ONE-TRACK MIND

Can't believe I haven't blogged since day before Thanksgiving.  That's cuz I've got a one-track mind -- but what else can you expect when I'll be 82 tomorrow!!!  Whoo-eee!

Thanksgiving Day we woke up to icy roads and an inch or so of snow -- all in a country where my husband claims he has seen more winters without snow than with the stuff!  Of course the news was showing pictures of cars sliding uncontrollably down the hills and streets of Seattle.  This only served to remind me of a number of years ago when I lived in the snow belt in New York.  And on a back road alone, after dark, I found myself hanging upside down in my car which had turned turtle!  I had gone into a skid and hit a dry spot in the road in the middle of that skid.  That's when I learned that if you hit a dry spot in the middle of a skid, you'll flip your vehicle every time!  So on Thanksgiving Day I refused to leave the house even though someone offered to come get my husband and me.  (We were to go to a friend's house and they live way up on the mountain!)

Instead, I stayed home and wrote three humorous monologues and gathered the "fodder" for six more.  And when I get my mind on something like that, forget about doing anything else, even blogging!  I gave one skit at our Senior Citizen's monthly meeting today, and they really enjoyed it.

Suddenly it's a new week and I see it's my turn to have devotions at our local nursing home Wed. morning.  And we have another session in our Bible Study coming up Wed. afternoon.  (We skipped both those activities last week.)  Choir rehearses Wed. night and I need to practice my accompaniment!  So now that I'm getting back into the swing of things once again, I hope I'll get back to the blogging!  Oh, yes, my husband is taking me out to dinner tomorrow night!

Just wanted to touch base with everyone so you know I'm OK!  Talk to you later.
