Waking Up Refreshed
Fortunately, God gave me a good morning. I was able to wake up early and have a good 30 minute walk. Yesterday Mom and I got caught in a rain shower. Since it was a good day we were able to go back to Grandma’s house and look through some more pictures. There are a…

Summer School & Accidents
Yesterday my Mom came home from Church with tears. She said it hit her that they could have lost me this week. Not exactly comforting thoughts as my head was hurting at that moment. Her moment of poignancy was not lost on me though. Back in 2005 Lilly’s car I think was gone after that…

Today’s Thoughts
Last night I didn’t get to bed before midnight like I wanted to. Unfortunately there was a little matter involving a girl and a charger at 11 pm. I even texted her saying I was not going to stay up til midnight for a charger and it still happened. When my alarms went off both…

Road-Trip With a Deja Vu Experience This Morning
Once Lilly and I got in the car heading for Sullivan County it didn’t take long to get to our destination. So she was able to get her birth certificate for her upcoming travels. She was happy to get another step of the process done. However, for me it was like being in my backyard.…
