It's Been Awhile And Things Have Been Hoppin'

it's been quite a long time since i have made an appearance here...a little too long. it's not that there hasn't been anything going on to write about. it's the fact that there has been tooooooooo much going on. and did i start enough sentences with "it's" for you? first, thank you for your prayers. the cloud has passed, the situation is not gone, but the effect i was letting it have on my life is. enough said. anyway, i'm going to try for a blogging marathon. this would have been done last night but my camera and computer seem to be having a bit of a tiff whereas the computer will not upload anything from the camera. so, dear husband was sweet enough to transfer these to his mac for me and then over to this here pc. thank you! so hold onto your seats...it's going to be a long and bumpy ride!
