Over the last few months

Wow, time really does fly-by..
It's been months since I last wrote. I'm not sure if that's good or bad.
I think my life has been very busy, which is the good part. The downside is that I also haven't had anytime for myself.
Lots has happened over these absent months. The birth of a new Granddaughter, Riley Lynn, whom I pray that I will meet someday.
My Mom has had a pacemaker installed.. she truly has a bionic heart!
My brothers family came for a visit, which was wonderful! I got to visit with his children and wife. Time does fly-by too quickly.
My laptop quit on me.. still not sure what is wrong. One place said the motherboard, another said dust heating up the unit. All I know is it's not working.
I bought a Samsung Tablet.. I love it, but it's not the same as a laptop.. so, I CHARGED a laptop and I'm back on line.. Yahoo! Guess that's what prompted me to update my blog.
My youngest daughter has been having migraines. She came and stayed with me for about 3 weeks so that I can help her while she weaned the baby. It worked. I love spending time with my granddaughters. They are the light of my life. Every moment is a blessing.
I long to have a relationship with my other grandchildren and pray that someday there will be a healing with my children so that we can ALL be together again, better than before.
Until than, I wait.
I'm spending more time painting. I've sold one of my paintings so far. I have showings lined up for the next few months and some leads on galleries in the area. I'm hoping that I can at least pay for my oils and canvas. I'm also interested in photography to help develop my eye. The flower posted is one of my pictures I took in my sisters yard. I post on google+ and enjoy seeing all of the inspiring photos and posts from around the world.
I haven't had any really bad flare ups.. just ones that keep me down for a day or two. Pain daily, but that's normal. I'm continuing to eat organic and healthy. Drink green tea a lot. I know this helps to keep my fibro under control. I can tell if I stray, my pain level peaks, and will increase my joint pain. Mostly in my arms, elbows, wrists and fingers. If I go longer than one day, it will increase my all over pain level. So, I don't do that often.
I am working on an exercise program now that my mom is more stable with her pacemaker. I can go for walks and not stress about her. it's good to get out and away.
Walking has always been very difficult with fibro, but I'm determined to go slow and enjoy getting out into the fresh air. I'm going to make it work.
Well, that's it for the update..
