This is another one of those days when I keep writing and rewriting blogs.I had a great one called "serfs and minions," but it fizzled in the process.
I actually climbed into bed at 6 tonight with a glass of wine and a new issue of WORLD magazine. But I got up again. I managed to stay in bed an hour before I got antsy.
This has been a really long week so far.
I keep straining forward to see what is in the future. I want to hit the button that will advance me one year up, just to see what's coming. Wouldn't that be cool? I live in this constant state of excited expectation. I think that must be why life is so much fun. I shrug off yesterday pretty easily. Is that normal? Maybe it's denial.
It's just that things do change from time to time, and the process is never at all boring. It's a sure bet that if my life is quiet today, someone else will have a story. There's always something new ...And so it goes.
I hope that you are on the edge of your seat, too. Something is going to happen tomorrow...or the next day...And then I will write about it!

The only item up with me is a reoccuring dream where I am on immigration patrol along the Austrian border, tasked with keeping illegal aliens out.
Through the boredom and tedium of duty, I find myself hallucinating through my rifle scope. Could that really be tiny gummi-bears, roped together, ascending the highs of Switzerland's peaks? Can that be Drost chocolate they are carrying???!!!!
Illegal immigrants and contriband as well! I will get a promotion for this one!
I cycle a round into the chamber. Do I clip the rope or tag the head gummi? What do you think?
Does this mean something......?
I had to go back and re-read the original post after I read KJP's comment.
No. There was not anything about gummy bears carrying contraband across the Swiss border in your original post.
I am not going crazy.
I really have no desire to fast forward a year. I can just barely make it through today most of the time.
But I am living from a different base - one that is settled. I can see your desire to look ahead. There are lots of possibilities for you...
Love you, friend.
Well, I can not say whether you are crazy or not Cathy, but I took her post to mean she is wanting an interesting story. Best I could up with somewhere after midnight for me.....
Kelly,
Next time you eMail, please include an address for yourself! i would reply but yours come with no valid address and your profile lacks an address as well!
I wanted to write a series of letters on this subject for my nephew and his girlfriend - and as I was writing, in the back of my mind was the question as to whether or not someone (like you) was going to be offended. Oh we will hit arranged marriages - trust me on that one as well as many other issues!
So, I am glad none was taken! Often, I KNOW we find ourselves in situations beyond our control where the only opportunity is to carry-on with our responsibilities, though our heart may desire otherwise. You have shown some tremendous maturity in your earlier posts - one of the reasons I stuck around - to see where you were are going. I hope you are taking that maturity forward into the teaching of the young women of your church. Your viewpoint is desperately needed in this culture.
Well, it is late (8 hours ahead of you), I am waxing philosophically - rather than being a clown and that usually means time for sleep or I need more sugar.
