I'm really looking forward to the upcoming weekend, hectic though it is shaping up to be. Tomorrow early we're driving to MD, hopefully arriving around noon. Dinner with my aunt, at whose house we spent every Thanksgiving when I was growing up, and my uncle (her brother; they're my late mom's only siblings). I'm wondering how many of my cousins will be there, too. It will be my first Thanksgiving dinner with them in about 30 years.
Back to OH on Saturday, in time to celebrate the feast of Christ, the King on Sunday. It is about our highest "ordinary" feast day, a celebration not quite on the level of Christmas and Easter, but still a really joyful end to the church year; the new one starts with the season of Advent.
Monday it'll be back in the car to head to Rochester, NY, for a three or four day consultation concerning some tools we're considering. We'll see how that goes.
So much to give thanks for, but chiefly I'm appreciating the blessings of God's love, particularly as poured out through family and dear friends.
