Took another trip down memory lane this morning on the drive back home … This time the courtesy of The Cult’s Sanctuary and Wild Flower … Wild is right! Wild & crazy memories! Just love how powerful music can be … xoxo

**********************************

I have a very important appointment at 1:30 today. I get to be treated to tea by the amazing dude I get to call my son and his awesome classmates! xoxo

Greeted at the door, taken to a seat, served a beverage and food and then entertained with poetry from each child! YAY!!!!

“Why would someone sell something that doesn’t work just to make money?” -Thomas … In a book he’s reading right now (Johnny Swanson), one of the characters discovered a cure for heartburn and began to sell it. His family needed the money. We were talking about it and then Thomas turned the conversation to the above statement … he wasn’t really asking me a question, just making a statement. He keeps me smiling …

Homemade sweet tater fries!!! Thank you Aunt Debbie for the fresh sweet taters straight from Glen Dykes’ garden in Eagle Lake, Mississippi!!! No kiddin y’all … When Aunt Debbie comes for a visit her suitcase is full of food, instead of clothes!!! YUM!!!!!!

See this Vise Grip thingy? Works perfect to turn a broken bath tub handle on and off!! Much much much better then when I was sticking the broken piece back in and struggling to get it to turn. That completely quit working yesterday so it was time to find a different fix! I’m so HappY!! The cold water for the bathtub turns on and off effortlessly now!! WoooHooooo!

Thank you to Brian Benson (G. Brian Benson) for such an amazing endorsement of my book! A comment from Brian a few days before the garage purging that led to the creation of this book re-ignited my drive to write a book. Blessed and grateful to have you as a friend Brian!! “Camilla’s light shines very bright in “D iz for Different – One Woman’s Journey to Acceptance”. She offers a wonderful combination of heart, intelligence, drive and a true inner desire to help families who are going through the trials, tribulations and loving moments of having a child with special needs. By authentically sharing her own story, hers is a voice of compassion, support and guidance.” -G. Brian Benson – Award-winning author and advocate of inspiration.
