It's just not a blogginday, ya know? All day I've tried to carve out a piece of time and energy to get my thoughts down, but that time and energy has gone to other things...some important, some urgent, some random. But that's one of the nice things about blogging...it waits when other things won't.

I've got several posts brewing in my head that may make it onto the screen next week...we'll see. One about food, one about a new Bible memory resource, a book review or two, some thoughts about "parenting" young adults. Stay tuned.

Those of you who have kept up with the story of my living with the complications of hip replacements might be interested to know that my surgeon wants to see me Monday to discuss a plan for operating. I don't know yet what he's got in mind--whether he wants to try the less invasive strut graft that he talked about in the spring and then backed out of, or whether he's thinking it's time to start over with a whole new hip. Either way, this is going to impact (and yes, I still cringe in using impact as a verb, just as I cringe at the new acceptability of ending sentences with prepositions) my fall activities and my family's schedules, schooling, meals, etc. However, God apparently doesn't think I've learned enough about giving up control, and so He's registering me for yet another lab. Maybe I'll pass this one with a bit more grace.
