Where did the summer go....?

  Well, I see its been three months since I last wrote in here.   Looking back, to see where the summer has taken me.    Spent most the summer working on the fence, the garage, and learning patience with people, when things seem to take way too much time.

I think during the summer, I kind of focused on trying to get these things done, and I let everything else lapse.  Like keeping up communication with my dearest friends, and not working on other things that are just as important...  like the books I've started to write, songs I hope to publish someday too.

Was thinking of how old I am going to be my next birthday, which I don't want to broadcast, but feeling like maybe it's just too late to finish or even start some of those dreams in my heart.   Maybe even feeling a little sad about that.  This morning the LORD reminded me, its not too late, its never too late, so I actually found myself getting one of the books out I'm writing, and thinking ok, going to work on it again!  That's a start.  At least I've gotten it out.



 Missing my mother tremendously.  Tried to have a garden this summer.  The first one without her.  It did my soul good to dig, plant, water and see everything growing. Since I lost her last fall, that was a tumultous time for me, just losing her.  Now that things have settled a little bit, I realize she really is gone.  Feeling pretty lonely....





 And now need to focus on what's ahead, and what the LORD has for me now.  One of my books is "Treasures in the Garden".  That's what I got out again today to work on.....  



So here I go......
