Out of Order

I have been away all week at DaimlerChrysler for a supplier seminar. It has been a grueling week with 2 hour drives through Detroit traffic every day. What made it special was the freezing rain yesterday morning. It sounds like I am complaining and I guess that I am but I wanted to explain my four day blank spot.

It is amazing how much time you spend thinking while you are driving. I can't say that I though about anything profound. My first two days were spent thinking about the Megamillions lottery and what I would do with $267 million dollars. Well, not quite that much after taxes but still a nice chunk of cash when its all said and done. Nothing profound came out of those thoughts either. I cannot think what I would do with that much money. It just doesn't compute.

The other two days were filled with thoughts of my mother-in-law moving from her home of 35 years. She has been packing for about two months and the moving van came and picked up her stuff yesterday. She is having an auction for the stuff that she does not or cannot move on Saturday. I will be out at her old house tonight helping to set up the auction. It should be fun tomorrow looking at all of the stuff people are buying or not buying. It will be sad to watch someone's life reduced to an auctioneer pounding a gavel and saying sold to a life time of memories.

So pray for us for tomorrow and remember that memories are what we get from a life time of caring and sharing with others.
