My Excuse

It has been a while since I last posted. Aside from extra busyness, I am in the grips of some kind of virus, feeling achy and tired all over. You know the kind. So, my mind is even resisting work. Arranging rides for more than one person has frazzled this system as of late. And finding energy or enthusiasm is next to impossible.

Consequently no posts have been forthcoming. Sorry. Hopefully soon. I have 4 days with no major activity (aside from needing to accomplish a great deal of school with four children) -- perhaps that will be enough to get me over the hump and be done with this sickness. I'm praying so.

At any rate, naps may be on the agenda, although I tend to avoid them except for the 20 minute variety taken in the LazyBoy. The thought of crawling in bed in the middle of the day never appeals to me.

Fortunately the cupboards are full and we have no scheduled appointments. Hubby has our only vehicle until Thursday. He is treating our Spanish guests (the Gonzales family is with us for two weeks -- Paco, Doreen, and two daughters) to a whirlwind tour of the mideastern states. Last night was spent in Lancaster, Pa. Today they head to Virginia, then on to Washington DC by nightfall. A day touring there, NYC by Wed. midday and heading home on Thursday. Whew!

If you will excuse me now I will take my foggy brain and drooping limbs out to the kitchen and concentrate on getting some breakfast for a certain little guy who still needs his mama's help. Even on days like this one, I am glad he still needs me. Guess that tells you that I've watched more than a few of them grow up. I'm never in a hurry anymore.

Have a good one.

  1. there is SO MUCH to do/see in D.C.
    If they stroll to the Library of Congress, they can also see the Supreme Court front steps. A very cool place to pray....

    OH! I always hear about your Virginia excursions during or after the fact! Please let us know next time! You don't even have to "visit." Just eat and crash for FREE. You can't refuse such an offer, can you? It would bless us more than it would bless you! My husband works in DC, just up the hill from the Pentagon, and he commutes every day! If you get this message by 7pm, please pass it on to P.Rick. My hubby can meet up with them and you can spend the night at our home, free of charge. And on the way home they can drop by Historic Fredericksburg, check out some battlefields or local plantations. We only live 1.5hrs from the Williamsburg outlets, only that's in the other direction. :-( Sonny might even be able to get them a tour of the Pentagon, as he has full access as a Naval officer! Call us if you're interested. 540-538-5137

  3. Are They staying with my Dad?

    If they are, then that is very cool.

    I'm praying for you, and hope you get to feeling better Mrs. Sinclair!!!

    Sometimes your perspective makes my heart want to burst and I thank God for you.

    Love you~
