A New Grandson

Well it has been a while since I blogged. I have been so addicted to researching my genealogy that I have neglected this site. On April 30, 2009, we were blessed with the arrival of Bryson Wayne Thompson. He is so precious. God has really been good. We have been struggling with my disability. I have not worked since Nov 2008 when the doctor ordered me to be on oxygen 24/7. Wayne had been laid off for about 2 months but has since returned back to work. It has really been difficult but God has provided in every way. I can't thank Him enough for all he has done!!

Feeling Blue

Just wanted to write a few things about what I am doing today. I have been resting my knee pretty much all day. I have moderate arthritis and spurs in my right knee. Getting around is difficult. I have the help of a quad cane but still, there is pain. I wish I could get out and do more things. I'm tired of being stuck in the house all day. I have been on FMLA from work for the past few months. I want to get back full time. I haven't had the energy to create anything for a while except some picture coaster books I made for my daughter Ashlee for her birthday and my nephew Joshua for his graduation. I will try to take some pics of some of the things I have made and post them real soon. I love to pixel but haven't done anything in quite a while. I kinda got burnt out. My father is still in the hospital and I hope he comes home soon. The doctor's tell him his time is limited. I will miss him dearly. Maybe some of this unenthusiasm I have is due to depression. I have a lot going on right now. I'm exhausted. There is one thing that really cheers me up though and that is my grandson, Zachariah. I included a pic. Isn't he the cutest!

My First Blog

Well... I thought I would just jump in and create my first blog. Seems like many people are doing it. I wanted to have a place where I could write my thoughts and talk about my interests and my family.
