Did You Forget About Me??

I can't believe I haven't written a post since last Thursday! In spite of that, it was a good week, Peeps.

Here's something very, very different .... Friday was the 18th ..... which means it was 21 months ago that Jim died ..... and I didn't think about the 18th being "the 18th" one-single-moment.

Not. One.

Not until the next day when someone asked me about it.

I think that says so many things .... but I'll leave that for a later post. Just thought it was worth mentioning.

That was the day I drove to Temple, Tx with my friend V for a beautiful wedding on the 19th. We had a good time. We went out for dinner, got very, very lost after we had to drive to the next county for some Bailey's (a girl has to have some alcohol!) and then made it back to the hotel to meet up with Son #1 and finally the Daughters 2 and 3. The girls had been to the rehearsal and the dinner, so they got away late.

D #3 and S#1 stayed in my room with me.

The next morning S#1 went with V and me to go antique shopping in the nearby town of Salado. We had a great time.

We came back in time to get ready for the 4:00 wedding, A & M drove in and met us at the hotel and then we all went to the church.

Thankfully, I was prepared for this wedding and for the walk down the aisle of the bride and her father. Does that mean it didn't hurt? Nope, not at all. It still hurt and I was shaking like a leaf during most of the service, but I made it through. I stood tall through the wave. And I was glad to be there.

Daughter #2 sang through most of the wedding and Daughter #3 sang the last song with her. That is the song I'll try to post.

We went to the reception for a while and then A, M & I drove back home. I slept most of the way. I'm not sure what time we got home, but I stayed up until around 1:00 or so.

The boys and I went to church this morning and then had a quiet afternoon at home. I went to Bible study and was home around 7:15 or so. I'm pooped. I have a tennis match tomorrow (just for fun) and then hope to spend more time at home relaxing this week than I have in a while.

Thanks for answering the movie question .... I also have way too many to choose just one.

It's been great to read your answers.

I'm still feeling a bit "flat", but not as much as before. Overall I've been feeling much better, so yay for meds, Peeps. And for the ability to tweak them.

I now have another prayer request for you. My little brother is winging his way towards Iraq at this very moment. Please pray for his safety (he'll be there for 4 months) and for peace and strength for my sister-in-law K, and my two beautiful nieces. I was able to talk to him a couple of times yesterday .... before he got out of the country.

Thank you for praying, Peeps. I know that you have all of them covered.

P.S. I tried ALL NIGHT LONG to post the video of the girls singing but as you can see, no video. I will try again today.

Thus, this "Sunday Post" isn't being posted until Monday.

In spite of my best efforts. Oh well.
