The picture above so perfectly fits and describes my story—uphill, downhill, round and round, exciting, and scary, bright spots and dark spots. My “joyful journey” has sometimes been an amazing thrill ride and sometimes just a big downward spiral! But, the emotional, mental, and physical struggles are all part of the story, and through it all, I see clear reflections of God’s amazing grace.

Again!











Well, I guess there won't be any dips in the pool today--it's "winter" again!

Although we had a few nice days of almost spring-like weather (snow and ice all gone), today all the area schools are closed--again, and Larry's workplace is closed--again, plus, I've just cancelled the ladies Bible study group for tonight--again!! Seems wimpy, right? It's because Dallas has no snow plows, since they are seldom needed. Plus, this always starts out as freezing rain or sleet, so the roads quickly become sheets of ice before it turns into snow.

Wouldn't you know...our first winter in Dallas turns out to have record-breaking winter weather! This is not at all what we expected for Dallas, Texas! However, this is predicted to last only a few days and then return to temperatures in the 60's and 70's by the weekend. What a roller-coaster ride we're getting!
