I am in complete disbelief....or denial....that TODAY is the first day of December!!!! I think to myself, how did this happen. My body clock is still somewhere in August basking in the summer sunshine. I kinda feel like I missed summer. While we had some serious fun and enjoyed every second, I still long for more....camping with the grand babies (who are no longer anywhere close to babies! Kamryn is 10 and Kolton is 11....already!) camping with grandpa, trips to the drive-in for ice cream, planning, and writing.....
Yet time marches on even when I am not ready to move on! Yup! my hair is growing and now I have to use the hair brush.....
So, the adventure continues....tho not so drastic as the last unplanned adventure. But related. Three weeks or so ago, I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. So I am learning to count carbs, exercise more, and make better choices. So far so good. I am lucky! And I believe that I have been given a second chance at life and I better make the most of it....
I am grateful that it was diagnosed early, and if I get my bad habits under control, perhaps it will not be sooooooo bad.....
Life in the parish is awesome....We have good days and bad days, but more good than bad. And we have awesome partners in ministry. The picture below is of this year's Confirmation Class...We had 6 in our class from three of the four congregations! Check out the link to an article about our amazing parish!
