What Thoughts?

It has been a whole month since I posted on "Nonasthoughts"; where did this past month go? My Mother's husband, Joe, passed away on October 2; God was so merciful, his passing was peaceful and quick. My Mom has had a very difficult time remembering Joe is gone and that she no longer lives in her house. I had to have her declared legally incompetent and that was a paramount emotional cliff-hanger for me. Thank Heaven for Popa and his unwavering devotion to me, he has driven me up and back from Portland twenty-four times in the last thirteen weeks. We are tired emotionally and having to deal with lots of little details in seeing to the ongoing care of my Mom. There is her house to sell, her assets to be complied and her ongoing care at the assisted living to be provided for. In all of this, I can truthfully say "I know God has a plan" and I take great comfort in knowing HE is still in control. Life is not so much about what is happening around us as it is about our staying tuned in the ONE who controls the universe. I am so glad I am on a first name basis with HIM. My best advise for everyone is try Jesus, HE never fails. I hope to be able to blog a little more regularly but I am not making any promises. More when I can from a Nona with all to many thoughts!
