My friend from another city returned from her eleven day trip yesterday. She had met another friend who lives here, and together they went on this trip. She was extremely tired and spent the night with me before going home this morning. We sit up till eleven o'clock talking about all the fun they had while gone. Her feet and legs were swollen, but other than that she did very well physically. Especially since she had been trying for two months to get well enough to make this trip. She brought me two pretty tops which I like a lot. She did a quite a lot of shopping while she was gone. I look forward to having her back.
My own trip will begin this Friday. I will be traveling to Abilene, Texas to be with a son, and daughter-in-law a week before going on to Austin for my granddaughter's college graduation. My daughter and her family will join us there. An after graduation celebration will happen that evening. Friday May 18th. We are so proud of this granddaughter who graduated in three years. She has worked hard, and earned every bit of the honor she will be getting. Chuck will be here to watch my home while I am gone. It seems like I have been bouncing around a lot lately. I have had my hand in several important matters. Several of my friends needed me to help them in some way or another. I was glad to be part of their need, and thank God for working out all things well. It has left me full of joy, but need to calm down myself, and get back to living my life one day at a time. It's hard for me to dismiss all my worries when I felt so involved in helping God do his work. I had to be showed He did not need my help, just my praise. I did not know all my prayers would not be answered just like I wanted them to be, but I know now that God is still at work. I praise him for everything that helped my family, and friends get a better hold on life. His ways are perfect.
God Bless
