Then...came home....worked....and got ready for my Aunt Helen's Viewing....John was going to come, but as we were getting ready to walk out the door, he found out his 59 year old cousin, had just passed away.... he wanted to get with his family.... oh my...
I went to the Funeral Home....and saw so many folks I haven't seen Forever....They had home movies playing....from the 50's....My Dad and Mom were in some.... I couldn't believe it.....Dad looked like Jack Kennedy.... Tanned.... a Big Smile....so Laid Back....Mom....looked like Barbara Stanwick, with dark hair..... My Cousin, Judy, said I look like my Aunt did, in those images... hmmm...maybe a little...
Today....I'm getting me, ready...then heading to the Nursing Home, to get Mom dressed, and ready....then a Wheel Chair Van, will take her, and I'll meet her at the Funeral Home... It's going to be a long...long...day...
I don't know anything about John's Cousin....man...what a shock....and my friend and I just got off the phone....we were counting blessings....I'll be back to business.... tomorrow...
Love...to ya...

As I opened my 'Streams in the Desert', this morning....to see what message was for me, today....I opened it to "Sing...to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything. {Ephesians 5:19-20}....and I realized....that is exactly what my friend and I had been doing since the accident....the parallels... the blessings....it was like a huge puzzle...we put together, over breakfast... how Everything....fit so perfectly together... the God Winks...even my Aunt...as I looked at all of the images they had taken over a lifetime......I said...how Blessed they all were...to have such an Amazing Journey.... and...also...what joy, they must be having....being together again...just like the movies, we were watching....not in old...sick bodies....but in fine, Strong Spirits... oh yes...I have no doubt.....
Love to You All....
and......remember...to watch for the God Winks...They are always there...
With..the Angels with 2x4's...if you don't pay attention, to the Winks!
