Another week.................

I am surviving with out my new ride, now named Sophie. I hate the rental car. It wiggles and jiggles much like Jell-O. They say it will be another week until I get her back. I am hoping by this Friday.

My week was unexpectedly busy. With summer school and appointments, I was on my toes.
Monday, I wanted to return Mom's car to her and so I headed to Knox. to meet Anne after her doctor's appt. Well, one thing led to another and Kathy ended up getting me after she got off work and took me home. It was God's way of saying that I needed to spend that time with Kathy. Kathy and I ended up REALLY talking Monday nite. Apparently I said some things that struck a cord with her and allowed her to let go of some issues. She seems to think I helped, but she said some things to me the next day that hit home with me and has allowed me to get even stronger. Hey Kathy..... those ancient words of wisdom swing both ways..... Thank you.

Tuesday evening, I was chillin' here at home when Anne called to say that they had an emergency and Arissa needed her Aunt Carol to meet them at Children's Hospital. Arissa had a slight mishap with her bike and proceeded to "burn" a chunk out of her knee and elbow. She is healing nicely, having to go through the same recovery as a burn patient. Anne says she handles it the best she can. I am thankful she asked me to come to her and of course I immediately jumped in the crappy rental and woggedy down the road.

Tomorrow is Father's Day and a special day for me and my daddy...... yes, there are two more sisters, but this last year has shown me the kind of father I have. One full of compassion, a heart bigger than you can imagine, and love for me I had never known until November. I now know my Daddy will go to the ends of the earth for us and do whatever he has to get the best for us girls, even if it eats him up inside. For that, I will forever be grateful........
