A Post...

because I feel like I want to post something. And I find myself posting through pictures lately, but I suppose there's nothing wrong with that. As we all know, 'a picture says a thousand words'.... Or just a few, but whatever. They're still nice sometimes. I know I always want a picture when someone is telling me of something they're involved with, or someone. Pictures are valuable.

This is me in Florida, at the beach, with my newly manicured nails (first manicure ever), and I was studying like mad to write poetry. I just didn't write any.

This is my grandma, my Nana. Grace Muldowny Doud Odell. She's amazing. She's such a role model of genorosity, and faith, and kindness, and I love her so dearly. So many of my memories have her in them. This is Nana trying to figure out the 28 cents that were off in her checkbook. She did it! But this is also Nana as she is every morning, as she does her daily readings and says her prayers for her family. She is such a strong woman. I already miss her, miss getting to wake up every morning and walk into the kitchen and see her right here, at this little table, usually with my mother sitting across from her.

Adam's and my friend Jonathan is visiting tonight. Tomorrow I get to see Natasha, and go camping. I feel blessed with the family and friends I have, and I feel that I should never be lonely, or sad. I get angry with myself when I feel lonely or sad. But I guess that's the way of life, sometimes. Regardless, let it be said here that I know that I am fortunate!!

Happy Friday to everyone!!
