Sisters, sisters, there were never such devoted sisters…


My all time favorite movie is White Christmas. I have to watch it every holiday time. It is a must! I especially love the sister’s act and song they sing because I think of my very dear and special sister!

I am staying at her house this week. Yesterday we drove to Pike’s Peak…well she drove and on the way up I clung to the seat leaning left when the curves and road seemed to want to go off into the clouds. It was a beautiful drive and day. On the way down we listened to John Denver sing Rocky Mountain High and belted out tunes along side him. My mind was more at ease around those curves that I suddenly didn’t even notice. Distractions are a good coping tool in such cases!

I am unwinding…phew! I didn’t even want to get out of bed today. I will be knitting on the deck soon after finishing up this and going for a walk in the Colorado sunshine. This afternoon we are heading for a two hour facial experience complete with a neck/shoulder massage. I will be a pile of mush later this afternoon. They may have to carry me out in a stretcher if they want me to leave…’no, you can’t make me leave!’

My sister spoils me. I love her for that and just for whom she is—a kind, hearty, sweet, gentle soul. She is very successful in her work endeavors and I am very proud of her for that too.

I am so very fortunate to have her as my sister and so very grateful for the close relationship that we share. Not everyone gets to be close to their siblings. I am a very lucky woman! Sisters, sisters, there were never such devoted sisters!

For whom in your life are you grateful for in this very moment?
