Staying In Touch

MJ, I don’t want to lose touch either! It’s been one heck of a year. As I think you know, this is my second year of grad school and I will go into internship and licensure next year. I lost both my parents this year and am in my last year of having kids at home. Big transitions! I will be flying to Florida in another week. Any chance of catching up this week, maybe Thursday? Meet at church services? At least let’s have a long phone call. Let me know what works for you. CU

I am so glad to hear from you! It does sound like you have had a hectic year. Sorry, meeting at church won’t work. I do go to church after an eighteen-month hiatus, but I have a lot of irons in the fire too. The house phone has been disconnected since the blitz of elections started, and we find we don’t miss it at all. I will be home through January, then Snowbirding in the desert. Email works well everywhere.
Surprise! My husband is attending Gambler’s Anonymous. He decided he’d rather be married than keep that mistress. We have a lot to talk about.
Do you still have your dream of having a small farm? Just leave me a parking space and I will come help feed the animals and do the work. I actually have the name of a goat farm near Sweet Home, where the owner said I could come and spend a day, to see if I really liked it. Maybe you would like to come too? Might satisfy the need to know…
You’ll be interested to know my daughter is travelling in South America, having all the travel genes in the family, I do believe! She walked 550 miles on the Camino del Santiago in Spain last year, and wrote a book about it, but it hasn’t sold yet. She’ll be home this winter to revise it again and catch up with the rest of her family.
The best of holidays to your and your family! “Participate joyfully in the sorrows of life.” That’s a great line from Joseph Campbell. MJS
