Read MoreCreator blessed me today!
today was such a blessing…i broke down after 5 days and went to see my doctor with a very sore throat and got antibiotics to heal my body…my soul was touched on the way out the door…this lady was holding the door for 2 others in front of me and i jokingly asked does that work for me, too? and she replied, i was holding it for you. we got outside and she began telling me her life story and how much i reminded her of her momma, who had passed in 2000 – the year i was blessed with my first grandchild, sarah nicole hannon!…we talked quite awhile, hugs, tears, memories…i don’t know her name and she doesn’t know mine, but our spirits touched and we could both feel the goodness…thank you Creator for this gift you gave us today. it made my spirit soar with happiness and i am humbled.

Must tell you about our Clearwater Fans of Fiction meetup group. A friend from work, Lil, started the group and we have grown and read some interesting books I would have never thought of to read. Have made some wonderful new friends and enjoy getting together once a month. I drive them crazy with my picture taking, but someone has to capture the moment for history sake! Just remember that next time you see the flash!

Got to play with Robin and Phoenix on Robin’s day off work. We went to the Smoky Mountain National Park and had a picnic and then back to town to the Elks Lodge #1925 and a cool music shop. Back to Robin’s home for feast that Jason had cooked. He’s such a fine chef and we got to meet his family here and all had great fun. It was so nice to be so welcome in their home. I do so love ya’ll madly! On my little airplane and headed back to Clearwater.
Read MoreDrove like crazy for many, many hours
Drove like crazy for many, many hours. Stopped in GA to see GG Liz, had been told by a friend that the doctors are really messing up and hurting her instead of healing her and poor thing had been through another hip operation today, so we found her in the hospital. She looked in so much pain, it made me and Robin cry, Phoenix cried as we were sad. Got to talk to the nurses and get info on the doctor. Had a short visit, as she couldn’t stay awake, but so very glad we came. I do so love my other Momma. On down the road, we got stopped by Highway Patrol in Florida, Georgia and Tennesse as Robin’s temp tag could not be seen thru her tinted back window, they were all nice and friendly, we had all the documentation to show them, the car had just come from the shop and was going home. We finally gave up and left the information packet out for the next stop! Late in the night, we finally made it to Jefferson City, Tennessee and so glad to be at Robin, Jason and Phoenix’s home. So very tired.
