Soon to be reunited, again!


St. Louis, MO Temple 2006

Just had to say: I'm excited that DAVE is coming home on Thursday! He has been working out of state for the winter, and it has been lonely here. He has a one way ticket HOME! I will pick him up from the airport in less that 48 hours (who's counting?). There is always something to be learned from our experiences, and I believe I have learned to appreciate Dave more. There are so many things I miss about him. He makes me laugh....I miss that. He has really good insights into life and what is going on....I miss hearing those spontaneously. He is FUN and helpful....I miss that. His perfect sense of direction when we travel....I miss that. He has a great perspective on life (to me it is like sunshine...that essential to daily life)....I really MISS that!

This has been quite the experience, with him working out of state for so long. Life just seems very FLAT without Dave. Kind of like the spice is gone. So, I am looking forward to the JOY of having him back home. And I hope I remember to appreciate him more!!!



Bigler Time...even tho Tara & Jon are not here

Yesterday I went to the Ojai Ward for Sacrament meeting...because Jon's little brother, Clark Bigler gave his homecoming talk...just got home from his mission from Chile the week before. He did an excellent job on his talk. Very inspiring and insightful. I thought he was a 'mini Bert' (his Dad) when he spoke. He is truly a leader and just a great guy! I was impressed. I had fun visiting with the Kris, her sister, and the Bigler boys etc. after church. I also got to meet David's fiancee,.

Tonight the Bigler's were having a B'day bar-b-que (another grandchilds b'day) at the park right next to us....she invited me to come by for dinner.....I did and had fun visiting with Kris and Clark mostly. I always feel so comfortable with Kris....she is a good friend/relative.

Afterwards, I went to my Mom's house to hang out with Mom and my sisters...Debbie & Joyce. We had fun watching the Bachelor on TV and then visiting. Debbie made her famous cooked sugar free chocolate pudding with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream in the bowl of pudding....the contrast between the hot and cold, creamy vanilla & chocolate....yummy! Anyway, that was my evening after work. I was going to do errands, but instead I had FUN! Errands can be another day....
