June 1, 2013 What's going on

The time has passed quickly...yet not really. It's been 4 months since Mom passed away. I can't tell you how many times a day I think... "I have to tell Mom about that or ask her this" and then I remember. I think of her every day and at least once every hour....but I don't cry every hour. There are actually days that I don't cry and others that I will cry for a few hours. It's very lonely without her...she was my best friend. I miss Mom...a lot. It's been raining ...a LOT! I think the reporters said it's rained every day (not all day) for 24 days so far. Gloomy gray skies and now the mosquitos are out. We went to a bonfire next door Friday and I came home with 15 bites on my ankles hand and neck...that's not counting the bites on my head, unreal. We had to leave early because I was getting eaten alive and yes, they bit through my compression stockings. Those buggers can get through anything....did you know that only the females bite? Males are just for breeding. My son Jason and his wife Mariah had a little girl on Feb 1st. Zandyr...she's pretty cute. I went to see her in April. The boys love her and are already protective. So now there are 4 boys and a girl. Gage will be coming for a visit June 22nd until July 28th. This will be his last year(?) visiting because he wants to work during the summer next year. So starting next year, maybe, I will be going out there to visit during the summer, an extra visit a year YAY! Zandyr at 2 months
