I know...

I know I have been lax about writing recently. The 1st couple of weeks of school were not easy . I don't say this as an excuse, just a fact.

Today I got to meet up with an old friend that I haven't seen in close to 9 years. God is awesome. We talked and talked, it felt like we had never been apart. It was so wonderful to be able to speak my mind and heart with worrying about judgment or condemnation. I hadn't realized how much I had missed her. We talked about her life and some things she is dealing with, and how God is doing incredible things in the background even if we can't always see it.  We talked about change, family and of course Faith.  We both have struggles that are similar but very different. I gave her some counsel, learned, on my end, the hard way. I wouldn't trade the learning process,but if I can help her avoid some of the painful steps along the way....

God is good, and I am grateful for his Grace.

On the other hand, change is coming and that is difficult.

Hmph

There's a germ in the air, there a cough and a sneeze, a nose being blowing(breath) and not by the trees. What a virus, it a "great one" what a virus again! what a virus its a long one , I'm sleepy again.

Sung to  the tune of "There's a song in the air". mostly!

Being sick on break is no fun, but on the plus side I am not missing any classes this way. I am going to be cleaning as soon as I get healthy, everything has to be disinfected.

Being cooped up in the house is just no fun, I don't even have any good books to read, I finished all my new ones. Mom is also down for the count which makes it even more fun, because" when moma aint happy aint nobody happy". She  is doing better, then get exhausted. Dad is slowly recovering but he is also exhausted. He did manage to do church today but then he needed a Methodist mid day meditation (aka a NAP).  Dinner was fast and easy.

I am getting rest, which I was needing. I am also getting ideas for some crafts to finish. My friend K is in for a surprise if I can get this technique down for her journal. I hope it works. :)

I am so ready for school to start!!
