Life... isn't it great!

Yes, I know many people are out of work, are in poor health, are having a financial crisis or a personal one....and I have been in those places myself at one time or another. However, things change. If we are lucky, they change for the better..although we have to do our part to work for that change.

I have mentioned that my youngest son is getting married. My oldest son and his wife are having their first child. All good changes.

My Mom, at 97, is still living in her home, does her own housework and cooking, works in her yard and this morning went to church. She keeps a network of phone friends. Her memory isn't as good as it used to be and she doesn't understand the world as it is today. Computers are a mystery and she resents it when she hears a TV announcer say "For more information, go to our Website." I must admit that I think "if you would just leave out a commercial or two, you could give us the information now."

And this coming weekend, we are meeting some long time friends for our annual gathering in Austin. We will have good conversation, good laughs and good food. I can hardly wait!
