I know it has been weeks since I blogged. One of my siblings nudged me about it last weekend. I sometimes get into a mood where the desire to blog wanes, especially when there is nothing really to blog about other than to complain about something, work, lack of extra work, the weather, not getting warm fast enough...you know that sort of thing. I figured instead of being negative all the time, I just wouldn't blog.
But I have something happy and exciting to write about today. On Sunday, my youngest got engaged!! We are so excited for her and look forward to helping with her wedding plans, even though that includes covering the costs! LOL. She has been dating this nice guy that she actually knew from college for about 2 years and he made certain not to propose in a cliche manner on a standard engagement holiday like Valentine's Day. Instead he asked her on St Patrick's Day. I'll have to ask him if he has any Irish in his bloodlines.
There was an engagement party right after the proposal up near his folks home. We didn't go because it would have required us to stay overnight, but my daughter and future son-in-law did stop by here on Sunday on the way back and we had dinner all together and got to hear the details of the proposal and see her sparkling new engagement ring in person. I'm so glad that she has found a wonderful guy that she can love for years to come.
Some other good news is that my sister from Ohio is coming next month to visit. She was going to come in the fall but injured her food and had to postpone the drive out here. It will be nice to see her and visit without having to be around a funeral and sadness (as she was here for mom's funeral last summer).
That's it for now. Can't make any promises but will try to blog soon.
