and
spend time around people.
(Not something, if left to my own devices, I would find myself doing.)
And so I feel quite content with the way I have spent my time,
and also exhausted.
March will give me time to regroup and recuperate as we will be home
at least half the month. I only wish that March weather made the 'staying at
home' part a bit more pleasant.
spent in sunny climates with shirtsleeve temperatures. But don't worry
we spent our share of time in the blustery weather of Colorado and Utah.
I also have been in Spokane Washington where my horizons were broadened
and my mind paradigm was shifted as I learned all about being alkaline and
healthy. May I say, Our bodies are truly miraculous things and what we do
to them can sometimes be nothing short of criminal.
It truly has been a remarkable 58 days and if only my lovely children and
grandchildren had been within arms reach it would have been a perfect
scenario, but that did make home draw me as a magnetic is drawn to
true north.
I am hopeful that it will not be another 2 months before posting something

Happy New Year
Hi everyone, it is time to welcome In yet another new decade and I am pretty excited for what this new year holds in store.
For some reason I am very excited for this upcoming year. Maybe it is because a new grandchild is expected! And wonderful opportunities are just around every corner, and the anticipation is killing me.
I will also try to do a better job of keeping my blog up-to-date. Hey, that can be my new years resolution. Keeping my life better documented. What New Years resolutions are you making? care to share?

Auld Lang Syne
Hi all,
Christmas is officially over and I am secretly glad....don't get me wrong,I love Christmas and everything that comes along with that. I love the family gatherings and the lights and the joy and happiness that people seem much more prone to display at Christmas time. But.....it is time to move forward. And that is exactly what we did. We took down the REAL tree the day after Christmas because it had become so dry and as long as we were in the take down mode we moved on to the tree in the kitchen. I love the tree that we put up in the kitchen, it is a full 9 feet and I decorate it to make me happy, but it has been up since the first of November (yes, you read that correctly) which meant it had done its job and did it well. Furniture was moved back in and tiny villages were packed away until next year. I usually have a little bit of sadness when I undecorate after the holidays but it hasn't materialized. Maybe that is because I have so much that I am looking forward to in this new year. For one thing we have a new grandson coming the first part of February. I also have a little trip to the tropics around the same time. If 2011 is anything like 2010 it will race by so quickly that soon I will be pulling the tree up out of the basement and enjoying the holidays again.

Change is Good?
We are making a few changes around our house, not really a remodel but still holes are being made in walls and wire is being threaded.
It is a little disconcerting to me to make a hole (even a neat hole) in a perfectly good wall.
Sometimes you have to make things worse before you can make things better.
I guess the same thing can be said of a myriad of things.
Still, sometimes it feels that we live in a never ending construction zone.
Luckily Mr Darcy is a whiz at destroying things and then building them back up!
If only he had the time to finish his projects.

A perfect Thanksgiving Roll
We love bread at our house and this recipe which is found in 'The Essential Mormon Cookbook' is a perfect recipe. It is made a day ahead and refrigerated and it is 'fool proof', I am living proof.
Feather Light Overnight Rolls
1 C water
1 C butter (2 sticks)
3/4 C sugar
2 t. salt
1 C cold water
2 (.25 ounce) packages yeast
1/2 C warm water
4 eggs, beaten
7 1/2 C flour
Butter for spreading on dough
In a 6 quart pan bring the 1 cup water to a boil. Add the 1 C butter, sugar and salt. Remove from heat. Add the 1 C cold water. Dissolve yeast in the 1/2 C warm water (not hot). When first mixture is lukewarm, add yeast mixture and beaten eggs. Stir briefly. Add flour and stir together. Cover pan with lid and refrigerate overnight. When ready to roll out, divide dough in thirds. Lightly flour surface of bread board. Roll each third out in a large circle about 1/2 inch think. Spread dough lightly with butter. Cut dough into wedges and roll each up, beginning at the wide end, to form a crescent shape. Place on 3 greased baking sheets ( 12 rolls per sheet). Let rise about 4 hours. Bake at 400 for about 12 minutes. Makes 3 dozen rolls.
I am telling you what, everyone in my family LOVES these and requests them for every get together. I am taking them to Thanksgiving dinner this year as Sissy, the gorgeous one, is hosting it at her house. (Thanks baby girl, I love you tons). Anyone can and should make these for their family gatherings, they make you look like a baker extraordinaire. (I wish I had a picture to attach of all of my children and grandkids enjoying them but no one would stop eating them long enough to take the picture.)
As a side note: if you do not already own the cookbook that I mentioned above, you MUST get it. Every recipe in it is fabulous (at least all that I have tried have been).

