YIKES!!!!

MR. MILES AT 20 MONTHS


RIDING ON THE JOHN DEERE TRACTOR
 


HIS UNCLE JUSTIN GAVE HIM!


 
ONE OF HIS MOST FAVORITE WORDS IS VAROOM!
 
WHERE HAVE WE BEEN?
 
LIFE HAS A FUNNY WAY OF MOVING YOU ALONG, SOMETIMES DOWN NEW AND EXCITING PATHS.
SOMETIMES LIFE SAYS SLOW DOWN AND SAYS TAKE A BREAK-FROM THE COMFORT OF OLD HABITS AND EVERYDAY LIFE. SOMETIMES A LITTLE VOICE INSIDE YOUR HEAD SAYS YOU HAVE EARNED THIS-GO PUT THOSE
 SNOWBIRD WINGS ON AND FLY.
SOMETIMES ONE TAKES A CHANCE AND JUMPS INTO A WHOLE NEW  EXPERIENCE THAT SETS OTHER LIFE CHANGES IN MOTION.
SOMETIMES ONE WANTS TO SHAKE UP THE NORM, PUSH HORIZIONS, LEARN NEW THINGS AND CELEBRATE THE NOW INSTEAD OF THE PAST OR FUTURE.
THE WIZARD AND I TOOK THAT STEP!
BIGGER THAN WE THOUGHT, HOTTER THAN WE THOUGHT AND LOVED  EVERY MINUTE OF IT. [WELL ALMOST ALL OF IT!]
THE DAY IT WAS 122 DEGREES, I CAN'T SAY I WAS THINKING HAPPY THOUGHTS!
 
WE DID BUY A SECOND HOME IN LA, QUINTA, CALIFRONIA AND I HAVE SPENT THE LAST FOUR MONTHS CAMPING OUT IN THE HOUSE [A BED, 2 STOOLS AND 4 LAWN CHAIRS FROM TARGET] WHILE WORK WAS DONE IN THE HOUSE.
NOW THAT DID PUSH MY BOUNDARIES A BIT.
IT IS TOO SOON IN MY JOURNEY TO KNOW YET WHERE ALL OF THIS WILL TAKE ME.
I HAVE RETIRED FROM ANTIQUING.
AM I DONE??? I DON'T KNOW.
DO I WANT NEW HORIZONS-YEP I DO.
SO THIS IS NOT GOOD BYE BUT IT IS THE END OF THIS CHAPTER OF ANNIE, FANNIE AND ABIGAIL.
I AM TOYING WITH DOING A NEW BLOG AND IF I DO-I WILL LET YOU ALL IN ON THE SECRET!
IT'S BEEN A BLAST!
MISS AND LOVE YOU ALL
DIANA

OMG! Diana, I've missed you! So good to hear from you. I'm happy for you and all your new adventures, but sorry to hear that you're burning up down there. We've had a beautiful summer here, even alittle hotter than normal for a long period of time. Can't wait for your new blog and what's on the horizon. I hope you'll come visit soon! Hugs, Joyce
