A New Day

Im sitting here looking out of my dining room window at the wonderful birds that frequent our back yard. We live on the edge of a wildlife refuge which means we get many different sorts of birds and fowl in our backyard. Magpies, red-winged black birds, pelicans, robins, herons, bald-eagles, golden eagles, owls, foxes, deer, cows, and many other birds that I dont know the name of.

Im so excited. I have not mentioned yet my love for Adam Lambert and his wonderful music. Tomorrow he starts his Glam Nation Tour in PA. N & I have tickets to see him in Boise in July. I cant wait! :) 

Today I called a real estate agent to put our house on the market to sell. I have mixed feelings on this as we have been struggling financially for a few months. We need to get out from under our mortgage. It is burying us. Also, our home is just too large for us. We need to downsize and it has become apparent that now is the time to make it happen. But, there are things I will miss here. The #1 thing is the beautiful view I am looking at right now with the fields and animals right behind our house. The immense joy and pleasure that our family has gotten from the beautiful animals and birds will be so missed. We will just have to find a way to fill that void with frequent trips to the wildlife refuge. We do not have an idea of where we want to live or what sort of home. Things to be worked out in good time.

Signing off...T.

Well, here we are. I mean here I am. If you are reading this I guess it is now "we".  I have been wanting to put my life in print for a while now as so many interesting and amazing things have happened to me. At least I see them as interesting and amazing.  I dont know how this is going to go but I am going to give it a try. I will always be honest in my blog. However, for certain reasons, names may be changed to protect the innocent. And the guilty.

My life has many different sides to it. I am married and have been for 31 years. I have 3 wonderful grown sons, none of whom are married. My husband and I own a business. We are avid Montana Grizzly fans. Mostly football as my husband and youngest son "J" played football in high school.  I have learned to love football and even now I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable in the basics. My husband "N" and I are trying to enjoy the wonderful outdoors that we have at our doorstep. We live in a beautiful area of Montana. A small town. We can drive 20 minutes in any direction and literally be in a wilderness area.

I have so many things to write down, that my head and thoughts are a mess. Some of what I write, you may not believe to be true. But thats OK. Im only here for me. So if you find any of what I say to be outrageous or hard to believe, well, join the group.  :)
