Road Trip Friday

Friday, I am going to Louisiana to pick up my sister, Candy and her cat. She is coming to stay with us about a week for a long over due visit. Her utilities are all off. She has been staying with her son and his wife, but I think she needs a break from them.



I am excited that we can catch up on all that sisterly stuff and she wants to help me with my books. I still have lots of books to unpack and some of them I want to give away. Right now I am reading "The Shack" by William Paul Young. I am about half way through and it is a sad but a very touching story. I would love to hear your thoughts on it. If you have read it please leave a comment about it. Most of my church friends are reading it right now.


I went with Hubs to move our travel trailer, you know the one he has been living in for the last year. So it is now in our back yard. Now I have to clean it up. Candy will sleep in it at night because she is a night owl and smokes a pipe. That way she can visit and when she needs her down time, she can have it. She is a hermit and so use to living by herself. So I understand and hope that she will be comfy. It is so hard to see her with nothing right now. The one thing I know is that she is a survivor and this won't last forever.


Have a good weekend...

I hope the two of you can have a great visit. Sounds like she needs a smile or two as well.

Nothing better than being with your sister. I lived away from them for so long and now they are close by and more in my life which is "Priceless" to me. Enjoy!

Hi Pam. I hope you and your sister have a really great time together. I'm happy for her that she has you in her life. Sounds like she really needs you and your love.

I've looked and looked for the award you said you made for me... and haven't found it yet. Can you give me a clue? lol.

I read "The Shack" last year and thoroughly loved it. I started reading it in the morning one day and couldn't put it down until I finished it later in the day.

There are many in the church who have had their feathers ruffled by it, but I think those are the ones who are terrible nearsighted.

How Mr Young puts God in a talkative relationalship manner really resonated with me.

I must read The shack as it is all over the bolgsphere!

Even when you're visiting someone you like, it's nice to get your own space.

You're a good host!
