I want to hurry through my blog this morning so I can go walk. The temperatures are in the sixties and I want to be out there! We still have a strong wind but it feels good.

Terry has one more week of vacation. He has several projects he has attacked and I am hoping they get finished. Today we are helping move my dad to a new facility and praying every step of the way that the care will be good here.

I will write more tomorrow... the day is escaping and The sun is up and I want to walk before we have to go pack Dad up.

Yesterday we ate a late lunch wtih Justin at Abocca's in Richardson. I had to get art supplies at Asel Art. Catcing up we covered every subject of our loved ones.

When Terry and I left I started humming my latest song by the Beatles "there are places I remember.... all my life..." and my brain sings the song through over and over. The changes right now are so dramatic. Night and Day....black and white with very little bleed over to gray. Reminds me of how children grow so fast. 18 years in child's life show DRAMATIC changes in body, emotions and mind. Then going from age 20 and up... we live our next 65 years trying to stay young. We fight and complain as our bodies continue to change and we want to be twenty again. Learning to SEE what is there around us that we have been ignoring is so important. There is beauty in every stage of our life. We must learn to accept and embrace what we have today.

Find yourself today. Love yourself today. Love what God created and celebrate your gifts!


Grace,
Laurie

The Thought:  Our youngest daughter is still very ill.   I am pumping her full of fruit and juices, mucinex and tylenol etc but it is not a positive thing right now. Does not look like we will make my older daughter's house for Thanksgiving.  I am sad because there will be new family to be attending along with everyone that has NOT been together since the dea
