Wow! That was scary. I was doing what I always do and I found that another name came up when I tried to log on. My suspicion was that my blog had been hacked and I worried that some long and costly remedy in time and money would be required. Somehow I avoided that and clicked on the right thing because I got it back, and here I go: I didn't think that my weekend had fallen into such a routine, but here I am not having written on the weekend again. I just got into the living of it and didn't worry about the writing of it. And now that it is over I will try to find something worthwhile about it to record. Easy job though, because just our FHE was noteworthy enough for that. It was a time for Sheila to show off her furniture and for us to eat well and enjoy each other. Sharon's pasta bar was a hit and their lesson was thought provoking and hopefully something for the kids (and oldsters) to learn from. I personally enjoyed the observation of our little kingdom deal with our mortality in such a positive and together kind of way. I thought as I observed the calendaring of our future about how hard it is to plan anything with so many busy people and families. But then I realized the neatest thing about it. Despite the challenge we want to get together! Sure, conflicts arise and sure, lots of us are extremely busy, but time together is a family priority. Somehow most of the events did get scheduled, and several family events are in the plans and will continue our family legacy. Total participation, near impossible, but all we can do is the best that we can do, and enjoy what we are able to enjoy. That was the case thoughout the rest of the evening. The youngsters seemed to find plenty to do downstairs and no one got stitches or broke anything, and most of the rest enjoyed their time upstairs. The laughter was loud and frequent and I didn't see any pouting or taking offense or selfish behavior there to take away from the evening. Seems like we all do have our own very busy ways that we are pursuing, but being together helps us all and adds to our journeys by drawing and sharing from each other. This family is just fun for me, and I know that grand ma feels the same way. Sunday morning we had been called into the Bishop's office. But tht ended up being sort of a bust. No real calling was issued so after the normal fretting things just remained the same. He did 'plant seeds' about options that we already have thought about so we will just continue trying to figure out what we can do with ourselves. But considering the main context of what I have just written we will just keep on trying to do better what we are already doing. And our 'future' will continue being sort of a mystery and a befuddling destination, but something we do look forward to since we will be able to share it with our 'conundrum family'.
