Nashville Tenn

We are here at our first stop. It is cold and we saw some beautiful snow driving here.

We did a little sightseeing and shopping this afternoon.

We love the Pro Bass Store. It is great just to walk around in and see all the exhibits they have.

Remember the Dukes of Hazzard? We visited the little museum and store they have here in Nashville/

 The General Lee

Daisy Duke's Jeep

They had their own little Walk of Fame close to the museum.They had quite a few hand and foot prints.
Cold but enjoyable afternoon.

Up early and headed toward Oklahoma City.
Please continue to pray for our safety on this journey.
Until Next time
God Bless

Traveling Styles

What style of traveler are you? Structured or Spontaneous? There are many styles of travelers.

My daughter Jaime I would call a travel agent with a itinerary. We have great trips and see unusal
and different things. She researches and finds roadside attractions for us to see. She has the mileage the time
and the place all lined up. Her dream is to visit every American state and do at least one attraction in that
state. We just about have the east coast taken care of. Our next road trip is coming up and I shall enjoy
keeping you up on our adventure heading west.

My husband and I are repeaters. We like to go to the sameplace more than once.There are so many
things and places to see that most of the time it can't be done in one visit.I try to have a few things
planned and then the rest we play it by ear as the old saying goes. Plus unlike my girl Jaime we like to
rest and do nothing at times.

But truth be told I love any kind of traveling New places, old places doesn't matter to me just say
let's go and I am packed and ready.

I am thankful and do not take for granted this blessing of being able to travel on a shoestring budget.
P&J is great while traveling down the road.

A quote with no name attached to it
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take
 but by the moments that take our breath away"

Until next time

ETC/ Mama/Assisted Living

Relief
Thankfulness
Peace
Contentment

It is with a deep sigh of all the above. My Mama likes her new living arrangements and is content to
be there.
So many sleeplessness nights and prayers went into this decision and Thank God it seems to have
been the right one.
She has gained five pounds so the food is good. She is getting her hair and her nails done every week.
Mama is taking part in the activities each day and enjoying her time. Bingo is her favorite thing and it
is played a couple of times a week Life is good for her and she deserves every minute of it.

Until next time
God Bless

CAREGIVER

I have been taking care of my Mama since my Dad passed in 1998. She has lived with us for many of those
years. Tomorrow will be the beginning of a new chapter.

It has been a very hard decision to make. We have talked it over and both of us have decided to
move her into a Assisted Living facility. I have thought and prayed over this many sleepless nights.
I want her last years to be as comfortable and easy as they can be.I believe this will be a good
situation for her.She will get help with her daily needs, it will be easier for her to move around in
her wheelchair.I think most of all she will be with folks all day her age and will be able to take
part in ongoing activities they have there. She can just roll down the hall and get her hair done
and much more.

It helps me to share this with you because as I said this is not a easy decision. Please pray
with us about this new chapter. Pray that this will be a good situation for her and that she
will make new friends and enjoy her new living arrangements.

Also say a prayer that the financial assistance will be approved .

Until next time'
God Bless
Linda
