I am so wiped out tonight!  I’ve had a busy Easter that began at 7:00am this morning!  I had the kids over for dinner, which minus Joel, Emma, and Drew,  makes 9 of us, although Elizabeth at 8 weeks now doesn’t count as she doesn’t eat much.  It still amazes me how different the landscape is of those I call family these days.

I had the huge traditional Easter dinner.  Normally it wouldn’t matter, but today, having just gotten back from all the travels I did for 11 days, it has taken a toll on me. I am screaming for the hot tub before I fall into bed.

This week begins a whole week of HUGE goals I have set for myself. Now that I have touched the plan God has for me, and truly believe it to be so, I need to begin the process of fulfilling that of which has been revealed to me. You will see me spending a LOT more time writing on the book.  I also am going to be in the process of redoing the trashed out rental, as I need it to be done so that I can re-rent it. More importantly tho, I have decided this is the week I am meeting with my Realtor and putting the property/rental houses back on the market.  I’m ready.  Do I know where I am going should it sell this time?  No.  I’m also not going to be looking. Too many times I found dream houses only to lose them. This time, it’s simply going on the market, if a buy comes along, then I will look believing God will lead me at the point!  Remember, in my life God is NEVER early, but He’s never late either! I still see the brown house in spirit that I’ve never been able to find.  I think if I sell, it will be there.  It’s all a plan, with perfect timing. I truly trust this!

I got lost on Facebook tonight taking those quizzes that supposedly describe you. The first one was, “What character are you from “Gone With The Wind?”  I am, “Melanie (Melle) Wilkes”.  You know, the sweet one who was married to Scarlett O’Hare’s dream man?  Scarlett was HORRIBLE to Melanie, and yet, Melanie remained loyal and true to Scarlett. Yup, that’d be me!  The next quiz was, “Who were you in a past life?”  This one I turned out to be “Mother Teresa” or the “Dali Lama.”  I was pretty surprised by that!  The final one I took was, “What famous Classic Movie Star are you?”  I was “Judy Garland”  the description states: You always have a smile on your face, but long in your heart to be loved by someone, even tho as Judy, you never know how much you are already loved.  Wow.  Don’t know how to comment on that one, other than it probably does describe me, or the part about longing to be loved.  Sometimes I get addicted to taking these quizzes. I think they do help you look deeper inside at who you really are.

And with that, knowing I have to be up at 5:30am to go back to work, I need to close and head to the hot tub.  A few moments of talking to God, thanking Him for so many things, and then I will fall into bed.  Tomorrow is a new day and with all these goals set for myself, I am seeing it as the first day of the rest of my life.

As the faith, love, and light lead me on.

Goodnight,

Sunshine

Goodnight Soul Mate:  Sometimes thoughts of you come rushing through my mind and I wonder if somewhere, perhaps you are thinking of me.  A lot of times when this happens, I am so busy doing something, when you just like come to my mind.  It’s so normal now I guess I’ve learned how much you are in my life and probably will be forever.  But not really in my life as the world knows it. For you are there, I am here, you are with her, I am with him………………and still, the heart rises to another place and time.  Is it a memory, or is it prophetic?  Perhaps a bit of both?  Or perhaps, a promise once made, forgotten, but revived the moment our paths so serendipitously crossed.  I send you love and light. I’m still so glad you found it in your heart to drop me a line last week.  The mystery of it all still lives………………..you silly man you!  J  Thanks for being so darn……………SPECIAL in such a mysterious way!  Goodnight,  Love, ~Sunshine

 In honor of my quiz, and being Judy Garland.............tonight's song, one of hopes and dreams of a better time and a better place..................but does it really exist?
