shop till you drop

Just because I am putting a new post on my blog doesn’t mean ya’ll are off the hook. You still have to respond to my last post about where home is/what “home” means for you. Thanks to Frankie and Joanna who did answer. :-) And the rest of you – leave me your comments! This is fodder for my show. :-) So today was a day of shopping. It started with my mom and I going to Old Time Pottery…

house for sale

I’ve talked about my home in Atlanta… my grandmother’s house… I’ve grown up there, although I’ve never lived there for more than a few months at a time.

ups and downs

Up: We got an email from our pastor from our church in Muncie encouraging us not to worry about the fees. He said some of them can be waived, and he’d see about getting others reduced. I think it will be more like $200 for custodial services rather than $700. That’s a relief! (BTW, this includes having the reception at the church.) Down: I turned on my laptop today for the first time since I got home a month ago…
