December... WOW! Where did the year go??? Hard to believe I have been on this boat for 6 months! I have been feeling alot better about things this last week. In part thanks to our daughter Crystal, I got a care package from her containing a tiny little Christmas tree with homemade ornaments from the grandkids, a wonderful letter and some chocolates.... they ALWAYS make me feel better. LOL. I also did something for me.... I found a Curves here in Port Orchard and I joined. I LOVE it! Can I afford the $34.00 a month??? Heck no! But I did it anyway. Getting up in the morning and going to Curves, working out, laughing and visiting with the other girls.. I feel great all day. It puts a smile on my face, it makes me happy. Gives me a reason to get outta bed and get dressed. This is the best thing that has happened since I moved on this DANG boat! Tomorrow is the Festival of Lights in downtown Port Orchard. There is a pet Parade and Zoe is gonna be dressed as an Elf. She looks so cute in her costume! Zoe of course HATES it.... but heck, it is the Holiday, I'm sure she can handle it for a few hours. I also have an Elf costume that I made from leftovers from the thrift shop. We are gonna have so much FUN! Free hay rides, Chile, a tree lighting, free hot cocoa... I can't wait! Nicole and family are gonna come down and join us for the day. It is nice to have a smile in my heart for a change! AND... to make today better our friends from back home, Scott and Denise came over for the Seahawks game yesterday.. (the Seahawks WON for a change HaHa) so they are taking the time to take the ferrie and drive to Port Orchard to visit us and take us to lunch.. How COOL is that!
It feels good to be me again instead of that GLOOMY GUSS who has been hanging around here! (I thing Ben is happy to see me in a better mood too! LOL)
