The bathroom is still out of commission, there is still a layer of dust on most surfaces, but you know what? The sun is SHINING and it's going to be a beautiful day (yes, warm enough for flip-flops!).
We had plans to visit friends this weekend for our first family trip. However, because we simply have to get the bathroom back on-line and putting that off until next week simply isn't smart we have had to change our plans. The situation brought to mind this scripture, so apt for much of our recent life!
Brian and Chrissie - we WILL make it out to you soon.
Trying to adapt our plans, Emma and I hit the road to go and see what bathroom fixture the Home Depot is offering. I was pleasantly surprised. If we didn't have inches of cement to pull up I'd even think we could re-do the bathroom in one weekend - or have I been watching too many shows on TV!
Back home and Emma is in her summer gear playing on the floor! It would be wonderful to take her outside, but she keeps her eyes closed when it's this bright (she can't squint, remember) and we don't have any leaves on our trees for shade!
There will be time for all that!

Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that."
James 4: 13-15
