First snow?

Life gets chaotic sometimes. Ups and downs and ups and downs and waaayyy ups and waaaay downs. I've been having an interesting time of it all, what with my mum having lymphoma and starting chemo (she's still in Vancouver for another couple weeks) and my brother being all gone away to Switzerland (again) and my dad working like crazy because it's necessary (as usual.) You'd think I'd be used to it by now. I suppose I have my ways of dealing with not having my family around. It normally doesn't bother me that they're far away, but when you face trials, there's comfort to be found in family. But praise the Lord for giving me His family to lean on! So many people around here take care of me, because they all know I can't cook..


I still have mixed feelings about everything, of course. Life is kinda weird like that. Sometimes I really feel like a lost little girl. Or maybe indifferent is the right word. Uncaring. Caught in a neutral mindset. But then it snows, and I am filled with rage, and all is well again. 'Cause a little emotion helps the day go by.


If you were reading this while I was in Tanzania, then this will seem familiar... I love getting mail!! So I shall discreetly slip my address into this here blog, in hopes of someday receiving a letter from YOU! Yes, you.

And thank you to everyone who has been praying for my family. It's sweet. And it's appreciated. Much love to all y'all!
