It is always good to hear from old friends. Today I heard from an old friend of whom I had not seen or heard from in quite some time. It was so good to get to hear from her. We spent close to an hour just catching up and reflecting about old times. We talked about the folks we both knew and how much our kids had grown. We have both gone in different directions. Her to the State Capitol and me to a rescue mission. Boy, how our lives have changed! There are some people regardless of how much distance or change may happen between you still seem to be as close as ever. I still use Becky-isms quite often. I wish we could get together more. Thank God for the phone.........
One of our girls (as we call them) stopped by today. She was on her way to work a small job to make money to pay off her DUI school. She looks good. Her Mom was with her. It is amazing to see how much her mother has changed also. When God does a work in someones life He does it good!
Scott and Bobby finished some detail work today. Hanging blinds, towel racks, etc. Things are coming together. We scheduled our Volunteer training for Dec 30, 2008. The new session will soon be here. I hope we can accomplish all we need to get done before it begins, busy, busy, busy...........
L is struggling with a commitment of 6 more months. she is struggling even more staying clean. You would think the choice would be easy. She needs more time in recovery and more time to finish her GED. She is continually making the wrong decisions about friends and drugs. she needs the six more months. There are so many young people around her dying from drug overdose. I am afraid that she will be on that list if she does not make the commitment to come.
Old friends, old situations and old habits.......
