I'm Still Here
I promise that I am still here. My Grandmother passed away last Tuesday and I really haven’t been in the mood to write much less had the time to write. It was really good to see all of the family members events like this tend to bring together. I haven’t seen the people on my mom’s side of the family for more than five minutes at a time in a while. Even though I wasn’t very close to my Grandmother it was still hard to watch her leave this earth for what ever her final destination might be. It was very nice to hear reassurances from people who knew her when she was younger and spiritually active. I never knew that side of my Grandmother. I pray that she is resting in the Father’s arms free from the bondage that dominated her life while I knew her.
I also got to spend some time out at my other grandparent’s land. There is something about nature, guns, and friends to share it with that is relaxing. I can’t help but marvel at the Creator when I see His creation. West Texas might not have mountains and huge forests but it is beautiful in it’s own right. I need to get out there more often.
Another monumental event occurred this weekend. I mowed my yard for the first time this year. This means that I have officially acknowledged that it is mowing season. I have never really enjoyed mowing and I think I figured out why. I usually have a medium sized allergic reaction to all of the stuff that gets thrown up in the air as I am mowing. It takes me a few days to quit sneezing and itching. I think I will try wearing a mask to prevent this. Maybe it will help me enjoy mowing a little more.
My posting pace might slow down a bit here as I am trying to keep a better personal journal. It seems that the more I write there, the less inspiration I have to put here. I guess I am getting the thoughts out of my head there. I will try to transpose some of that to this place.
