About Me

As many of you know, my beloved husband Scott of 32 years past away in March. It is by far the most difficult thing I have had to journey through, and that journey is far from over. If you knew anything about Scott and I, you knew that we loved each other more than life despite the many difficult years that we had together. When you find out at age 30 that the love of your life has brain tumors you really discover each day how "to live like you are dying". We NEVER gave up hope! Anyway for those of you that care to read, as part of my healing process I've decided to blog. I am not a writer by any means., but so many people seem to think that this works and I'm willing to try anything to help deal with the pain. Let me start by saying, I am not angry with God. God gave Scott to me for a short period and I wouldn't trade the love that we shared together in Christ for anything. I recently told some people at Griefshare that Scott's diagnosis 22 years ago was a gift. It was difficult to hear, but we learned how to appreciate every moment that we had and so many people don't get that chance.

EMPTY NESTERS!!!!!!!!

Well, Scott and I are enjoying our first day of "empty nest." We moved Musette into the North Carolina School of Arts on Friday and Saturday in Winston Salem. I have a feeling that we will get very familiar with the hi-way between Raleigh and Winston-Salem. Her room looks like a typical dorm room which we spent all weekend trying to customize to Musette's style,(see pics below). Then she went her way with scheduled activities and the parents went another, only to re-connect at meal times. Scott and I were very impressed with the school as a whole and the administration made us feel very secure in leaving our daughter in their hands. The administration also stressed that if we were parents of a dancer (because the school caters to all of the arts) then we should be very proud as only 19 new dancers (that includes ballet and contemporary) were selected this year. The total enrollment for dancers is 134. Musette's room mate is a violin student and she will arrive on Monday from Iowa because she is a returning student.
I will start my full schedule this week at Meredith and St. Augustines and Scott will return to NRCA and his home students. The new school year has begun. I'm already looking forward to Thanksgiving.
