Better than average...

I miss my digital camera.

Sometimes, I forget that my little Nikon is gone.

Many times throughout the day I find myself reaching for it to snap surprise photos of children, bugs, and roses. Then I remember, "Oh yeah, the thieves came and took it in the night." Nasty little cretins!

My friend Annie came to visit me early this last week. She brought me new scissors to replace those that had been stolen. I used the fabric scissors this morning and wouldn't you know, those scissors cut as though they were cutting through butter. Smooooooth cutting!

I have been blessed to have better than average friendships, better than average friends, better than average everything, come to think of it. (With the possible exception of the crooks who stole my stuff...they were definately garden variety criminals!)

So, I count myself fortunate indeed that it was my Nikon and not the life of my child that was taken. I count myself fortunate that I have sisters of the spirit to bless my life, to love me even in my brokenness.

I said it in my last blog entry and I'll say it again!

Life is good!

Waaaay better than average!
