I wasn't counting, now I'm surprised.
I didn't realize that I have written over 105 of these blog entries. Wow that's over three months worth. Those of you who know me the best probably chuckle that I have stayed committed to anything that long. At least I am chuckling. I mentioned I finished my first book in 20 years in the park walking an forgot to mention it was "Tuesdays with Morrie", a wonderful book and yes, I know , only about 6 pages long, but it was still a first for me. I'm now enjoying the sequel on Morrie in his own words, and really enjoying it now.Wednesday was generally a crummy day physically but a great day socially. Bob and I went to lunch at Bob Evans and yes, I had fruit. Just sitting an chatting is such a reward and a peaceful thing to do. I hope that all of you when your time comes to retire or slow down, will see just how important starting friendships can be. My friend Fred also came to visit and graciously gave me a "Pedometer" which will keep track of my steps each day. I love gadgets and have never owned one so I'm looking forward to my next walk in the park. It actually will track my steps all day which should be interesting as well. Thanks Fred, sincerely. Then tomorrow I have lunch being brought over and a a chance to look a pictures with a very dear young friend. The word is good fresh vegetable soup and catching up on her travels and pictures. This young lady entered my heart years ago as a teen and now I'm enjoying her comfort and friendship as a young adult too.
Then Jim and I will do our mall walking as well so my new Pedometer will get it's first workout.
I do want to remind everyone that this is Holy Week at our local churches and each day there is some kid of service to attend that can re-awaken the spirit of the Easter season. Take time to share one of those days with those you love and are close to you, and re kinder the the story of Christ's love for all of us. It's an easy one and I can vouch for how important it gets later on when more of the fog and garbage clears from in front of your eyes. It's a wonderful time in the church to say Thank You, I love you, and I missed you.
What on earth is going on outside? I just noticed the window thermometer showing 20's. Yikes. Well if you come visit me, I have plenty of wonderful prayer shawls that so many great people have made for me to share. So come on down. My day ended once again with stress and meds, yet as they took effect, I found it so easy to reflect on the good things I have. Like spending the afternoon just snuggling with my daughter as she tried to convince me she was my favorite. But I do love her so very much. You are all loved, God bless you all.

Hallo again, my dear friend!
You write about your readers the other day. I'm one of those who read your blog very day if I can. We went to our cabin in the easter days and there is no computer on the net there. But after some days I had to borrow Erik's big Nokia-cellphone to try to reach the net from it and be able to read your postings. I managed - and I also found the mail from Elisabeth in LA. So, go on writing, dear friend, your readers expects so! Have a very nice trip to NY - I'm sorry we can't follow you this time and share a bear with you. We remember these days with joy!
Huuuuge hug!
I'm reading this entry for about the 5th time, and anxiously awaiting the next. As always, my prayers and thoughts are sent eastward to a person who is priceless to so many, as well to your family and friends who are on this journey with you.
Terri B.
