| A tree after all! |
Even though we will not be spending Christmas in our current house, a little tree managed to squeeze inside among all of the misplaced furniture and cardboard boxes. My husband and daughter decided to get one while I was down in Virginia visiting my father. This tree was decorated by my daughter and 10 of her friends at her going away party. I was very pleased to return from my trip and see this inside the front door.
If anyone wants a Christmas tree, this little fellow will be out on the curb on December 23, looking for a new home for the holidays.
My sister called late last week to say my dad was not doing very well. I left for Roanoke, Virginia, Saturday morning and spent a couple of hours with him. I visited him twice on Sunday. Saying good bye to him on Sunday evening, I tried to sound upbeat, saying I would return in a couple of weeks. We both knew that would be too long. I called him on my way home Monday to let him know the trip was going well. It was the last time I spoke to him.
Tomorrow, I make another trip down to Virginia for his memorial service.
There are far too many lasts lately.
And way down the road (ok, not too far now) is my new life in Charleston. A light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm so sorry to hear you lost your dad. He must have been something special, after all, he was partly responsible for giving us you.
I am so very sorry. Travel safely-
Oh Kim, I'm so sorry to hear of your lost, so many things you're dealing with right now. What wonderful photos of him with his drums and with your daughter. Take care.

It's best if you set aside a specific amount of time on a weekly basis for marketing your practice, and try to stick to this schedule even when you become discouraged or become tempted to allow other things to take priorityI repeat, one fourth of all the people living at this time are going to be killed by one of the 4 ways mentioned aboveAfter all, you bought it for its mobility, and it's nice to stay in touch via email with your family and friends back home
