Getting to my blog has got to become more of a DAILY habit! It's not that there aren't things to write about. I let my 'tiredness' take over way too much--when writing is actually energizing most of the time!
It was a long week, not just for the nation but for me as well. A lot of time and emotional energy went into preparing two worship services and writing a sermon. It challenging and fun (?!) but time consuming. That said, I had a good time. It was gratifying to know that my message was appreciated by many members of the congregation. It makes it all worthwhile.
This morning, on my way to Costco, there were several birds "bathing" in a small puddle at an intersection. Talk about a grin! As soon as I turned the corner, the two that had flown away were right back in the water fluffing their wings. Isn't that just cool?
Wish I could say that life will slow down a bit now, but my husband's adult step-daughter arrived yesterday from Alaska as well. She's experiencing the end of a long-term relationship and needs a place to regroup. I feel for her--but this is going to make life really interesting for awhile. On the plus side? She's a smoker (bummer) but goes outside to smoke and plays with Pepper while she's in the backyard. Pepper LOVES having Mary here! So a new set of challenges
as life goes on!
