These past few weeks have been much of a blur…doctor appointments and tests, followed by a hospital stay for my dad; the first women’s ministry event under my leadership as campus coordinator; teaching at another campus; trying to determine the cause of the water in my basement and getting it fixed; receiving the news that my daughter has been scheduled for another knee surgery (this will be the third in four years); getting dad back home and settled and continuing to check in and care for him, participating in the wedding of a close friend; and preparing to teach Vacation Bible School. All this in addition to the regular rhythms of life.
