On the Porch
Onisha Ellis
I’m not a big fan of numbers and counting, but it seems like I am doing a lot of that these days. Last month we spent 30 days at our home in North Carolina making lists and comparing prices to to do some needed restoration to our property. We have lots of information and numbers but not one project was completed.
Now we have been in Florida for 14 days and are making lists of a different kind. The dates (numbers) on my calendar are packed with appointments. Next week even has a double booked day and all of the appointments are out of town. My friends know I am not a movie fan and can’t remember the ones I have watched but this song from a 1960s movie stuck in my brain.
Substitute “I feel I never wanna go home” with I feel like it’s never gonna end and that sums up our first 14 days (numbers) of April. On a good note, in 10 more days (numbers AGAIN) the out of town appointments should be completed and we can do some exciting stuff like pressure wash our daughter’s home. I am looking forward to having more time with friends. Meanwhile, I have lots of reading time while sitting in waiting rooms.
Writing this has activated deep recesses in my brain. Does anyone remember the western television show whose hero had a business card that read:
Have Gun Will Travel
Wire Paladin
San Francisco
Mine is :
Have iPhone or iPad
Will read.
Florida or North Carolina
I was reading a post by Francis Frangipane this morning and he shared a wise verse.Good advice for someone who is spending a lot of time in waiting rooms.
Should you have a touch of nostalgia for the Paladin theme song, here is a link to You Tube. https://youtu.be/tgvxu8QY01s
