The "Broad" Cast

The title says it all.

My favorite title is "Mom". Joe is the best! I am a firm believer that God exists. I usually vote Democrat. What else do you want to know? Oh yes, I am fortunate enough to be blessed with a great family and good friends.

Well it is officially 2006! I promised myself to start using this blog to post my thoughts, feelings, etc. I brought in the new year with friends. Greg cooked dinner at my house. Bea, Anna, Mel, Dianne and Jaye joined us. Greg made a killer pasta with caesar salad. Then we all headed to Kileys for the show "A Tribute to Laugh-In" (which seemed to have very little to do with Laugh-In). It was painful at best but there were a couple of fun moments. Unfortunately it was only a couple and they were brief. It took several glasses of wine to get through it and I am suffering for it this morning. It seemed like the right thing to do at the time but because of that I got no quality time with Greg (I mean talking and reflecting). Today he is off to God knows where to do his own reflecting. I am left with a hangover and a kitchen full of dirty dishes!

It has been a year of obstacles but I am glad to say I have managed to leap over them. I lost my job back in September but was lucky enough to find another quickly. I thought I lost two friends that were dear to me because of some misunderstanding but thanks to Brooke all is forgiven and forgotten. It is nice to end the year speaking to everyone again! The situation taught me so much and hopefully I will take those lessons with me into 2006.

I did lose my favorite aunt to leukemia on 12/10. (That is her in the photo) That was a tough one. I believe there is a heaven and I know she is now "healthy and happy" once again. It is a comfort for me to know that but I wish for just one more moment with her. I suppose if I got that it would never be enough.

Well here is to clean slates and new starts. Happy New Year!

Wow! I'm so happy that you've joined us out here in "Blog Land." Happy New Year! Sorry about the hangover and miserable theatrical experience. We were at my sister's house eating prime rib and watching "The 40 Year Old Virgin." :-) Then off to church this morning to play keys and flute. After that, champagne brunch at Feed 'n' Fuel, and since then I've been snuggled in my bed like a toasty little bug listening to the wind howl and watching "Cinderella Man."

Here's to staying in touch and getting together more during 2006!! Love, JHS

P.S. -- Hey, how 'bout a link to my blog, "Colloquium"?
