It's been such a fast week. We built a web presence for Tim's company, updated all my social media accounts, attended Gangplank events, attended a casual seminar on public speaking, spent time with old friends, prayed and shared with other friends, Tim hiked up Piestewa Peak, went shopping with Moni & Gloria, had a nice dinner at home with the girls, and now we pick up the motor home and drive home, which should take about 4 1/2 hours with gas-ups and stopping in ShowLow for groceries.
Tomorrow we get up really early for the church's Men's Shoot. Tim & Logan will be competing against other men, women and kids for a chance to win the gun everyone's firing. I'll be there to socialize and take lots of pictures.
This next week, I'll be working on improving my sites, creating the LMT blog site, as well as creating Moni's sites. I really enjoy the creativity of that - like scrapbooking with purpose.
Well, gotta shut down to pack up the computer.
I'll be back.

A Perfect Day
I'm down in Phoenix this week enjoying helping Tim grow his business, taking in some public speakers, working on improving my own business social media, spending time with friends, and getting some time here and there to just relax with Tim, uninterrupted.
When people asked me over the years, "What's your perfect day?" I would talk about being on a family trip or cruise, the bills are paid, maybe we're doing something new with those we love, but you know what? You can learn to be just as content where you're at today.
Yesterday was pretty close to A Perfect Day. I'm in the valley, where lately, I've figured out is more my home than the mountains, although I really enjoy some aspects of it - especially in the summer. I also realized how much I miss our old church, the friends there, and fulfilling my purpose helping women through issues from a biblical perspective. I had a great dinner with friends we used to meet with regularly. We did life deeply together and grew together back then. I even got to sit through a whole movie with Tim without phones ringing, and people walking in to interrupt us.
It was a perfect day - we aren't anywhere exotic, our savings definitely isn't where we'd like it to be, we weren't experiencing a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, but it was perfect. Simple. Warm. Heart-filling. Joyful. Peaceful.
What more could I expect than that?
