I was sitting on the camper sofa yesterday reading and looked up to this. I had used it to pin up the July schedule for campground activities. The schedule was long gone but I neglected to remove the clothespin.
I needed that.
I'm feeling better today, although I only slept a few hours. After tossing and turning for hours, at 3:00 am I was wakened by something outside in the garbage. I'd forgotten to take it to the dumpster. The noise got louder as my tin can with bird seed was drug by my mysterious visitor into the woods. I quietly climbed out of bed and crept to the back bedroom. In the moonlight or camper lights, I could see the tin reflecting but couldn't see what wrestled it. Getting more nervous by the minute that my intruder was the bear who had visited this spring, I snuck back to bed and covered my head. Once I drifted off to sleep, I dreamed of a bear stuck in my window and my inability to find escape.
Morning revealed garbage strewn all over the yard and my can too far in the woods to retrieve. Dandy.
Nevertheless, its a beautiful summer day. I am sitting on the deck, all packed and ready to head to my sister-in-law's home for the night or a few days. Not quite sure. It will depend on how Lily does when we take her to her first vacation Bible school tonight.
Pondering the fall, praying over my family, petitioning for my needs. This is Monday.

I can just see you pulling your blanket over your head while the bear is right outside your door....That's scary to think he was so close.....
I am glad you are feeling better. I do hope Lily does well at Bible School and that you get to visit your sister in law....
You know I wish I could express myself the way you do...I read your posts and think I want to write like that but I guess my main expression of self comes through other sources...
Hugs...
