On Dec 29, I went to the dr to find out why I had been having severe problems with dizziness and coordination to the point where it had become difficult to walk. It had started in November, for the most part. The Dr told me after examining me that I needed to go directly to the hospital. I had driven myself to the doctor, which I look back at now incredulously now. My dogs were in the car and I had planned to go to Petsmart to buy them food. But I drove myself to the local hospital, only a few blocks away. I drove clear around the city to get there. My brain was so impaired that it mapped out a very illogical route for me. Of course, I didn’t know that my brain was impaired… at the time.

My Dog
My dog is nice. Well, usually. He is big, and foreboding looking, with the added reputation of “chow” emblazened on his DNA, but he is nice. Most of the time. So as I meet people walking their dogs I call out “he is friendly!” to calm their fears as I watch their eyes dart to the left and right to plan an escape route with their pet. My announcement usually suffices and I receive a warm, friendly smile out of them as doggie greetings ensue.
Usually.
Yesterday my dog made me into a liar.

This is the little creek we stop and play in every day on doggie walk now that it is hot outside again.
Some Interesting Dates
I was recently handed a book called “I Have A Friend Who Is Jewish, Do You? I wasn’t sure how a book geared toward convincing Jewish people that Jesus was Messiah would be applicable to me, but I ended up finding some ‘fact gems’ in it that really impacted me. I believe these points stand well on their own. Our world is so full of chaos and uncertainty. We’re all looking for signs of what is to come. Is this the end of our country? Is this the end of history period? Is America going to fall? Will our economy turn around before we’re out on the streets in bread lines? Of course I don’t have the answers to those questions, (sorry), however, here are some interesting dates and points to consider, which, I believe, clearly illustrate who is in charge, and just how absolutely and factually in charge He is. Enjoy – and may He fill you with the faith you need to weather the storm!
Christmas in a New Land
I haven’t written in such a long time. Since the holidays are upon us, I thought I should at least put something in here.
It’s December, and here we are in Hendersonville, Tennessee. It’s cold. I keep wondering where the snow is. It seems to me that I’ve been in weather this cold before but I could swear that there was snow involved.
Daily Life Here
Mike called. Said his car had a boot on it. “MY car has a boot on it!?” “WHY does MY CAR have a boot on it?!” Well, he had parked in an area where they used the ‘honor system’ for people to pay their fee, he explained. “Don’t tell me…”
updated pics of new home
A few of you have asked for updated pics of our new house here in Hendersonville. I finally took a few minutes to get some taken. I’m still not finished of course. I have to paint the living room something other than that caramel color they had in there, and quite a few other things. … Read more
A quick video
Finally I had a minute to download the video of the long, long, long, long trip across the country! If only I had a little more time, I would edit it to include the sound track, which is nothing but birds singing all day long, but pretty funny background music to a long drive! We’ve … Read more
An Update From Tennessee
For those of you who I have not personally emailed, I apologize. The days have been packed with things to do, and my computer time is very limited. We left in nothing less than a blur. It all happened so quickly that it took quite a while for my emotions to get up to speed. … Read more
The Road To Nashville
I thought that I may as well write about this, in the event that anyone still reads this thing. 🙂 I wish I could provide you with some video footage or pictures, but in the million details of packing up an entire house, while packing for a trip, I ended up grabbing a few, but … Read more
Seasons
The sun is shining, like it does most every day in Vista. Blue, cloudless skies, the weather is a balmy 70 degrees. This is the kind of day that people in other states celebrate over. Here, it’s just a normal day. It’s difficult to grasp what’s ahead of us. To uproot, leave everything we have … Read more
