The Heart's Music Can Heal

                                                       If I could I'd give you a good night's kiss for beautiful dreams tonight.  Hope you had a good day despite all the snow yet again.  We had nasty freezing rain this morning, my son was able to beat it getting to school this morning in the car,  the buses made it in just fine, so my daughter made it ok along with the other students.  So, that was a blessing.  Another round of snow is heading in on Sunday, not looking forward to that.                                    ...

                                                             Its real early in the morning I know, Just got everything checked before going to bed.  Checking the door, making sure its locked, everything turned off and such, you know that routine.  I wanted to write you first though to tell you that I am thinking about you and praying things are improving a little up your way.    I hope you aren't doing anything you aren't supposed to.  I know its no fun to dig out from all that snow, just pray you have someone up there who will do that for ya.   I also pray your family are all doing well too!           ...

                                                              Hope and pray things are going as good as they can considering all the snow and wind.  Been very worried, thinking about you and how you and your family are coping throughout the storm.  I got tickled at a reporter covering the snow storm from Boston.  He was commenting how deserted the town was when this guy went past him on some skis, I had to laugh at that.  They tried catching the guy on camera, he was too fast.                                 ...

                                                             Been thinking about you all day Schizz, I pray all of you get through the storm alright.  We only got a very little taste of what of you are experiencing now.  School today (Monday) was canceled for the kids and Delaware was under a level 1 snow emergency until about noon.                                                         Watching the system go up the coast is something else if not a little frightening, so please be very careful, I know in your line of work, you are pr...

                                                             The last two days had a few bumps, I had taken on a little bit of dad's cold with headache , nausea and fatigue and Daisy had hurt her leg jumping off of the couch, but today she is up to her ornery little doggie self, playing with the cat.  I have also been watching the weather.  Listening to my weather band and watching the weather channel while fixing the meals last couple days.                                         ...

                                                      Hello Stephen, hope you had a pleasant evening.  I know, I'm writing late again, I'm up doing some laundry.  I know that's odd but my daughter asked me if I could wash something for school for her in the morning.  You know how that goes.  You more than likely have got ready for bed or already in bed.  Hope I didn't disturb ya.   Just wanted to check in and tell you I love you and I am thinking of you and praying everyone is doing fine.  I was working on the house some tonight other than the laundry.                       ...

                                                          Hope you are getting some rest.  I know its real late, I was working on some notes for my art work.  My memory pattern doesn't take long to get off track, so I have to write or organize some of it before I forget.  I saw Aunt Billie a couple weeks back and she looks real well.  She asked me If I am still doing my artwork.  I said yes.  I haven't felt up to it because of my cold or whatever it is these few weeks, anyway, I don't hardly see her anymore since Uncle Myron retired.                                         ...

                                                    Seems like there is so much going on today in the news.  I heard there was a doctor shot in Boston, that has me worried!  May God keep you safe , everyone in Amesbury and everyone, everywhere who has been shaken up by this.  Worried about you, I wanted to write to check in and give some encouragement in the midst of this sadness.  If you knew who this was, I am sorry and my prayers goes out to the family.  In all of this, smiling is hard to do!                                     ...

                                                     Hope you are having a good day SCHIZZ and things are going ok.  Pray that all the family is doing well throughout all this flu outbreak.  I think of all of you, mostly you...you know that.  Wanted to check in on ya during the day.  Give you a smile, if you need one!                                                     So are you ready to have the Patriots in the Superbowl against the Sea Hawks? My dad wanted...

                                             Sorry I didn't get a chance to write you yesterday, The kids and I went over to my folks to see how everyone was doing since I was feeling better, I still have the stuffiness though and you know me, I was running late like usual and didn't get a chance to get on the computer, felt bad about that. Everyone is doing fine, dad was back in his "Man Cave " watching the football games.  He is feeling better, mom is doing ok, seeing everything that happened last week.  She was sorta upset with "Arbors" in Delaware, because of the care that her friend Carol got before she died.  I will admit, I'm not a nursing home person, everyone that I have known never seem to last in those.  Thank goodness for the people who ta...

                                                          I get laughing at Daisy, she is like having a fur ball of pure energy around the house.  She loves to play with the cats and when she gets going, she races around the house like lighting.  I know my grandpa would of loved her, since he loved little dogs, my goodness, Daisy has dad wrapped around her little paw.  My daughter mentioned to me "Mom, I don't think she ever slows down!"                                            ...

                                                  Yesterday I wrote about the story my son had shared about his dad. Hope everyone enjoyed it, I wanted give some comfort for all your family and especially you Schizz, I know you have times when you share moments like that when you and your family get together and talk about those precious ones all of you loss, especially your mom and dad.  Sorry if it seemed a little impersonal sounding, didn't mean that to come off that way, I thought about how I wrote it.  I have been feeling down these few days since Doris died, my great aunt Wanda isn't doing good either.  Funny how it always comes in threes.  Pat wrote me and told me that her neighbor's grandson had rented my old house...

