Gaining Ground
I’m still playing catch-up from the weekend misfortunes, but at least I’m playing. I definitely had an attitude challenge going and thankfully, have moved through it. My house is almost normal, though my ears are tuned to the on/off cycles of the furnace and I”m less than completely unpacked. But my truck is running and…

I Won’t Do It …..
No, I won’t, I will not title this nor will I think in terms of how many hours are left before I get on a plane and head for home. I just am not ready to think about my time here with Meghan coming to an an end. So I will focus on the…

Just Catching Up
This is being posted without links or more than a cursory spell-check so please bear with me if you come across errors. It’s hard for me to do things this way, but it’s either post or be done for the day and it’s only 10:30 a.m. so I’m going to close my eyes and just…

Countdown 57 hours – First Day of Winter
Okay not even the low number of hours till I’m hugging my Meghan can begin this post. The feature here is, get this, minus 6° (6 below zero) air temp with a WIND CHILL of minus 28 degrees. That’s a wind chill factor of 28 DEGREES BELOW ZERO right now, as I’m writing. Didn’t…

Countdown 80 Hours – a New Day
One of my favorite Scriptures was given to me years ago by an adult student. She often referred to Lamentations 3:22-23 where we’re told that the Lord’s mercies are new every morning! There’s a thought with which to begin every day! A whole new day and one less until I’m hugging my daughter and being…

Countdown 4 days or about 96 hours!
So I started this on Friday and as so often occurs, time got away from me and this is now out-of-date. Let’s see what can be salvaged. I was excited about it being 4 days or 96 hours, and that is now reduced to three-and-a-half days and 84 hours – the inevitable passage of time. …

Countdown 6 days!
Actually I got an e-mail from my Meghan – the South Carolina daughter with whom I’m spending my holiday – this morning and she had the countdown in HOURS – hours, not days. How thrilling is that? She had it at 152 hours and just happened to mention that it’s very warm there today, said…

Countdown 8 Days
One week and one day – I can hardly wait. What does that mean anyway? Of course I can wait. How would I NOT wait? I will do what countless women have done through the ages – clean something! In fact, I have closets, cupboards, drawers, all of which will be at least touched…

Countdown 9 Days, part two
So the last time we were together, the three of us, was eight months ago – EIGHT MONTHS! There was a time that I didn’t go eight HOURS without hugging them and now it’s eight months and will be more since we shared a group – all three of us – hug. I do not…

COUNTDOWN 9 Days part one
Countdown to …? I’m counting down till I get on a plane and fly to a warmer climate for Christmas and nine days of holiday. That would be exciting any time, but most special now because I’m spending my holiday with one of my daughters. It’s a gift from the girls together, very precious to…
