Photo's galore and memory's too

Part of my empty nest syndrome projects include redoing my photo albums. I have thought about it now for months. I didnt want to get into the project until I really knew what I was going to do and how. I finally bought the albums I want and then decided to pull everything out of my previous albums and seperate them by years. Then I will pick out the best pictures to put in my new albums to be on a shelf so that I can easily look at them and share them with friends and family in order. This is a very difficult job and I spend so much time reminissing about all the wonderful times our family has had. It is really a trip down memory lane. I have just started going through the pictures and already I am overwhelmed. It will be wonderful when the project is done and all organized as I dreamed. I want it to be a project I enjoy doing. But being the crazy woman that I am once I start a project I cant wait to finish it and I drive myself nutty. I hope I can enjoy the process. It is actually a very nice winter project. When spring comes I am cleaning out the attic. Sheila and Andrew moved into a larger house and have plenty of storage now, so since half the attic is Sheila's stuff I will pull it down and take it to her in Roxboro to put wherever she wants. Then my attic will be organized. Mostly! I know, I know. I am a little over the top with cleaning and organizing. But it is just who I am. I dont know if I would be happy if everything was clean and organized. So here's to my photo project.

New Year 2007

It's the new year. I dont know how it got here but it has arrived. I like the start of a new year. It seems like a chance to start over. I dont appreciate when I mess things up right away. But I usually do. With a harsh word or the same old mistakes of saying things that dont need to be said. I guess that is all part of being human. Thankfully God gives us new beginnings all of the time. With a new minute,hour,day,season, or year. We certainly need them. I do anyway. I appreciate all that God has done for me in the past and I really appreciate all that he will do for me in the future, including 2007. Happy New Year.