                                                       Hope you are having a good day Stephen, thinking about you, pray it is a good one. Been quiet today for the kids and I.  I have to go to pick up my daughter at her friend's house (Crystal) my other daughter.  Hope and pray your girl is doing well!  I got to pick my daughter up before that darn Ice comes in, we have a winter weather advisory starting at 1pm                                                   ...

                                      January sure is making up for the snow missed here in December..we have another storm system coming in on Monday.   Freezing rain and snow.  Be prepared Stephen, you know how these systems hit or miss New England.  I think the older I get, the less tolerant I am to all of it..I have said it once before, no wonder grandpa Havens went to Florida after Christmas, thing is Florida isn't much better than we are really.     Oh well, how about Hawaii ..now that sounds great.  I know when I was a kid, snow was fun, building forts and having snow ball fights, or sledding.  All that was nice.  Now , we won't go there, If I went sledding, I would be in a full body cast.          ...

                                        Hope you are keeping warm today, gosh it sure seems like a repeat of last year.  The sun is out but it is cold. My son made it in ok this morning, thought I'd tell ya, my daughter is doing fine and I'm feeling better today.  Had some fresh fruit and a garden salad for lunch, chicken noodle later.  Of course some tea was on the menu as well.  Hope and pray your afternoon is good and everyone is doing good as well.  Makes the day worth while.   Wanted to write you while it was daylight, I know I have been writing late.  Thought you might enjoy that picture of my son and "Scooter".                        ...

                                       My backache finally subsided, So I thought I'd write before it started again.  I am sorry I didn't write yesterday.  I really felt poorly.  I looked like a ghost even more pale than usual.  Today , my color did return.  I decided to make the kids and I some homemade chicken soup..well homemade from ingredients I got from the store anyway.  I tried out my new crock-pot I got with a Kohl's gift card that the school gave me, works fine.    Hope and pray you and your family has been keeping warm and healthy...SCHIZZ...  The kids got another day off from school because the temperatures were almost -30 with the windchill.   My son has been driving to school this week ,I've been biting my nails over him because of...

                                                   Hello my dear Stephen, I know its in the very early morning again and I have probably awakened you...if I haven't hope you are getting a good night's rest.  The kids got their snow day and it is very cold.  I spent all day sick, tired with a back ache..as strange as it sounds I have rested most of the day and I still tired and ready to go to bed.  Chill in the air always put an ache in my bones as it does for many.  Hate to tell you this but I put all kinds of layers on because I am cold...sorry..                              ...

                                                   The snow is starting to fall here, I guess we are in for 3-5 inches.  My son is hoping for a snow day, my daughter isn't.  Hope and pray all of you are staying safe and warm, looks like all of us or as you like (you all) I know you have teased me about me writing like that (SMILE) in for those sub-freezing temps, SO PLEASE be safe as you go into the office today and the next several days..you know I always worry about you.                                            ...

                                                The kids start back to school tomorrow from their break.  Come tomorrow night into Tuesday, we are under a Winter Storm Watch for snow and very cold temps. Anyway, tonight, I am thinking about you as a head off to bed.   Just wanted to tell you how much I love you and that I hope and pray you have a wonderful day at the office tomorrow.  I know its late and I hope its ok to write you.  Just have felt so down and just wish I could have a hug from you. The comfort, caring and concern from the love you give in them would be much appreciated from me right now, Stephen!                     ...

  Thinking About You, Love You So Much...Stay Warm, Stay Safe, Praying For You And Everyone..My hugs and kisses!                                                    by Sally J Wells-Hutchison-c/o 2014

                                                      First weekend in the new year is a gloomy one thus far, how is yours SCHIZZ?  Next week it is turning colder to the negative digits,so here we go again huh?   Hope and pray you are keeping yourself well and healthy, knowing you, I'm sure you are. I also pray that your family is doing well too!   Nothing really going on at the moment, just another Saturday.  My daughter wants to use her gift certificate she got from KOHLS so needless to say we will be going out later.  That is the most excitement for the day.                       ...

                                                       Hello Stephen , hope and pray your year is starting off well and your day is good.  I imagine the flu is making its nasty rounds in your area too.  The kids and I had a very nice visit with my folks got to see my sister and her son..Scott.  We watched the bowl games with my dad.  Ohio State was in the Sugar Bowl playing Alabama , State barely pulled it out.  My mom was getting too worked up every time Ohio State suffered Alabama's rough playing.  Good thing we all went home and she went to bed...dad was sure teasing her though.                   ...
