Summertime Blues

Yet again I've neglected posting anything. I guess it really doesn't matter, since no one reads this anyways. If you do, could you drop me a line & let me know? That way I feel important, that someone cares what I have to say.

Anyways, summer is pretty much over. It's been busy, moreso than usual. Camp, as usual, was amazing. Last year we challenged them to "each one bring one" & they took us up on it. We had 58 total, the largest jr high camp in recent history. Even with all the chaos, it was good. I hope, I pray, that at least one came to know God in a closer way. After camp, I had a week to finish preparations for VBS. Avalanche Ranch, a wild ride through God's word. And believe me, "wild" isn't the half of it. Not a lot of kids, but the few we had seemed to enjoy it. Then another week to recover before going on vacation. Mom always wanted to go back to Myrtle Beach, so dad took her, me, my niece and nephew. The condo was unbelievable, practically right on the beach so we had an amazing view. I definitely want to go back someday, preferably when it's not quite as hot. It was fun, but we weren't able to do a lot because of the heat.

Now, summer's over, life's settling back to normal, & of course that means that it's time for some new crisis. In some ways I was expecting it, so I wasn't quite as caught off-guard as I could have been. But still, I didn't expect it this fast. God, be with my family right now; this is going to take all the strength we've got to face this.
