January 1st, 2014

One day gone in the New Year already. I managed to stay awake to welcome in the New Year...all alone ( as usual). I tried to face time the Saskatchewan crew but got no answer. I read for awhile and drifted off to sleep. At 2:30ish am. my phone gave a jingle and I knew that Laura was on her way home from work. We chatted as she walked to her car, and cautiously made her way home through the snowy weather. I should turn off my phone, but I have to confess that most times I don`t mind the wake up because I love to chat with her.

Once she was safely home, and sending me a photo of her late New Years kiss I rolled over and tried to fall asleep. That`s usually not a problem....I read and drift back to sleep. Well, hoping that this isn`t a peek into 2014.....I tossed, I turned, I ached ( my legs), I got up and walked, I put lotion on my feet and legs, I read my scriptures, I prayed, I read some more and finally at about 5:30am I found the world of sleep!!! None the less, I didn`t wake toooo early...9ish.

From there the day went like this:
