I'll start off with a little gossip for the family, but I guess that if it is true it isn't gossip, its news.  Sharolyn told me that AmandaRae got into her 1st accident on her 2nd day of driving!  She was driving home and took the turn into their driveway too fast.  At least one neighbor's mailbox plus collateral damage and a bent fender and a ruined tire.  She was totally embarrassed and affected by her mistake.  As least she got it over early on in her driving training time.  It should serve her well as a good lesson, at least that is my hope.  Our other news was actually much more positive.  Sheila had been carrying around this feeling that she needed to do more to make contact with Crystal.  She has had her birthday present for quite a while and her phone calls and texts seemed to have been ignored.  So yesterday she 'stalked' the place and finally got courage to knock on the front door.  To her surprise she was invited in by a smiling Catie and after a while Jeremy got there with Crystal.  Grand ma had a nice visit with Crystal and learned that Jeremy had gotten a new phone.  Not perfect, but certainly much better then a poke in the eye with a sharp stick! Then she enjoyed time at The Aquarium with Sharon's family, and finally got home around 9 and was exhausted from her long day.  (Stalking will take it out of you every time!)   My day was a 'tender mercy' of new work that I still have to finish up this morning.  And new things that I learned about Beit Lehi near Jerusalem.  I'm almost convinced to rate Monday as 'great', but I'll settle for 'very good' with room for more, especially from me.  I could have done more!
