Mid-September 2014

Well, I must say that even though I have been hoping for and anxiously awaiting the opportunity to get a guitar for a few years now, I didn’t realize how badly I’ve missed having one until now.  I am the proud owner of a new guitar!!  Thanks to the generosity of some dear friends and my loving family.  I can’t describe how much it means to me to be able to enjoy something that has always meant so much to me and has always been such a release for me. To the Huckabys, Sessions, and the various Coles, I give my sincerest of thanks.  And special thanks to Roy for making it all happen.

I wonder if Bo is watching the show 24 on Fox.  I remember back in the day it was must-see TV.  Jack Bauer had our attention one night a week no questions asked.  And yet, I haven’t been able to get into the new season.  But I do hope it’s being enjoyed.

“Under My Skin” by Frank Sinatra is my song of the day.  That song popped into my head as I thought about Bo earlier.  I remembered us singing it on his karaoke machine one night after going on a church bowling outing.  Good song.  Good times.  Sing it, Bo!

“It’s easy to take a good thing and make it the greatest thing in our lives.”  These are strong words by pastor and author, John Bysort.  I also believe them to be dangerous and true.
