Sunday evening

One reason I changed the background of this blog, was the simple fact that I just LOVE the foggy-looking backdrop. Looks all cool and restful.  And since I first did it over here, I noticed that every time the page pulled up, a feeling of comfort washed over me.  So----wanted it on this site as well. And since chickens are always a good thing, well, you know.

Feeling a sense of quiet tonight. Got some things figured out in my head, and think this week will be a mini-sabbatical sort of one.  The only thing hanging fire is to take fourth son to the dental school for a crown on Wednesday.  Yep.  We sort of live down there.  I should have my own parking space by now, don't you think?  But, hey, the savings of going there are so impressive.  And since this son is paying for all of his own work with his hard-earned money, it's all good.  I asked him the other day if he resented having to foot the bill and he said it made him proud.  He even teased about a girl at his job whose parents paid for her car insurance and college education.  I told him my parents did that for me, and he just shook his head.  He said he preferred to take care of it himself.  Way to go, Joshua.

So, just a few more precious weeks before school starts here.  No plans.  Some mental rest is in store, I believe, and much playtime needed.  Can I hear an Amen?
