Back to Life
After an especially long and exhausting drive or flight, a grueling week at work, or a mind-numbing exam period — what’s the one thing you do to feel human again?
******************
Just had a very busy long weekend. I wouldn’t call it grueling, just very busy and mostly in a positive way. We had the grandkids on Friday and Saturday, and that was just fun. We don’t do this terribly often, and I’m always reminded why God made it so the young women are the moms of little kids. I had four of my own, and I don’t remember being that tired after just two days. They’re extremely well-behaved, not a problem in any way. They’re just busy 🙂
Sunday we were privileged to hear David Gibbs of the Christian Legal Association speak in the morning church service. Wonderful sermon, clearly spoken.
Yesterday, Monday, Terry and I drove out to Gettysburg. About ten years ago, several other women and I formed a very tight bond over the internet. I’d met two of them face to face, but never had met Judy. We’re spread all across the country, and it’s not easy to get together. We met Judy and her husband in Gettysburg, and had a long lunch while we enjoyed seeing each other face-to-face for the first time. Perfect weather, good company, good food, good times.
But it’s a 2 1/2 drive there, another 2 1/2 hours back, and I was very tired. A good tired, but still. I’m not a kid any more.
For me, the one thing that sets me back to rights is my own bed, my own pillow, and a good book to fall asleep to. Luxury. 
I don’t ask for much 🙂
