Can You Tell I've Been Lonely?

My sweetie has been in Philadelphia this week, leaving the girls and I to fend for ourselves. The usual joke we make is that we're going to eat cereal every night he's gone! Well, I actually made the girls some yummy meals and a batch of Allison Shoemaker's famous chocolate chip cookies!
I have missed him terribly this time. Maybe because it's spring and it feels like he should be here. He went to Philly on business, but he usually has a lot of fun too. He went to the Phillies game Wednesday night, and has tried the famous cheese steaks downtown. He was doing sightseeing today, and will be home late tonight.

I have been keeping myself very busy this week, organizing our filing cabinet (an all day job, believe it or not), changing our kitchen cupboards around, unplugging the ditch tube (too much rain!), and trying to make a dent in the laundry. However, I have been very lonely! I get that way sometimes. I'm kind of a loner, so it doesn't usually bother me. I am my own built-in buddy, mostly because you have to know how to be your own friend!

So, can you tell I've been lonely? I'm posting like a crazy person!! You probably won't hear from me at all next week, but I'll tell you why when I finally return.....

I'm so with you on the loneliness...so glad the cookies could come to the rescue.

Fabulous cookies, eh?? Sep just requested some today - maybe I should just send him over to your place instead of cook them tomorrow!

Words Matter. Choose them carefully.

A Character that Reveals

  When you love your enemies,  you reveal what kind of God  our God is.  I was thinking today about how stubborn we are as people sometimes....
