I'm getting ready for a week-long trip (driving alone) to visit my mom in Arizona. (Yes, that's right - it's way too hot out here in California, so I'm going to spend a week in Phoenix.  ) Anyway, I've decided to make it kind of a "mini retreat" and stay off the Internet (as much as possible) while I'm in transit. Some of the polemics here have been getting to me, so it's time for a break! Please pray for me, that I'll have a safe journey to and from my mom's house, and a pleasant visit with her. Thanks, and see you in a week!

Thanks everyone - I'm back safely! The visit with Mom, however, did NOT go so well - next time I will make sure to have my husband with me as my "buffer zone"!
