Empty Nest

Today has been filled with bittersweet emotions for me.  Our last child to move out and

'fly the nest' did so today.

 

My heart is a bit overwhelmed, my emotions are raw... Both my parents are gone and I can no longer reach out to them... Our sons are wonderfully grown and now living on their own... My husband retires in 17 work days after 32 years of service... Whether I feel it or not, all these events in my life tell me I am growing older... Where did the time go?

I am thankful of the blessings and trials God has allowed me to experience in my life.  

Like a good novel, each chapter is good to the very end, so I joyfully await the next chapter in my life.

Hum, I wonder what is in the next chapter?

   

Vintage Connections - a new look to my blog... Take a peek

Most of us make changes of some kind as we enter each new year.  

With my list of changes, one was to change the look of my blog.

I started my blog in 2011 and have learned so much since then...

And I am one to constantly move things around for new ideas.

Let me know your thoughts on the new look of my blog. 

Your comments are always appreciated!
