Family

I just read Korana's post about the playground. We live by an elementary school like she said in her blog and sometimes I admit I get frustrated by the noise of kids yelling and having a good time outside during their recess. What's up with that?? I guess I am getting old. They are just normal kids having fun. So, I am trying to look at it differently. I know that Denver, Willa, and Adalyn will continue to be happy to play there for some time yet and that makes me very happy. Ellianna, Ben, and Shawn Jr. enjoy it too. I just wish they could all come more.

I have chosen to house-sit for Wayne and Korana instead of going with them to Virginia Beach for a week vacation. Now you all must think I have lost my mind. But listen this will be so good. I can visit my Aunt Audrey, the individuals that I used to work with when I first started at the Arc of Monroe, and also visit Shawn, Lesley, Shawn Jr., Ben, and Ellie. And last but not least is I am going to make it a working vacation and I will be working on the book without pressure (from myself) to do housework etc. I might even talk my honey into staying a night or two. Sound romantic? Could be!! So, all said I think it was the right decision for me this time. Maybe there will be another time to go.

Scott and I are going storage picking this week. I really want to find some things we have stored and I am sure they are in the back of our storage unit. I wouldn't think of trying this alone. I am not that crazy.

Please pray for my friend, Kathy who broke her leg a few months ago, and has needed another surgery. I haven't heard how that went. She might not be up to contacting me yet. I'll update you all when I know more.

Until next time,
God Bless Y'all (I can see the smile Shawn)
