I was asked to do this meme by a few people quite a while ago. My hubby was home for two weeks and for two weeks we've been running steady. It's funny how one person can put such a different twist on your life and how you live each day. Any way, he left today and so now I thought I would take some time for myself and actually do this. So, here you go....

Can you ever go home? It's a good question, but now that I've been back here for a little more than four years, I thought it was time to change my title and in the process maybe actually get back into blogging assuming I'm not lost forever in this place we call the world wide web.
About Me
- Bonnie
- I am a mother of one tween and two teens and the wife of a man who I love. I am the follower of a Lord and Savior that is living, real and my everything. I love to spend time with friends, even though I don't do it very often, I love my job and I love going to my kids sports events. I golf with my husband, even though I don't do it well, he is always very patient with me. My life is good, not perfect, but good. I am happy.
...but the greatest of these is LOVE
