2015

Another New Year is upon us.  So many things, both good and bad, happened in 2014.  The one thing that I have learned over the years is that  we cannot live in the past, all we can do is learn from the past.  I have my sights set on the future and from what I can see the future is bright.  My goals have shifted and things that used to seem important in my life have changed as well.  I have taken a path to make myself and those important to me happy, but ME first.

I continue to look at what it is that makes me happy and what comes up is service to my country and community.  I still work as a Police Officer here at Furman University and also serve in the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary.  Both jobs are rewarding and I get to work with like minded people.  I have been blessed to be able to be active in my life and will continue to do so until I can no longer serve.

Merry Christmas!

It's Christmas Eve here and only a few more hours until Christmas day is upon us.  This is a lonely Christmas for me as it will be the first Christmas without my mother being here.  I miss her very much but do know that she is in a much better place and looking down on me.  I chose to work the holidays this year, I figured keeping busy would help me through the holidays and it seems to be helping.  I am going to spend Christmas with my kitties before I head off to work.  I hope everyone out there has a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
