Where have I been?

Oh my goodness! I have neglected you far too long. So many things have been going on in my life that I just pushe dyou right off the plate completely!

Let's see, I've pieced together some missing parts to my past that have helped me distinguish who I am. I have begun to develop a bridge of communication with my mother that I have always so desparately wanted to have. I have helped host a Grandparents' Tea for a group of 3 year olds. I've decorated 3 doors for Homecoming & caught a snake in the school bookstore!

In other news, we've mourned as a nation together another anniversary of the September 11th, attack. Sarah Palin has made history as the first woman on a national Republican ticket. Barack Obama has made history as the first African-American to win the Democratic National Convention's nomination for President. The national & world economy took a nosedive. Russia attacked Georgia unprovokedly & the world responded with sanctions and calls for immediate & unconditional withdrawal. My grandfather is back in the hospital again for pneumonia but is doing very well.

Wow. Life happens all the time, doesn't it? I'm so glad I'm here to see it all unfolding. Aren't you? Let's all bow our heads tonight in the midst of social unrest, political ambiguity & economic uncertainty & just thank God for the blessings we have.

"He is the same yesterday, today & forever." ~ Amen, and goodnight.
