Day 13: I'm halfway home...

Today is the halfway point of this detox.  I have one more day of the smoothies, bug soup, and Purple Heaven, not to mention Hockey Pucks.  Then Phase 3 starts.  It's two days (I was thinking it was three) of nothing but WATERMELON!!!  I love watermelon.  However, after two days of nothing but, we will see if that statement will hold water...(can I get a rim shot?)

Today was also day one of 1 1/2 months alone at the front counter.  It went pretty good.  Not too many people came today.  Had a couple of rushes and lots of dead time.  Apparently, I did not need to worry about the stress today, but boredom.  I know, I know.  I need to learn the lesson that Paul had learned.  To be content no matter my circumstances.  I am trying.

I didn't get over to see my dad tonight.  My sister texted me that he was out of NICU and into a regular room.  He got to walk a little today and eat solid foods.  He is progressing nicely.  I'll be going to see him in the morning.  Tonight, I went up to the folks' house to spend a little time with my niece and nephew.  I always enjoy spending time with them and we had some good laughs.  They seem to have come around to my silly accents.  I told them the story of Rindercella in an Emily Littella voice.  All in all, it was a nice start to the Sabbath.

I'm pretty tired tonight.  I seem to start really fading once it hits 10pm.  So, I will put paid to this missive and call it a night.

Sweet slumber and dreams to all.  May you find rest and peace in the arms of our gracious Heavenly Daddy and wake up refreshed tomorrow.  Happy Sabbath!

Tally ho!
