This is Me...

You never realize until you've broken a finger

how much you use your

hand.

I use my hand a lot.

The Valley of Vision

I was inspired by this prayer.  Oh to have this surrender to God in the valleys of my life.  I hope you will take a moment to read this...  it is beautiful.

"Lord,

High and Holy,

Meek and Lowly,

Thou hast brought me to the

Valley of Vision,

Where I live in the Depths

But see Thee in the

Heights;

Hemmed in by

Mountains of Sin

I behold Thy glory.

A Tale of Anygirl

In the state of Indiana, up to the north a bit, there is a small town.

In that small town there is a little church.

Inside that church is a white-washed room sporting three couches and a pool table.

Sitting on the couch, or sometimes watching the game of pool, there was once a girl.

Yes, I'm still among the living...

Hi everyone who may have noticed how little I have been blogging recently...

Between having a broken finger, travelling to Utah for a week, needing to rest and recuperate, and just being busy living and breathing... I have had to cut back a lot on emailing and blogging.  And yes, the broken finger is more the cause for that than anything else.  ;-)  And yes, I DID end up having surgery to fix it.  I get the pin removed on the 29th (four weeks after it was put into my poor, tramatized finger) and will then upgrade to a different kind of splint.

So...

When you mix trampolines, water, and "Blind Man"...

It was SO much fun.  Jessica, Natalie, Josh, Andrew, and I were jumping on our trampoline on Tuesday with the hose hooked up to one of the netting poles.  We were soaked and happy.  Then we decided to play "Blind Man"... you know, the game whicj is just like tag only the person who is "it" shuts their eyes and relies completely on sound???

Yeah, that game.

I still love it... but I have a bone to pick with whoever invented that game.

Literally.  A bone.  Namely, my left ring finger.  You know, the extra special finger where purity rings, engagement rings, and wedding bands go???

Don't panic.  I still have my finger.
