Where does time go?

I can't believe it's been that long since I last posted here. Wow. And this week ahead is going to be very busy, so not likely I will post again. I just had a wonderful, but fast passing weekend. Friday night I went to Nona's cabin for the night. We had a very adventurous night with the furnace, fireplace, a petrified (not scared, petrified) animal in the flue (sp??) rain, cold, cards and lots of fun. I could only stay one night and we shopped and had lunch on Saturday before I came home. Today (Sunday) was busy - had to get my nails done!! Also had to go shopping in preparation for my Sister's Weekend coming up on Friday and went to Target to stock up on some necessities. I feel like I should get another free day!

This week is going to be horribly busy:

• Monday: Accompany my sister to her appointment with a surgeon. She was just diagnosed with breast cancer and I know it's best to have another set of ears there. Please say a prayer or two for her. After that I have a dental appointment (cleaning). Then off to my other sisters for a dinner with my aunt & uncle and cousin from Texas before she heads back. Then after that - hair appointment! After 40 it's patch-patch-patch!
• Tuesday: Normal day at work (whatever that is now?). Followed by water aerobics. Haven't been there for a week!
• Wednesday: Accompany my other sister at the hospital for her surgery. More prayers, please. Then that night is LOGOS at church. Oh boy -the group I have this year is VERY spirited. Let's leave it at that for now!
• Thursday: Work..followed by volunteering at the shelter from 6-9:00 that night. When I get back I am going to have to try to pack
• Friday: After a breakfast/brunch/lunch with my sister Sandy (who won't be able to come with us this year - breaks my heart)...we're off for SW 2009. We'll return on Monday! I'm hoping the weather cooperates and we have some beautiful leaves to look at. This has been a tough year for some of the sisters and hoping for a relaxing time.

Then the following week I am home on Tuesday, going to a hotel that night and bright and early Wednesday morning I fly out to Seattle! I'm there until Sunday night (late). I'm looking forward to meeting all Chelsea's friends and the kids she nanny's for. Seeing all the sights and places she's talked about will be fun, too.

So that's my week or week and a half in a nutshell. Going to be busy, a mix of emotions, too. Please say prayers for my sisters, prayers for my travels as well. Thanks!
