| The wedding's over...everyone's settled in to the summer, and doing the things they want to or need to do....all is right with the world. I really don't want the summer to pass us by, and know that we didn't take any time to enjoy it, with family and friends. Let's celebrate life....resting in the knowledge that love is the distinguishing factor and the ultimate thermometer that guages our character. Oh yeah...let's have a picnic too.  | | |
| Jump any mountains lately? Wrestle any alligators? Win a horse race? Sky dive? Me either....just thought I'd put it all in perspective. We're always beating ourselves up for not "doing" anything exciting...or challenging. But I got out of bed, hugged my family, prayed, read the Life book, worked hard, made money to support myself, was nice to my podiatrist (even though he gave me a shot in my foot), smiled at people who needed it, was actually nice to the grocery store check out lady, and saved a cat from getting run over. Not too shabby...for an unexciting day. Here's a pic to enjoy...no reason for it...I just like it. | | |
| I sit and wait....waiting until the pain seeps into your soul....the kind of pain that only God can make disappear. I'm here, if you need me. I will always be here. | | |
| I feel like a spectator in my childrens' lives. It's a cruel prognosis that this disease called "time" plays on all parents. The funny thing is..that you don't see it comin..it sneaks up on you. You're standin there one day tellin everyone what to do...and then BAM...it slaps ya in the back of the head. It takes a while to figure out what hit you and where it came from. You're dizzy...disorientated...and a little pissed. Once you focus...you look out and realize what "it" is. Life is never the same....not worse...just never the same. Children grab time, and run with it. If you are lucky...they will include you, but for the most part, you are a spectator. It's not their fault...it's time's fault. They don't understand...how could they? It's a secret...that only older parents share...parents..who want so much to request a "do-over", knowing full well that do-overs are only allowed for the insane. You can't control it or stop it...you can only stand there watching...wondering how each child will allow you to follow their time travels..if only for a little while. This is how it should be. They won't realize it...until one day..they turn around to see if you are looking....but you will only be a tiny speck at the end of the road...which will eventually disappear. | | |
| I'm back....where does the time go? I opened an account on "myspace"....makes me feel young..HA..Come visit me over there, when you get the chance. When you search...just key in"Lori Hufnagel-Young". Thanksgiving was awesome...we had all the kids home, and ate like pigs. Life is good!  | | |
