Earrings

Who'd of thunk it???  My right ear lobe has never healed and the left one is sore to touch!!  You know what courage it took for me to get my ears pierced (again!  after several years!).  It makes me feel sad as I was looking forward to wearing earrings all the time.  I took the beautiful little pearls out yesterday and am thinking...it's not going to happen after all.  Trying to look better and take better care of my appearance so it's a bit sad BUT compared to the reality of life challenges?...this is absolutely nothing!  I'm sure I can find some of those ear pinching old clip-on earrings and wear them!

Pressure is mounting with this Family get-together.  We are now going to our Grandson's new home in Tri-Cities.  As the Mom, and still having total co-dependent behavior at times like these, I'm wanting to do it all and my adult super-capable daughter has taken the reins and in my mind we are sort of word-battling and each saying the same word...NO!!  I'm the gatherer and looking forward to that task for our Christmas party gifts.  The list is becoming smaller and smaller of promised attendees... with jobs interfering!

I still think I need to help Terry into car and whisk him off on a road trip to visit our Utah/Nevada sons!  Whisking would be necessary as he is not on the same page as me!

There are lots of family gatherings going on around here.  A girl that was my Laurel years ago is visiting her parents.  I missed Church on Sunday and didn't get to see her.  She has 11 children and they are going to the Temple to have the last 3 children sealed to them.  I showed a picture of her before.  Anyhow I got invited to go to the Temple and witness the sealing but our Temple is so small and their family is huge so today I volunteered to step aside.  won't that be a bit of heaven on earth?
sigh.  I can hardly wait to see pictures!!!

So much to do and so little oomph to do it!
