You who read this blog know that I have a marvelous call to a wonderful, healthy church.
To be sure, there are days that are too full, crises that would threaten to break a heart,all the same nagging, frustrating disappointments that anybody with a hope or a dream faces.
All in all, though,life is good. I have a treasure of a family I feel like I waited forever to find, I am being absolutely steadfast in my commitment to healthy eating and exercise, and to reference a thread of late among cabin-fever Revgals, my dog can fart with the best of 'em, but he's lovable and sweet (have you ever met a golden retriever you didn't like?).
We had a great Sunday-- I'll tell you about the amazing event we had tonight that served so many great purposes that I thought I was going to fall over from grinning at the fun and meaning of it all--and tomorrow's day off will be fine, I'm sure.
But here's the thing: We received such craptastic news on Friday, but it's unbloggable, at least for the moment. I have a heavy heart, despite all that is of good report. So, for the time being, I'll juggle the feeling that life will never be the same with Philippians 4:8.
And so it goes...

I'm sorry to hear that there is trouble of some kind. Saying a prayer.
Oh...that sounds like too much horridness. Praying after the event here. And Libby, my golden, sends love and wags and licks too.
