  • How in the world are we already halfway through 2024?! Now that we've hit the halfway mark, we decided to sit down and reflect on the first half of the year, see how we're doing in some key areas, and look forward to what the rest of the year may bring.
    So far, this has been a really great year. We don't take that for granted, and we're so incredibly thankful.

    I’m sure it might sound odd to hear that this whole cancer journey has been so worth it. Adam has groceries delivered to my door, he pays my bills online, his brother pays for a housekeeper for me and a yard person. My life has never been easier! Even after I started feeling better last year and I told Ronnie that I probably didn’t need so much help around the house - his response was mom you’re 75 years old, let’s just keep her on.💕 i’ve raised two incredible sons who i’ve always been proud of and well into their adulthood I continue to count my blessings. I am giving the first part of 2024 a nine.

      Heck yeah! The fact that you beat cancer and get to still be making memories in 2024 make it a 10 for sure! Also, don't forget to send me your grocery order... Ha!

    I would give this year a 7 so far. There has been some hard stuff that should make that number lower but through it all God has been faithful and we have much to be thankful for! On Mother's Day, Chris had a TIA which was very scary and then a few weeks later he had to have 2 surgeries for kidney stones. Praise the Lord he has recovered and we are currently on a road trip that we have been planning for a few years - the International Selkirk Loop. It has been beautiful! Our next trip is next month to Ohio to meet our new grandson and we have our first cruise planned for 2025, which seems like forever away, but will be here before we know it!
    Congrats on 9 years on RUclips, weight loss, and adulting like rock stars!
    ❤️ - Chantel

    This year has been an 8 for me as well. Weight loss with a solid change in my relationship with food. Retirement allows for an increase in volunteer work. Great family time. Looking forward to first trip to Alaska this summer - planing time in Denali but Riley fire will make that decision for us. Heaviness continues with hostages in Gaza and the war. Watching and listening to you made increased the rating from 7 to 8. Thanks for being a breath of fresh air even when it's big stuff.

    It's been a kind of rough year so far. But I just keep trying to stay positive!
    January we had -43° wind-chill and had an electrical fire at our house. The contractors are very very very slowly putting the inside of the house together. But we were lucky. We caught the fire and it was put out before there was a lot of damage. We had already planned to stay the night at my mom's house, so we had us and our son, our dogs, extra clothes and everyone's medication with us. So that was a huge blessing! We were all safe!
    Thankfully my mom lives close by and she welcomed us into her home, with our two dogs. None of us thought it was going to be 5 1/2 months though... And still counting.
    Then in February one of our dogs passed away suddenly. He was 11, and we're wondering if the anxiety of moving to a different house, a house that already had 2 dogs, was too much for him. 😢
    But we're thankful that we still have our other dog (who still doesn't get along with my mom's Saint Bernard).
    Our son who is 4 now, has been on seizure medication since before his first birthday. He has had the hardest time learning to talk, only being able to get out one word at a time and they were very few different words. His doctor and neurologist told us that he might now really be able to speak. Work on using alternative ways to communicate. We switched to sign language for him. And it was going great!
    But in March our son was winged off of his seizure medication and his speech has just been growing and growing! He talks almost nonstop now! And we wouldn't have it any other way!
    Life is full of good stuff and bad stuff. But if we only see the bad, we'll miss all of the good!
    You're videos definitely help me be reminded of the good, when the bad seems to keep coming. Thank you!! 😊

    I love love your channel. Thank you for sharing your journeys with us. The first half of the year I spent time in Hawaii to be with my Dad until he passed away. My husband and I drove to Flagstaff AZ to celebrate our 26th wedding anniversary. I started to read my first book of the year. My goal is for 2 books. Don’t have any travel plans. But October 2025 I have booked a Princess cruise to the New England & Canada leaving from New York. Thank you and God bless the both of you!❤ It’s been a 6 for me.

    Every year starts out a 10 and then gets lowered only if something really bad happens. My husband has been experiencing some health issues but those seem to be getting under control, so I'm thankful for that. I started a new business and it's slow going but I'm loving the work of it so that's good. I am caregiver for my 94 year old father who lives with us and I am homeschooling our 12 year old daughter. They are both doing well so that's good too. Our son, who serves in the Coast Guard, and his wife got restationed to a port only about 6 hours from our home so we have been able to see them more which is awesome. I am most looking forward to a short little 4 day cruise that my sister and I are taking in October. We both just need to get away and I am counting the days. So far, I'd say my year is still a solid 9 !

    I've been to DC once for work. It was mid Sept and it was still hot. One thing I enjoyed was a DC trolley tour in the evening. The monuments are stunning at night when they're all lit up. I wanted to see a show at the Kennedy Center but not enough time. Go to Nando's Peri Peri for chicken. We don't have them on the west coast.

    Great video! Mid year check in on life. Sherri, love how you have been tackling the health issues. Be proud of dropping 30 pounds. I need to do the same, what is one step you took to achieve the weight lose. This year is our 40th anniversary and we are doing an Alaska cruise, next week. It’s finally here. 🎉 1st cruise ever. Blessings on your days into the second half of 2024. 🦩 Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸😎

We are headed to Louisiana next wee to visit Brooklyn and TJ and in September we are fulfilling one of Audras life dreams. We are going to Florida!!! Headed to Disney World and Universal. Work is SO good for Derrick. He finally has found his career and he loves it. I am in a MUCH better work environment with an incredible boss . We feel blessed, even through the trails.
