Why do I always wait to post until late at night? If I want to upload photos, it takes forever, and usually I'm so tired I can't think of much to say. So I am going to start changing my blogging schedule. I am going to start blogging during the day. I am sure this is of great interest to almost no one, but I have to post tonight or I will blow my NaBloPoMo goal for November. Yes, I should have a better motivation for posting than just meeting this silly goal, but I have a tiny competitive streak. Other bloggers I know are also taking the challenge. Translated: if I don't post tonight I'll lose!!!
Okay, there are actually several things to mention in a post. The first, my friend Shannon is possibly making her way home from Peru tomorrow. OR, she will stay until Tuesday because she has this wild desire to hike Machu Picchu. Actually, she and I were going to do this together, so if she does stay to make this hike she is still obligated to go back with me and do the hike again. I hope you are reading this dear friend. Her trip was wonderful. Of course, she learned much about the Peruvian people, and about herself and about God while she was high in the mountains of this wonderful country. I can't wait to hear her voice. We talk on the phone every Sunday, and I have missed our conversations.
Also, my friend Dana just got back from China with a tiny little baby girl who is sleeping through the night. Caisy is her name, and she has two beautiful sisters who are also from China. What a blessing. Dana is a single mom, and is a remarkable person. Alison is begging for a baby sister from China, and this is probably is not going to happen (remember I have learned to never say never) so I am hoping we will get to visit Dana soon so that Alison can get her "baby fix". Of course, this will not work. After she sees this precious baby, she will only ramp up her efforts for a little sister. I will remind her that Dad and I are too old (we're really not, but the teenagers are making us feel old) and that it is fun to be the youngest (this is not true and she knows it) plus we are completely out of rooms (she has graciously offered to share her room, but the hamster lives there and runs noisily on his wheel all night so this probably wouldn't work). We will stay strong. No more babies.
So there is my post and I actually did have something to say. Maybe I will keep my late-night schedule.
