I am still here...

Well, it has been quite a busy past few weeks. I am glad to have the chance to run away from home (with only one child with me... Ron has the others), to do a few errands.
Ron has been a quite sick with a sinus infection or something, and started antibiotics today. Otherwise, it seems he is doing as well as can be expected with his chemo... perhaps even better than expected! We went to a support group meeting yesterday. It was interesting, and we had a great opportunity to witness.
Dad is doing much better, no permanent damage done from his heart attacks.
We are doing fine... My mind wonders alot, focusing is quite an issue, keep trying to figure life out, would do me good just to flop everything in Jesus' lap. I have actually had to picture Him holding me in order for me to fall asleep.
I know this is a boring post... sorry... haven't had any coffee for several hours... HA!
However, you might have felt like laughing if you were my neighbors yesterday watching me with a mop washing the outside of my trailor... it looks so much nicer though! Or, today watching me hurrying to finish up my lawn in a thunderstorm (okay, I actually was finished mowing and was almost done with weed-eating, and just had to clean up toys, etc. My children had been sent inside when the storm arrived and were worried about Mommy outside with the storm... I was worried myself when I knew I had to hurry and put the gasoline container away... I just kept thinking that it would not be good to be carrying a gas container and be near lightning.
It has been storming here lately. I was thinking how I actually sometimes I like storms, there's this since of security when you know all you have to do is run inside and shut the door, and you will be in a dry and much safer place. Like life... it can be storming (and, it is), but if I just run into the arms of Jesus, He will be my place.
