51 years young

Thought that would be a good laugh later down the road. LOL

Today has been a lot of stress and headaches. Everyone seems to think I'm made of money and I just need a little time to get myself back on track.

Tomorrow will be my 51st Birthday here on earth. There are days when I didn't think I would make it this far.  But here I am writing about it. I have raised 3 kids with the help of my husband. I know I could not have done it without him. I would have gone 5150 by now. I think today I just want to think back on the birthdays of yesterdays. The one where we went to Boise Idaho to visit for the Summer. It was always so much fun. First we would visit my grandparents, We would usually stay with my mom's parents. They had a 3 bedroom on up on the bench, that's what my parents called it anyway. Part of the fun was when my grandpa Hatch would take us to the local Dairy Queen. we would get a DQ ice cream pop on a stick. It would be covered in chocolate or different flavored hard coating. My brothers and sister would love to eat those. Thee other part is that we usually went in August just before school. So we were always back in Boise for my birthday. We would have a big family get together at the part across the street from my Grandma Hochstrasser's house or we would have it in her back yard. It was the best for me. That changed as I got to be a teenager. and Girls camp for the church came into play. By that time my grandparents on both sides weren't doing as good. I lost my grandmoghter Hatch in 1974 and My Grandfather Hatch in 1979. My grandmother Hochstrasser I lost when my daughter Melisa was just born. We took her back for a family reunion that first year just after her birth and Grandma Hochstrasser was able to hold her for the first and last time. I miss my grandmother Hochstrasser very much she was a good cook when I grew up. And she did a great job teach my aunt linda how to cook. So I have been trying to learn as much as I can from this wonderful Aunt of mine.

Ok so enough of the sappy stuff or family history which ever it is.

My headache is the fact that getting ready for this reunion in Boise is about to be a bust and thats all I want for my birthday and 30th Anniversary is to go to the family reunion. Now 2 cars are in the shop and I don't know how much it will cost to fix them. So I'm tweaking about the fact of money right now.

Ok the word is in $200 for both cars that is the best that I could have hoped for. Now I can breath and plan for my trip, I hope unless Satan comes up with something else.

All I know is that I want to thank my Heavenly Father for the save to day I was just not in a good place, and now I am. Thank you so much for answering my prayers.
