BODY COUNT: 2

izzy and i have been busy...
yesterday morning beau let izzy out and she went back to the same place in the side hill that she had been obsessed with for about 24 hours. after a few minutes she was "playing" with a new friend. after izzy sent her new friend to mole heaven (she is sugar all over again - our old mole killing dog) i found a mouse (!) in the garage. my throat literally hurt from screaming so loud and it sent izzy under the bed. i set a trap and the rest is cold blooded history....
if you need an extermination, just call the somers girls.

YEAH...SO IF YOU COULD JUST....THANKS

for anyone who has ever had a roommate or worked at a church (or anywhere else), you will love this: www.passiveaggressivenotes.com
when i came to our church about a year ago there were passive aggressive notes taped all over the kitchen. i threw them away and they were quickly replaced...so funny.
enjoy.

HOME!!!! WELCOME

i had a wonderful time in nashville - it was right on time in so many ways....physically, spiritually, and mentally.
the only thing better than an awesome weekend full of anointed female clergy was coming home to my awesome husband and sweet dog. beau had a sign and flowers waiting for me (notice the switch of the words - he didn't realize it until well after he had put the sign up).
home!!!! welcome to me....

FUN @ AUNT BETH & UNCLE BEAU'S

ummmmm.....all i can say is they had so much FUN doing this...it was quite hilarious.
i love these girls (and their parents).

A KIND OF PEACE

yesterday was david's memorial service. i was one of three officiants...there were so many people there and so much grief that a deep quiet accompanied the afternoon.
today was jack's (our friends, nate & giordi's, son) dedication...so surreal to release life and welcome it at the same time.
so tonight i sit with some peppermint herbal tea (with a splash of honey)...hoping to relax tonight...tomorrow...before the board meeting...before the trip to nashville...before busy-ness takes a hold of my neck again and does not let go...i wonder when life will slow down enough to allow me to just rest...
