I had lunch with my mother earlier, will enjoy dessert with my daughter soon and plan to write cards to my grandparents and friends I have not talked to in a while. Weird but this was going to be my night anyway. I am new to the team ... well at least participating ... and did not know her but I am so glad I will be able to honor A_New_Tara by keeping in touch with loved ones. Hugs to all who knew her.

I've been communicating more frequently with family in MN. And my FIL is still homebound, so I've been checking on them daily. I'll stick a card in the mail for him in the am. It will be a get well/appreciation card. He's an awesome father to both of us.

I use to appreciate her congradulations when I made a milestone, I'd learn from her before I knew sometimes.
I incited my mom in for coffee today and went to visit her at work this week. We have a strained relationship and it felt good to be relaxed around her.

Yesterday I talked to my Mom on the phone. She's my best friend and we talk often. She's been through a lot in recent years - cancer twice and a new diagnosis of ulcerative colitis - but at age 83 she's very strong and still swims a mile 3 times a week ! I love talking to her, we always end up laughing !

What a great way to honor someone special.
I have been gone all weekend t7o a Women's retreat with our church. Re-connected with several great women. I got back last night.
Sent an email to my oldest and dearest friend just letting her know how great she is. We've been friends since 1975!

My Father-in-law has been under the weather for a couple of weeks, and just staying home. We call and check on him regularly, but today we decided to scrap our plans and spend quality time with them. We all enjoyed time together visiting, and catching him up on all the deer pictures and critters we've been capturing on our deer cams. He misses coming out here and seeing them. It perked him up a bit too. It was nice to just have relaxed time visiting with them outside of a restaurant.
I'm very thankful for them, and I'm very blessed to have them.

I spent the day with my husbands family. I haven't felt well for a few days, I admit, I didn't go out of my way to tell them how much I appreciate them. I spent the afternoon trying to not spread my cooties very far. :(

What a great memorial. I will spend time this week reaching out to those that I haven't communcated with in a while. I was already thinking of doing this, so this challenge gives me more of a reason to do so.
I wrote a blog on Tara's passing and what a good friend she was. I still can't believe it. I am sending an email to a friend.

I left a message on her page.
We really don't kow when it's our time do we - I've had regrets in my life but none that involve people that were important to me. I try everytime I see them (or not) to tell them how much they mean to me. I have an Aunt that I only see at Christmas but I've known her since I was little - never thought to say anything to her about how much I truly appreciated and loved her until last Christmas. I took her aside and told her - I loved her - I loved that she'd been in my life forever - all that mushy stuff but you know I think a lot of telling people how you feel comes with maturity - age too - as you get older you see more and more of your family/friends/coworkers/etc pass (for whatever reason) and you look back at what you should/could have said or done and didn't. I no longer wait.

What a lovely way to honour such a lovely lady as Tara. I am sending a friend a card in the post and one to my sister. I am planning on giving my Husband little reminder of just how much he means to me as well by tucking a note under his pillow. It is important that we let those we love know that we care.

This weeks challenge will be about relationships. In honor of our own A_New_Tara
Lets find at least one person each day that is special to us, send a text, phone call, email or for an extra special touch, a real card in the mail... To let them know how much they mean to you. Maybe it's a friend you haven't talked to in a long time, or even someone you talk to regularly, just let them know you care.
Tara was very mindful of the relationships around her. She had good ones and ones that challenged her... But she was working on them. I think it is important for us to always remember those in our lives that need a hug or kind word.
If you can't think of people you know to reach out to... Then reach out to someone. Maybe a coworker you don't know very well, or someone sitting in a restaurant that looks like they could use a genuine smile and hello.
Come back daily and share who you are giving the extra special time to. Share the stories that go with them if you would like too. :)
