"Today I was robbed... Apr 19, 2008 11:28 am

...and I thank God. First, I thank him that the thief took my wallet and not my life. Secondly, I thank God that even though the thief took all I had, I didn't have much to take. Thirdly, I thank God that I was the one robbed and not doing the robbing."

-from Matthew Henry's diary.

My two weeks of travel has ended. Thankfully I'm home, I think, until I leave for Vegas May 3. It was so good to be home I fried chicken, mashed potatoes, cooked corn and green beans, and baked rolls...mmm, mmm, good.

Now I need to go kick my feet up...has anyone missed me?

Lessons from missed planes and Starbucks spilled on laptops... Apr 17, 2008 7:56 pm

I missed my flight out of Nashville Tuesday. I can blame it on the construction delays on I-24, but the reality is I simply didn't leave early enough. It was my fault.

While waiting four hours for the next flight I went to Starbucks to get comfort in a sugary coffee drink...and a blondie. First thing I did when I sat down...spill that coffee all over my laptop. I could blame Starbucks for giving me an unstable cup and a wobbly table, but the reality is I was careless. It was my fault.

When the flight arrived I was supposed to be on, they announced it had a hydraulic leak and there would be a delay. I was thinking, don't rush it take your time. I know what goes up must come down, but I really prefer coming down safely. They ended up having to find a different jet.

I eventually made it to my hotel...I attended meetings from 7:00 AM until 6:30 PM with four hours of sleep. Did I say boring meetings? Did I mention monotone speakers? The warm room? I'm saying I struggled to stay awake.

I spent my spare time after the meeting trying to repair my laptop - to no avail. After cleaning it with quick drying electric contact cleaner it seamed to work fine...with the exception of the "e" and "r" keys. Have you ever realized how often you use those two letters. I couldn't even log on to check my email.

Then if began giving me the dreaded blue screen with white flashing letters "Fatal Error" - "Microsoft is shutting your computer down. If this problem continues, please report it to..." Report what? That I spilled coffee on it?

Well I went out tonight and bought a new laptop. If I can have my Starbuck laptop fixed, I'm going to give it to my youngest son. If not...

Anyhow, in retrospect I'm laughing. Everything turned out ok in the end. I got a new laptop. Kinda reminds me of homegoing. One of these days, after all the mistakes I've made in my life, Jesus will welcome me home and give me the rewards for my labors here. It will be worth if after all...just to see Jesus and fall at His feet. And the reward won't be a laptop.

"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory" 2 Corinthians 4:17

...after a four hour kayak trip yesterday, I am sunburned!!! I never had a sunburning problem until I began taking medication for hypertension...so, I've never had the need to wear sunscreen.

I'm getting better at remembering now though...but yesterday, I managed to get sunscreen on my face...but in the rush of getting myself and seven kids out the door I forgot my legs and arms...

ouch...

...vacation that is. After attending a wedding in NW Indiana Saturday, we arrived in Florida Sunday. It has been so good. We are leaving Saturday, so we have two full days left. Kayaking and more beach time Thursday, airboating on gator lake Friday. It will be over too soon!

Is there any rich ladies out there who would like to marry me so we can be on a continuous vacation together? I'm a lot of fun and a good cook too!
