This is such a weird time. Social What?? Sheltering-in-Place? No TP left? Hand sanitizer a thing of the past? Everything is closed?

Guess what? Not all is lost.

Once upon a time, I was at work and had to pee.

It’s time for another progress report. Life has been BUSY lately. The crazy illness going around had us all knocked down for a couple weeks, and we’re finally digging our way back out. It makes me extremely thankful for the good health we enjoy most of the other times.

So I had these thoughts on Sunday:

Have you ever hidden from your kids in plain sight? I never have.

I lied.

I will never admit to possessing boundless physical grace and coordination. In fact, I have had more than my share of embarrassing, uncoordinated moments. I regularly drop things, walk into walls, run into parked objects with a car (that’s another post for another day), you get the idea. I’d like to share a couple of my experiences with you partly because I think they’re hilarious in hindsight, and in hopes that we can all learn something about the power of humor, intentional laughter and self-awareness.

Does your family participate in the stuffing versus dressing debate at Thanksgiving? Are you sharply divided, or do you all agree? Is it a non-issue, so long as it’s on the table? No one is sure when stuffing/dressing was first created, and the mix of ingredients has changed over time, although the main ingredients of broken up bread and various herbs have mostly remained the same.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you find tidbits to enrich your life and encouragement for your journey! Sit a spell. Let’s be intentional together. Imperfections and all, you are welcome here.
