Wow, this month has just flown by. We returned form our Texas/Oklahoma wanderings followed shortly by a weekend in Flagstaff for Eddie and Vanessa, and a short trip to San Diego to see "Switchfoot" in concert for the boys and their cousin.
Course seven of "camp chemo" has been completed this past Monday. Since being removed from treatment for six weeks and slowly having the residual effects dissipated over the course of that time, I was just beginning to feel normal, or as normal as I have felt within the past 9 months. Well, it didn't take long to find myself back in the all too familiar world of chemo symptoms and their ability to restrict your activities to those that would be familiar to a three-toed sloth.
Clint is off tomorrow for work camp at Mountain Meadows outside of Payson on the Mogollon RIm. It should be beautiful up there in cool pines and away from the incessant glowing nuclear orb affixed directly over our house bringing temperatures not fitted for man nor beast nor devil from hell.
We are coming close to the celebration of the founding of our great nation and the signing of the Declaration of Independence. May we keep the intent and purpose of our revolution close to our hearts as we celebrate another year of American freedom under the greatest of governments founded under republican structure and form in history. May God's blessing remain on us throughout this coming year.
Matthew 5:14-16; "You are the light of the world, A city set on a hill cannot be hidden, 15 Nor do people light a lamp and put in under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven."
May we Americans remember, especially during this time of reflection and celebration, to be that light of the world in righteousness for the glory of our Father in Heaven.
Peace and Grace
EL
