Where Did I Go?
My mother still doesn’t believe you even exist. She says it’s impossible. … If I can get a stamp, I’ll mail another card today. If not, I’ll try and mail it tomorrow.
If anyone ever wonders why it takes dreamers so long to carry out their dreams, you need to look only at the lonely hearts who have to overcome the objections of their own mother. I thank God that my brother had enough faith to die for me.
If you are wondering what true love looks like, it is shaped like a cross. ❤️ (at Livingchristian.org) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8_4B8IHHRy/?igshid=xvid8r52284x
Having trouble with uploads this morning. I’ll try again this evening. In the meantime, you can stream some of my older mixes or, better yet, buy some tracks at an online digital music store or have something shipped to your house!
I played my extremely intelligent niece in chess last year. I went in thinking, “OK, this will be humbling.” So I figured I’d play it cool and try to beat her, as she had actually taken lessons, but about four moves in I realized that I was already the baby stuck in the corner. So, no, Sybil, we know you’re the smartest! And while I may agree to play chess with you again in the future, just know that I know that my heart’s only in the things where I know I can win at the end. ;)
It was a bad morning, so I’m ending the day by officially checking my man-card at the door. I finally watched the Sex and the City movie.
Pray for the virus victims. Let us pray that we will be back together again in time for summer!

Anyone else thankful they did not watch last night’s so-called slugfest?
Wrote this before my #cancer diagnosis. It still seems relevant -- a day can make all the difference in the world! (This book and the second installment are also available at smile.amazon.com.)
