I can't believe that after TWO Years, I have finally returned to this blog site. My writer friend, Marty Gordon found me on Facebook and it was meant to be. I have participated in many of Marty's classes in the past and he has always amazed me at his journaling and blogging. I told him that he needed to motivate me to write, and he has done so.

There has been so much that has happened over the years since blogging. I will list a few.

• My daughter, Rachel married the love of her life, Chase Mantooth on June 24, '06
• Our son, Jared married the perfect Godly mate, Jennifer on Dec. 16, '06
• Tom was called to fulltime as Minister of Music at FBC, Hartwell, GA in July 07
• Sold our house in Greenville, SC in 17 days
• Closed on our Hartwell house 11/1/07
• March 17, 07 fell down steps at church and broke my shoulder - had surgery a week later and am STILL in an immobilizer strap.
• April 20, 07 tripped down MORE steps (#$#$^*&^$%*&) and sprained my ankle (same side as shoulder)

Needless to say, I have determined that me and steps don't work well together!

I have also been participating in the Beth Moore study - Stepping UP. This has been a great study on The Psalms of Ascent.

Well, Its after 11 PM and its an effort to try to type this with two hands.

Thanks for the motivation Marty----I'll try to not let you down.
