It's been awhile since I've added anything to my blogs. Our family has been in crisis mode for a long time. Problems with my two boys ..... and now we're in the middle of organizing and packing, getting ready to move, that is, when we find a place.

Weather is warming up, cactus garden is blooming, flower garden is looking good, I'm recovered from a terrible infection (coughing, headaches, stuffed up, high fevers ....). Back to working both graveyard and days .... just starting to get used to flip-flopping work hours.

Between working and packing, not much time for any leisure activities. Peter Whitebird was at Celebrate Recovery several weeks ago. Brother Pete is a blessing! His music and comedy brings joy and tears ...... Last week, another good testimony at Celebrate Recovery.

Today I had to attend CPR training at the Red Cross, employer requirements. The techniques has been revised a bit. They no longer recommend taking the victim's pulse, but instruct us to go into CPR immediately.

I've been reading through Proverbs each month as pastor Joe suggested. I always feel so much better when I read God's word!! I've also been reading through the Daily Reflections. Still reading Jesus Freaks, Volume Two, by DC Talk. The stories are encouraging. Still reading the Pilgrim's Progress.

Oh yes, major overhall to my laptop. Had to erase the hard drive. Lost all of my e-mail!!! Not cool .... Thanks to Carbon Copy Cloner, which deleted my e-mail completely!!! At least I had three partial backup folders, which I'm still working on restoring. Have to go through over 100,000 e-mail messages, reorganize, delete duplicates, and create new rules all over again.

Well, that's enough rambling for now. Time to rest. Another big day tomorrow ..... Thank you Lord for this day, another day I can see the beauty of your creation, hear the voice of my children, and chat with friends, and listen to good Christian music, and enjoy good food.
