What a difference a minute can do...

So WOW - life can change in an instant... REALLY greatful it didn't today, but it could have.  We have the truck in the shop for some scheduled work.  I passed out on the bed - OK sleeping really well and deeply - so Gary went to pick up a rental car (Enterprise - they picked him up) and left me sleeping... Not even 10 minutes later I get a call - - 'Honey I've been in an accident' - - The best words came just after those words - 'I'm OK' - Thank you God!!  So I put shoes on and head 1 1/2 blocks and keep him company while a police report was done and then we head over to Enterprise... and the day continues...

So we are relaxing and taking advantage of the down time... sure we have 'wait' time when in the truck, but this is true down time... no time to have to be ready to go - except Sunday when the truck is suppose to be done. 

This downtime I think is so needed... we haven't had any since the first part of February and that wasn't really 'down' time since we were dealing with Momma stuff... I have slept on and off all day... Gary has napped and relaxed on the couch in the room.  We at first were going to go out and do 'something' - not sure what - maybe the gift Lynn gave Gary for his birthday - but just 'sitting' is feeling SO good... we might do something tomorrow - or maybe not - and even that feels good.  Oh sure there are things I 'should' do... but this just feels good to relax and 'veg' out... haven't done that in AGES!

Just think - since last June we have traveled over 174,000 miles!! Amazes me sometimes :)

Windows...

Well it looks like one door is closing, but I don't see any windows opening... Which hallway do I go down to find this window that is suppose to open?

What am I talking about?  Well it looks like we might be coming off the road... unless we decide to pack everything we want to keep in a storeroom and sell everything else.  Which at this point, I would go for, but it would just about destroy Gary I think (I could be wrong about that though).  That would take us out of most of our debt and we wouldn't have to worry about a 'place' to maintain or the bills that go with one... just a storeroom.  The hard part about that though - the place has been where he grew up, we raised our daughter, we built a new house.  We were hoping for it to be our 'nest egg' and for it to be passed down... yeah... well at this point, I don't see that happening.  However, maybe it is for the best... fresh starts and all that.  Learning how not to hang on to the past... OK - I'm trying to blow rainbows up my backside - but I have to do something or I feel like I will fall in such a slick walled well that I might not be able to get out of it.

So I'm requesting prayers for that window to have some light shining in it... so I know where to look... and until then I will just put one foot in front of the other and continue on...
