Maybe third time's a charm

This is the third time this year I've wanted to blog more.  Maybe this time it will stick.

Here are some things you should know:

• I took a break from focusing on food things.  All my clothes still fit, but I've gained back about twenty pounds.  Today, I'm OK with that, but I know that I need to regain some focus if I want to be healthy and able to give my best to the people I love.
• We have continued to have ups and downs with my mom's health.  Right now, she's in a local nursing home but hopefully that will be temporary.
• Caleb and Daniel are both taller than I am now.  They are wonderful young men with good hearts.  I am honored to be their mom.
• Caleb has his first job.  He's working at a local restaurant that our friend Cheryl runs.  He loves it.  He loves her.  She loves him.  The customers love him.  He's doing a good job and enjoying having some of his own money.
• There are two weeks and two days left in this semester.  Not that I'm counting.
• I still haven't developed a regular exercise routine.
• God is still very, very good in the midst of a life that is sometimes very, very hard.
