OK - so I haven't blogged in quite a while. I have just not been inspired. I think that NOW, I am. It is December the 16th - actually, I just looked at the clock and it is the 17th at 12:01.
Life is changing and I'm not sure about it. Mickey is working again and that is good. He traveled last week for the first time since re-employment. I turned 50. Just thought I would sneak that in. I went to Muldrow, Oklahoma to sit with my sister-in-law for a few days as she began recovery from a broken hip. Now we are both home - me and Mickey, that is. Today was Matt and Teela's wedding. It was beautiful and the reception was fun - lots of dancing! ALSO, a lot of work! I am tired - but not sleepy. Does anyone hear me? I think I'm too exhausted to sleep. Jackie went to India yesterday and didn't quite make it there. She got stuck in Bangkok. That was pretty tense. Now she is in a hotel where she will stay for another day and a half. At least, Lacey said she is laughing about it now. Her trip over there is turning into a 5 day adventure. Oh, well, at least she will have a good story to tell. My house is a wreck!! We have been coming and going for about 2 weeks and just dropping things where ever they land when we come in the door. Kelly, Aaron and Asher are coming for pre-Christmas this year. They will be here on the 20th and leave on Christmas Eve-Eve. Guess it will just be me and Mickey and Mom and Dad for Christmas this year. I'm ok with it, I think. My hip is a little out of whack - it happens when you get old. I found my wedding dress at the bottom of a barrel at Mom's house - yellow as a pumpkin and all wrinkled. I just couldn't throw it away. Now...what am I going to do with this crumpled up, discolored mess that I am calling a wedding dress? All in all, God is good. He is my Rock and my Salvation. I am going through Psalms and underlining all of the verses that point to the nations and God's glory in bringing them out of darkness into His light. That really is what it is all about - not me. So, with that, I think I can sleep now - and I'm out of here.
