"Choose the path, you choose the destination..."

New Favorite Quote...

'Choose the path, you choose the destination.' From "A Christmas Sweater" by Glenn Beck.


Countless times each day I make what I feel are small, meaningless decisions where I choose one path but still feel I'm going to my intended destination - in a different direction. This quote opened my eyes to that fact. Wow! That's like a revelation. Does this sound familiar to anyone else?



If only...
If only a blog could solve problems or make hurt go away. I'd arrange the words so carefully and right a wrong today.

Confidential to Dawn Marie... I love you, friend. Wish I could send a hug across the miles.

Friday Lunch Date...
This Friday I will have lunch with a friend. With such busy, hectic lives, this will be a special treat.

Concern for Dad...
I understand my dad has been having health problems the last few months. He lives in Florida and, let's just say he's not great at sharing information. I end up getting bits and pieces from him and my brothers. Right now he's waiting on a test through his local VA hospital. It's supposed to be state-of-the-art. Ideally we'll get an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment and he can finally feel well again.

Big Dawg!
About a year ago we went to our local Humane Society in search of a new family pet. If you were reading back then you may remember that we ended up with two adorable puppies that day. Izzie and Bailey. I chose Izzie and, Christopher, tearfully, just couldn't pass up the teeny-tiny puppy with the sad eyes. Well, over time we ended up giving Bailey to our daughter. After our grandson was born Bailey started staying with Rob's mom, Barbara. That worked out well so bailey now lives with Barbara. Well, Barbara is on vacation for two weeks and Bailey is back here at Elisa's. Bailey was also still growing. she has grown so much that she's taller than the kitchen garbage can when on all- fours. I just can't believe how big that teeny-tiny puppy has grown. Izzie, well, she looks a little like a bear. Not as tall as Bailey, but plenty stocky and very solid. Oh, and yes, Bailey still knows how to use those big, sad eyes of hers.
