How the other half does Sundays...

It's weird enough to miss a Sunday service when I am travelling but to be at home, on a Sunday when I know that church is going on is bizaare. And it is Palm Sunday to boot. Good thing I am a Religous Scientist and don't have to be in church to know today's perfection.

Spirit called me awake today at 4.am. I knew I was to get up and do "work." I began journalling at 4:09 a.m. and as I dated my page, I realized today's date is 4/09. One of those cool mystical moments when you know something greater is at work. Sam sat with me as I wrote. I put sweats on over my PJ's to stay warm while we took our neighborhood walk --the long one so Sam could see Dan and get his biscuits. I went to get a newspaper, a muffin and a latte. Splurge-o-rama. Then I decadently and indulgently crawled back into bed to have breakfast and read the paper while classical music played in the background.

Then I decided to blog about it all to you!

My voice is back ever-so-slightly today. I sound faint but that is an improvement over the past week, so I am glad and shall remain silent today to ensure the healing. And with the onset of Spring, I can listen to the tweety birds instead of me.
I feel confident that by tomorrow I will be in full voice and can change my outgoint cell phone message that still tells people I am travelling in Canada.

Since it is still so early, I don't have a lot to share as yet. Other than my love and appreciation.
Enjoy this magnificent day.

Hey Sis! (Yes, you're still my Sis!)

Welcome to Blog land! I should start one myself, but I've always been terrible at keeping up a journal.(Almost as bad as keeping up with friends and family via email!)

Glad to hear you're getting better. Laringitus(sp?)isn't fun when you make your living speaking! (Great when when you dread speaking, like giving oral test in school when you're overly shy and have major stage fright!)

Love you loads!
