Day 21

Today Sis and I became a part of “the Ridge Christian Fellowship”. God has led us here. Despite appearances to the contrary, we’ve always been consummate outsiders. We’ve never been “joiners”. We’ve always gone our own way. We’ve never seen ourselves as “fitting in”, but today ... we fit in. We are so welcomed. These people are so open and embracing. Peter and Kathy pastor the church and they have made us feel immediately like a part of things. I’m so thankful.

Tonight we got together with our closest and oldest friends Russ and Tori. We practically grew up together. They are family to us. Tori, being the fine southern girl she is, cooked a fabulous meal. Sis ate it all like she’d never had a decent meal before, or ever would again. The only thing missing was a coke in the little bottle, which was the only concession made to my “dirt” diet. Thanks guys ... next time’s on us ... mud pies anyone?
