I can't believe I've already been home a week! It goes by so fast! I'm sure that it will be nice and chilly this trip to Ohio... better pack my heavy coat! I've been thinking about my friends from DaySpring a lot lately. I miss getting to talk to them every day. You work with someone for several years, you learn a lot about each other and I just miss talking to them or laughing and joking. We did a lot of laughing and joking! Once I'm back from this trip, I'm going to try to go visit them and do a little catching up.

I'm not really sure what to write about this time. I have so much that I want to say and get out of my head, but I just can't seem to put it all into words right now. Maybe it will come easier soon and you will be reading novels on here! I guess until then, I'm going to go ahead and close this post.

Before I leave this post, I would like to ask you to please pray for my Mamaw. She just isn't doing very well. Her health seems to decline more every day. She fell the other day, thank goodness she didn't break any bones! She has such a hard time getting around any more. It's very hard to watch her decline the way that she is. She's always been so strong and taken care of everyone else, and now we're taking care of her.

Traveling A lot

Sorry it's been a bit since I've posted. It's been pretty busy lately. I've been to Cleveland every other week since I've started this job and it looks like I will be doing the same until the first part of December. I actually enjoy getting to travel. I've met a lot of interesting people along this journey. Heidi from Boundless Flight called today and she has another prospective client for me to meet. She's going to set something up the next time I'm here in Cleveland, which will be the last week in October, and the class I'm going to teach the week of Nov. 17th is filling up fast!

I've decided to head back early on Friday Oct. 31st, tho because it will be Jasmin's first Halloween! I know she's not going to know what the heck is going on, but she'll have fun. She's just going to visit family so they can see her all dressed up in her little pink tutu and ballerina slippers! How cute is that? I'll have to post some pics of her.

I finally broke down and had to get a smart phone. I decided on a Blackberry (it was the cheapest, believe it or not!). I can finally answer the blasted thing now, but surfing the net or reading e-mails....that's gonna take me a while! It always annoyed me when the flight attendant would say to "put away all cell phones and two way pagers" and here were people still clicking away on their phones and digging them out as soon as the wheels touched the ground! Well... I am officially one of those annoying people! Oh, well... I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later. You spend several hours on a plane and once you land you just have to know right away what you missed in those few hours. Did we send someone to mars yet, what happened on the Presidential debates, Are Meredith and McDreamy still together or did she run away again (c'mon... seriously, get it together girl!)?

Well... I guess that's all for now. I'm going to go to bed, so I can head to work tomorrow, then to the airport to fly home.

Weather

I had to go buy a jacket today. Last time I came up here, I brought one and didn't need it and this time I didn't bring it and I need it! It's in the 50's which isn't bad, but the wind is terrible!! It's been cloudy and rainy, which is fine with me. I love the rain. I wish there was more thunder though. I like to hear the thunder.

I got some good news today. I stopped by the first company I worked for when I was up here in July (I've still been working for them on a part time basis from home) and they want to extend my contract until at least June 2009! And they want to at least double my work load... maybe more at times! Wooo Hooo! I'm excited! God is good... all the time! Isn't it awesome how He just works it all out? I don't need to worry, He's got it all mapped out and He's a much better mapper than I could ever be.

Sorry this has been a boring post. Maybe I'll have something more exciting by the end of the week.
