Still trying to get used to this new format.  Right now I am so tired that I really don't want to do this, but I am going to do it because I need to.  Don't know exactly why though, but I am doing it regardless.  Yesterday I did mention our new car, and our future new neighbors.  I didn't mention Sheila's new job.  It is new because she is now a five hour lady instead of 3 and 1/2 and because of the new car I am getting up and taking her to work and picking her up at 12:30.  It does change my schedule some, but I don't mind it.  Our whole family is another year older now too.  Nicholas is back from his  mission and back in school at SVU (Southern Virginia University) and Cortney is well into her freshman year at Air Force, having gone through boot camp and stuff.  Linzi is coming up on her 1/2 way mark in a couple of months.  Later this month Lucas turns 8 and gets baptized.  All of the grand kids are just growing up all over the place.  As for us, well, we are getting older and hopefully wiser.  For myself, I like this stage of my life.  There is so much more for me to learn, and it does help to have already learned a lot.  I am really trying to understand myself.  I've known me for almost 68 years, but I do have a ways to go yet.  I am intrigued with this person who is me, and yet doesn't always seem like me.  And I am so grateful for Sheila  more and more everyday.  I was never smart enough to make that decision.  I know that I had help and there was more orchestration of that deal then I was aware of at that time, but now I see it more clearly and I couldn't be more thankful and thrilled.  And I am just beginning to understand what it means for our future.  Now that really excites, and humbles me!!
