Gratitude and other stuff....
August 24: Today's gratitude is that both Brie and I got a good night's sleep, unlike the night before last, and can have a good day together.

***Lots going on in CUUPS-Continental, because it is our 20th anniversary this year. So GA will be huge. And GA is in Portland, Oregon.

My choir buddy, Hank Carlson, died this morning, nearly a month to the day from the day of his tragic auto accident. I have been waiting for, and dreading, this day. Like so many other of the South Valley family, I felt it was coming. And now it has come. Hank is gone from earth.
I remember how I felt when our dear Pete died. I remember my own ( Read more... )
