Let me just say first and foremost God has been great to me in the last year.. My family faced many many changes and seem to making the adjustments that had to be made for the most part with a cheery heart and with an open mind. I am ever so thankful for that.. Don't get me wrong not all of it has been roses and sunshine..

I had major surgery with complications in july of 06, became a single mom, went through a divorce and got remarried.. I went for awhile with no car and life got pretty good for me after I was single.. It has been a pretty good year.. I have not had to worry about whether or not my ex was going to make my car payment and make me hide my van so it didn't get repoed, or whether or not the bills would be paid on time or whether the kids would have what they needed when they needed or get yelled at, threatened all the time, forced to do things I did not want to do and many other things..

My new hubby has been great to us. He does the repairs and takes care of the things that need to be taken care of. He pays the bills and loves us even on our unloveable days.. He is my best friend as well as my hubby and I thank God for Him..

This year has been full of changes and heartache, hurt, anger, bitterness, but also lots of happy loving thoughts.. My ex is much better daddy now and I think our being apart is for the best..  I hope and pray that the coming year is even better..

Sorry for rambling. I am off to bed now..

Good Night and God Bless,
