zac and i go clamming.

he and i enjoy our beach walks...sometimes we beach clean.
me:
i quit. not much left of me to go around. the cancer roller coaster is a doosie!
my day is: call dad then update fam & friends by phone & fb, my Bible study time, walk the beach w zac, home school w zac, clean house, if ash goes for a run i'll go. lately i've been pulling all the extra stuff out of the sandbox for a garage sale on the 31st...times are lean.
my absolute favorite thing to do is have the house open for teens. after school, dinners and game nights. sometimes they go way late into the morning hours but are such a blessing.
i call dad every morning for an update on mom then call him again in the afternoon and most likely in the evening too. pretty much have my heart torn on where to be.
i am looking forward to the road trip to az. i need some sun and heat in my bones. i need some "Happy Family" in my bones!
so...that's a pretty quick SANDBOX update...catch me on fb too.
