Mission Complete: Lots To Think About
BabyD, LittleD and I, along with our mission team, came rolling in late Friday night from our trip to the Appalachian region of Kentucky over spring break. I have plenty to blog about after the experience. I've really had a perspective change (or maybe a confirmation?) about the poor, poor economic situation in that region. Overall, I'd say it was a good experience, and I'd love to do another trip. The question for me, personally, would be: To where? Right now, I'm just catching up on what's been happening in the blogosphere while we were gone. (I didn't take a computer, since our cell coverage was spotty at best.) I've also spent today catching up on a week of minimal sleep with a few cat naps between loads of laundry. And, I'm most grateful that The Husband got the water on and running just minutes before we got home last night. He was home all week, fighting the flu and tearing out the plumbing in our two bathrooms to fix a leak. (Can you say: Glad to be out of town??!) He actually texted me when we were an hour out to tell me I might want to stop so we can pee somewhere! I threatened to just stay at the Holiday Inn last night and come home today! I was so, so glad I got to take a HOT and LENGTHY shower in a WARM ROOM before bed last night!

Looking forward to hearing about your trip!
ReplyDeleteOh my, sounds like your husband had a rough go of it last week! I'm glad you are home safe though and can't wait to read about your trip. I went on a mission to West Virginia when I was about LittleD's age that changed my perception on life at the time. Can't beat the life experience!
ReplyDeleteWelcome home, and I can't wait to read your stories. So glad you had hot water to come to and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteVery excited to hear more about your trip. Get some rest. Pray. Write. Give that hubby a big hug.
