Ups and Downs

Just a quick post today.  I wanted to let you know that my speech went well.  I missed a few things here and there, but it turned out to be pretty good.  The class seemed to like it and best of all I got 100% from the teacher!  I was so excited and so glad it was over.  Of course, another one is coming up next Tuesday, January 27th, but I took some time to enjoy my success.  By the way, my speech was on How to Take a Selfie!  I might print it on here one day.

That was the up side for this week.

Today, was quite the opposite.  We received word that my father-in-law passed away at about noon today.  He had been in failing health for about a month, but we really thought he would bounce back. Tomorrow the arrangements will need to be made.  It's gonna be a tough few days.  I am so glad that we have God to lean on in these times.  He will supply the strength for this family to get through this, and we'll come out the other side remembering what a great man John was.

I need to get to bed early tonight, so that's all I have for tonight.  Prayers are greatly appreciated.

Until we talk again, may peace fill your souls.

  2. Thanks so much. It's been a tough week and a half. Aside from the funeral and all, I became pretty sick for awhile. I got my second speech done, though, and got an A+! I came home right after and went back to sleep! Finally feeling better.
