Had to share the good news...
The timeline of the last 5 days:
9-10 Charlie is taken from us.
9-11 to 13 The horror it all sinks in
9-14 My husband, who had significant religious trauma in his youth, and insisted throughout our marriage that church goers were a bunch of hypocrites, remarked over coffee Sunday morning "maybe we should start going to church, I want to be on the side of good, not this evil we are seeing".
9-15 am: I showed him the video if the young man and his suit (the one mock shared this am) and he said,"I can relate to that."
9-15 pm: I came home from work and he showed me the daily Bible app he had downloaded.
27 years together and I feel like our lives are about to take a serious turn toward God.
Thank you Charlie.
Daisy and I are back home after an absolutely amazing week in Costa Rica with some of our new besties! We are already thinking about where we might travel with y'all in 2025. Hawaii, anyone? :D
Anyway, thanks to Insider Donna Birch and her photo/video montage skills, we wanted to share one of our favorite days from the whole trip - the sunset catamaran cruise. BEST DAY EVER!
See y'all at 8am ET on Monday, January 8th during the morning livestream!
I apologize ahead of time, this is a bit of a long post. Having one of those days not helped by finding out I lost “friends” on Facebook. It’s not many, but it’s enough when I didn’t have many to start with. I know, I know, “then clearly they weren’t friends”. The one that hurt is the guy I had been friends with since I was in high school, I am 47 for reference. I knew it was coming and, frankly, I’m surprised it didn’t happen sooner and there weren’t more. Back in 2014, when I started following COTR and reposting things he had gotten mad at me for being “mean”. He said it wasn’t the person he knew it high school. I was torn, between not being “mean” (a word I’ve come to realize means “silent”) and saying what I know. Before the elections last year, while watching the termoil and vitriol, I decided to stop being “mean” and start spreading word. It started with the assassination attempt on Trump. It was never much, but it was enough....
