  9. Your main man is so precious! Please give him a little hug & kiss for me. I want to just say Thank you for being the inspiration for me . I'm so proud of you for the journey you have had and for where you are today. You have restored my hope. I lost it due to the high intense physical pain I have been in for the last 3 years. Pain has taken me to a pretty dark place at times. But after the post you did on your hands, it touched the very depths of my soul as I, too, was abused many different ways. I wanted to personally Thank you for baring that part of your history with us.

  108. You rock and so does your blog. Where do you find all your energy? Beautiful baby boy - mine is almost 26. I am not sure where the time went. I have a feeling I don't need to tell you to cherish every moment because of all of your energy, creativity and loving nature, you are and always will be a fantastic mom! I look forward to reading your blog znd looking at your crafts. Both my mom and my grandmom could sew anything. They could see an outfit abd recreate it withoug a pattern. They refused to teach me or my sister to sew and I still regret that I can't sew and I just turned 60.

Someday I'll have a room like that lol. Nothing wrong with loving to ride a Harley. I've rode a few myself. I myself hate snow. I think it's because I've dealt with it all my life. I'm at that point where give me sunshine and gardening year round please. Maybe I'll be a snow bird and leave this frigid state we call Maine some day.
