The Dells and a true wonderment of a woman

Well, it sure has been quite awhile since I opened the blog. A post from last February is all I have to show for the year. It's been eventful for sure with visits from a couple of my girls, lots of added friends on Facebook, people blocked, people added, adventures and the addition of a Kindle to my "vast" technological world. Love the Kindle! Amy had one with her when she visited and also brought her GPS. Of course I absolutely had to have one of those didn't I? Well, fer shur, fer shur. Used it once to get back for the LaCrosse Airport just to see if I could. Hers was beneficial when we went to visit Wisconsin Dells and locate a friend in nearby Hancock, WI. 

Guess that new friend deserves a blog entry dedicated to one of the most inspiring young women I've met. Seriously injured in a drunk driving accident at the age of 24, Jenny inspires hundreds of folks with her chutzpa and her positivity. Winner of the Jefferson Award this summer and public speaker (that's how I met her), Jenny Addis is one motivational woman. She may never see the words of praise I put here but check out How I Roll on Facebook and get acquainted with this best kept secret from Hancock, WI.

Blessings to all.

Happy February

Another January is history. Exciting for me, the fact that in 20 days I will hit a new watermark.... 70 years on planet earth. As I look back over the past several years I see many things that I've done that are worthwhile and memorable. I also see areas that still need work. Guess I better get with the program. If I am to do any changing in the near future I will need to lean harder on God and rely less on my own understanding. He even said so in His Word. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding." If all else fails follow the directions.
