Tina’s Treasured Thoughts

Hello everyone,

I have had a lot going on in my life.  The last time I wrote here was on August 6th and my daughter had gone home to Georgia after her visit here in Peru with me.  

Let’s see…… It took me a few days to adjust to being by myself again.   I am alone most of the time, since all the children are married, gone and have their lives.   I always feel a little down when I have someone visit and then they leave.   It seems to get worse as I age.   I had my 69th birthday on the 18th and it was great.   Got a laptop and then my friend Karen and I had so much fun shopping at Best Buy to purchase all the things I would need for it.   Got Verizon Wireless unlimited internet, a word program, then got off Norton’s and put AVG as my virus protection.   The saturday after my daughter went home, Karen and I scrapbooked at our scrapshack, 2 doors from me.    We turned a little house that we owned into a scraphouse for us to have for personal use.    How blessed we are to have it and then just leave everything laying untill we come back again.    Oh, went to Red Lobster (my favorite eating place) and ate way too much.   Had a large take out box for later.   Their cheese bisquits are so awesome.

Been crocheting granny blocks for  http://thiseclecticlife.com/2007/06/14/searching-for-people-with-big-hearts/  and I am so new at blogging, I can’t figure out where to post a comment on her site about what is going on with the granny squares.   I would like to know how she is coming along?   Does she have any afghans put together yet and how many more squares she needs?    Between myself and my friend Myrna, we have sent around 70 and have more ready to send.   Guess I need an update on her site.   She may have it and I just don’t know how to find it.   Help from anyone will be appreciated.

Today, I have to go get fitted for new lens for my glasses.   I had cataract surgery on both eyes about 1 1/2 years ago and I could see so good, but now it has changed and the stigmitism has happened and now I am going to wear glasses again.    Part of the aging process I suppose.

Well, dear friends, that is all for today.   I’ll try not to be so long getting back here again.
