Divine Order


Like the ebb and flow of the tides, my life is balanced and in order. Though at times storms may arise and waves may crash against my shore.

Saturday and the family is all home. Carl and Danielle and Bradley arrived last night and we are up and ready for breakfast. After some of Ross' eggs and bacon and other goodies we stayed around the breakfast table and had a great Jacobson discussion. Brings back many fond memories of other family gatherings minus the melon. We were enjoying each others company and great conversations. Keith even managed to get a point in once in awhile. This was mostly about the school system since we have 2 experts at the table and what we can do as citizens and our responsibilities. Of course it was political too. Can't have one of these without politics getting involved. But no one stormed out or left the room crying. That is a good thing.

Mail arrived with several cards. Ross did managed to squeak one from the pile that was his for his upcoming birthday. Ross' mom sent me the scripture from the daily word that was so perfect for today. I received a few others that were just as endearing. I believe I spoken about cards already in here so you know how I feel about them. Thank you all.

We planned an early birthday dinner for Ross since I will be a little detained next week. Amy will be here and an old dear friend to help us celebrate this auspicious occasion. So Keith got busy making the spaghetti sauce, I ran to the grocery store and Danielle went and had her hair cut at Amy's salon. Her school picture are this week and you have to look great for those photos. They hang around a long time. Even Tucker and Sport played nicely with Bradley. Business as usual. With the help from everyone we had a great evening. Dinner was terrific. Ross managed to blow out his candles with little effort. It was good to catch up with Gene's life and all of his "treasure finds" stories. Good times.

Danielle is involved in this years committee for planning and organizing the walk to cure cancer up in St Augustine. It is going to be held in April for 18 hours. So we are signed up as a team. I believe our official name for our team is the Walloping Wahines. Since I have anal cancer and the theme is tropical we thought we would have some fun with this. Look for more news about this as the date gets closer.

The day was Divine Order. Everything was wonderful. "My life is balanced and in order, and all is well."

The good person out of the good treasure of the heart produces good - Luke 6:45
