Feeling Down and Out
Am feeling incredibly low today. This picture perfectly illustrates the depths of despair I often find myself in these days. It's debilitating at times. Am so exhausted of trying to be strong. I know I have people who care about me and love me, but it doesn't alleviate the sadness.
Independence Day 2017
Here are a few pics of my precious grandchildren (and daughter in last pic). Grandbabies really do light up a mama's life. Missing a recent pic of my sweet grandson, Christian. Will post one later.
Below are the buds on a 'butterfly bush' at my mom's house. It really does attract a lot of butterflies.
This is my mom and youngest granddaughter. Mom got a hat for her great granddaughter because the sun was shining so bright. But she kept pulling it off. :)
A very Happy 4th of July! We got back from seeing a fireworks display about an hour ago, so now it's July 5th, but nonetheless, Happy Fourth. I made a big pot of chicken and rice soup and a blackberry cobbler for tomorrow.
This is what I'll be doing until I fall asleep. I have an ongoing case of chronic insomnia, and the only upside to it is that I've been devouring books. It's a great escape for me.

Just Checking Back In
Jigsaw Puzzles make me happy. Here are a couple I've completed. Since I've last posted...2 years ago...I have a grandbaby living with me. She's now almost 10 months old and I haven't had the time or energy to work a puzzle. Still have stacks of puzzles to do, but they'll have to wait.
This is my sweet new granddaughter, Anaya. She's grandbaby #5. I have #6 due in February 2018. I'm truly blessed.
I just finished reading "Camino Beach" by Amanda Callendrier. It was such a fun read - very comical. Am now starting "The Necklace" by Claire McMillan.
Quotes for the day:
Be back soon...I hope.
