2021 Was a challenging year

-

 My last post was January.3 2021.  Ten days later my brother passed away from Covid.  He got sick in early December.  Years back my brothers family and I bought 57 acres and we settled there as neighbors. In early December 2020 I think most all of us had covid. The rest of us recovered though he passed away. John and I both developed some long covid issues.  I am so blessed that we have each other.  We have found medical help that treats long covid issues.  And we are working on all issues.  In the mean time we are living a pretty great life.  

We took a great vacation in September of 2021.  We took the pickup and travel trailer and went to Yellowstone, Montana, Wyoming, and South Dakota.  It was a beautiful trip. In the time since We have bought a motorhome, Can Am Spyder, and we have made some awesome trips   We live inTexas- where I still work in the large remodeled RV that John made for me.  It is set up on a section of my property and I work in it when in Texas.  We are there one week and at his beautiful place in Oklahoma the other week.  When there I limit my work to teaching and coaching online. 

What a life!  I still want to write this blog to let others know that no matter what we can have good times ahead.  It seems to me that there just isn't enough love in this world now.  

So while this post has been to catch up on a really difficult time the following ones will focus on finding love late in life.  Reconnecting with a long-ago special person.

December 24, 2018 Evening.... Christmas Eve. This was my third Christmas totally alone. And it was the third one that my friend Micah insisted I spend with her family so I would not be alone.  There was food, there were games, kids, adults, laughter, fudge, more food, gifts, and pictures being posted to facebook with me getting tagged to them. So my phone kept buzzing.  I had lived in this community since 1992. I left a bad marriage and moved to the slower country life of Wise County Texas.  When I lived here long enough I filed for divorce and settled down to live on a few acres with dogs, horses, goats, and ducks/chickens/geese.  I commuted to the office I had in Dallas where I worked in partnership with my mother in a Natural Health business.  It was a life long passion for me.  Time marched on with me living single and my mother getting older. In 2001, she had her 80th birthday. She sold her house and moved in with me.  In the following ...

As 2019 came to an end.

I have decided that there just isn’t enough good news in this world.  I am updating this blog and I will share stories from My Unanticipated Life  regularly.  2019 year end update.  Sunday Morning.  For many years now Sunday mornings have been tough. I have posted the song Sunday Morning Coming Down so many times.  Sunday is the day for family. Couples. And when you are alone Sunday’s point out how alone alone can be.  Don’t tell me about prayer. I only survived that time on prayers. Mine and others praying for me.  I never prayed for a man to come into my life. Heck no.  My work, my pets,  and myself..all traveling under God’s umbrella. That was all I ever considered for my life. But Sunday’s were the day that God let me feel the need to not be alone.  Never considered that there was another alone person praying for someone special in their life.  And a hook up from Heaven was made.  Christmas Eve last year (2018) John fo...
