My thoughts seem to be a bit....well.....scattered lately. I keep remembering or thinking of random things that happened that I want to KEEP in my head, so I'm going to write some of them here over the next few days. Please bear with me in my scattered randomness....
The one thing I really wanted to find was my glasses. My optical shop is sort of GONE now, and I only had that pair. Not a big deal, but wanted them none-the-less. I usually put them in the top drawer of my night side table, but I admit...I was lazy and left them on top this time. Shame shame. Needless to say, when the window over my night side table EXPLODED (or imploded? What's the tornadically correct term?) everything in the vicinity flew far away. I'd searched my bedroom to to avail. Several days after the actual storm I was walking around the outside of the house when I noticed a green bottle on the ground. It was my hand lotion from my night side table. Hmmmm....I walked over to the area outside of my bedroom window and started to search. There, in the tree, were my glasses. Unbroken, unbent, and definitely NOT in the drawer. Small mercies??? I'll take 'em!

His mercies are indeed new every morning - even the small mercies. Shannon, I agree with your prayers of thankfulness that you and your family are okay. I am so sorry this has happened. I can't imagine the pain and sorrow you all are feeling. I'm praying for you - that you will find strength and comfort during this trial. If there is any way we can help, please let us know. Hugs -
