A wash

I was gone last week on business, and I expected to have the perfect environment to do some blogging. Used to be, all I needed was a quiet hotel room alone and I could write up a storm. Last week, not so much. For one thing, I was unbelievably tired and that was the most comfortable mattress I’ve slept on since the hubby’s old waterbed. Second, I was doing a lot of reading. Only made it down to the fitness center once, but I did work out that one time! That said, the day we all walked over to and all over one of the other buildings, I definitely got a workout particularly on the stairs.

Right now I am reading a book my best friend gave me about 10 years ago when our marriages were falling apart. Well, actually, she was going through a nasty divorce and I can’t remember if I had asked the hubby to leave yet or not. (He didn’t leave and we managed to work through our issues and have a much better marriage now than ever.) Anyway, this was the point in our lives (my best friend and I) that we put aside our “religious” differences (she’s Catholic and I’m Baptist, so you can imagine we had some major differences, which was why we stopped discussing “religion” while still in high school), and focused instead on what we agreed on. She sent me a Max Lucado book (No Wonder They Call Him The Savior) because she had been reading his books and loved them. Only I never finished it. Shame too, because it is a very easy book to read.

    Now is your chance. I’ve never regretted any time that I spent reading.

    I can never sit still long enough to read anything. I’ll wait for the movie. LOL 😛

    See, that just goes to show you how strong you are. you got through a shaky period in your marriage and made it better, and you remained best friends with someone of a different faith. Oh I didn’t have anything to comment about the book. Just sayin.
