Freakin’ Drama!

We had a wonderful Christmas day with all the grandkids, kids, and friends.  Couldn’t ask for a more blessed day and then…..it all went to hell in a hand basket.   All I want to say is that my youngest son’s ex-wife is MEAN, HORRIBLE, down right AWFUL!  Her own mother said she is bi-polar and is unstable.  And yet, she is out to totally destroy all that is good around my son.  And it could go either way.  My baby boy does NOT deserve this kind of misery and she just keeps going, and going, and going with terrible things.  I know….no, EVERYONE knows him and what she is doing is just hurting everyone.  I am praying to God that everything works out.  The whole thing is making me sick to my stomach and this is just one thing that is just unforgiveable. 

So, I was cruising on the digi forums and there was a posting about ‘One-Word’!  The ‘one-word’ that I will use during 2009.  So, this year’s word is: HOPE!  Here are some words: wish, optimism, faith, dream, chance, possibility, anticipate, expectation, aspiration, anticipate, plan, likelihood, look-forward.  My wish is that there is less stress, a drama-free year!  I have to be optimistic that everything will work out for the best.  My faith in God and that He will see us through this.  A dream that DH and I will be able to go on a vacation this coming year….like….to a beach, with a drink in my hand, no cell phone, and listening to some Kenny Chesney music!  Just by chance, some people can be happy and help to make life happy for others.  I could keep going with all the words but I plan to use these as I go along my journey.

And, there’s some fabulous news coming with some CT announcements this week.  I am totally thrilled and had to read the e-mails a couple of times just to make sure that what I was ready was really true!  OMG!!!!  You know I’ll be screaming when I see the announcements.  Y’all better plug your ears!  LOL

Here’s some photos from the big day!

Bill cooked a beef brisket for dinner and boy, did he do a fabulous job!  Yes dear, it was good!

A silly father and son moment!  This is definitely two of a kind!

Bill and our youngest grandson snuggled up on the chair.

Family photo….don’t know why they were the only one’s I seemed to have captured.

Billy’s HUSTLER shirt that he just loved!  More like a wannabe!

The surprise!  Yep, I got him a GPS!  HA!

Sarah and Diesel-Boy!  He’s the only dog I let in the house.

That look is priceless!  I have never seen a 3-year-old so happy to get clothes for Christmas!

She was happy and content while being held by her daddy!

His sweet nature comes out!  He loves my dessert….THE GOOD STUFF!

And me, on the floor with the grandbabies, putting the toys together and playing cars!  Why do I get stuck with things like this?  Cause the babies like it!  LOL

Hope you all had a great day.  I’m HOPING for things to get better around here. 

And here’s to 2009!