Note to self..Not another lame excuse
What is the deal? why are you not getting with the program.
What is the deal with your procrastinating nature?
You know you will feel so much better when you get
your assignments accomplished don't you? It will
give you a well earned sigh of relief and you know how
good that will feel.
The Relief Society Christmas Party is coming closer,
and closer, and closer and you know you must get to
it! Like right now. Hey! don't think I don't see you trying
to hide behind this computer screen...put this thing down
and get to work making those phone calls.....
I tell you what....sometimes I am such a task master!

Note to Self
The time has come to acknowledge all my blessings.
Sometimes I get caught up in the day to day grind and
find myself focusing on the things I lack instead of the
things I am blessed with.
So......I have decided that I will focus on the good, and
with that give thanks for all that I have been blessed with.
I am making myself a gratitude journal that I can keep with
me and will serve as a reminder when I am down in the
dumps and having a pity party.
I will keep you posted self about my progress.

What a bunch of Characters!
It is said that you become like who you spend time with.
So what do the following pictures say about me and mine?
I know, and I am thrilled! I love that I might have some kind of a connection with the Wonderful World of Disneyland! Even if it is through association, I'm good with that!
This was a truly, superbly, spectacular visit at my home away from home because Mr Darcy and I chose to spend this amazing 12 hours with our oldest granddaughter. That's right , my favorite place with one of my favorite people. It was true perfection, the weather, the crowds, the amazing water show at the end of the evening, the incredible breakfast with the characters...Sigh...what more can one expect?
Nothing....it was perfection!

I just love Weddings!
What a fabulous weekend we just experienced. My darling niece was married in the St George Temple on Saturday and she was simply beautiful. My family is so fortunate to have a dad and grandpa that is a sealer and he has sealed all of his 10 grandkids that have been married. It was a dear ceremony and I was grateful that I was there to witness. it.
My beautiful niece and new nephew
My sis and her hubby and the newlyweds
It also gave us an excuse to get together with all of my little babies and their little babies. To sit in that beautiful temple surrounded by everyone that means the most to me on this earth is a heavenly experience. I was thrilled. I spent the time lovin on my little ones and enjoying my life.
Here are a couple of photos so you can feel a part of the action.
My gorgeous nieces
The beautiful cake that my talented daughter made
My dearest parents with my youngest adorable grandson
My talented and beautiful daughter kissing her simply scrumptious Fazy
The happy little couple at their reception
A view of the amazing quilt my sister made for them

Friend
I just met one of my Heroes.
I have been blogging for a couple of years now
and I have been privileged to meet some incredible
human beings.
May I say that I much prefer to gain a friendship with
someone through their thoughts and feelings about things
that are important to them.
It makes me feel bonded to them in a way that just
a meeting in person and surface conversation just can't deliver.
It also makes me feel very humbled to get to know
people that I otherwise would NEVER have the
opportunity to meet.
Thank you Momza for letting me Drop in on you and
still be greeted with such a warm and gracious greeting.
It has long been one of my desires to meet you in person,
and the bonus was that I was able to meet a lot of your
special yahoos.
I want you to know that your friendship is dear to me. And I
hope that this is the beginning of a long and lasting friendship.

My women at the Well!
Being socially inept, I find reading people's blogs a very fulfilling and uplifting way of being social in spite of my inabilities.
That being said I want to share with you women that make my life fun and give me uplifting moments all at the same time.
Momza over at Momzas house is a dear friend I have never met. She constantly gives me food for thought and a chuckle a day. I love you Momza!
CJane is another woman I admire and wish to emulate. She writes beautifully and is not ashamed to put it all out there. She shares deeply personal realizations and that gives me so much tenderness for her sensitive spirit. Thank you so much Courtney Jane!
Stephanie Nielsen is another AMAZING person I have met through blogdom. She is the strongest and most inspirational person on the planet. She lives and loves and shares her gratitude through trials and tribulations and continues to insert laughter andentertainment to the masses. What a woman, and she has the most beautiful eyes! Thank you Nie Nie.
Karen is another wonderful, dear, kind, spirit that emulates love and tenderness for her amazing family. They are obviously the 'light in her life' (as well as Dan the man) and her example lifts and edifies me on a daily basis. Karen you give me such hope for the future and the present and I can't thank you enough.
Jenifer at Gordon Gossip is nothing short of miraculous. She carries me along on her travels inthe real world as well as in the blog world giving me insights into a much bigger world then I am aware of. Jenifer you are one of my heros!
My darling niece Tara is a true light for me.
