I don’t want to let go of my cumulonimbus cloud!
I’d been forewarned of the tiredness to expect upon my return from my Christian Writer’s Conference this past week, but no one could have prepared me for the joyride to Cloud 9 and back.
Below are some of the highlights from the week:
- Newly-forged friendships and a renewed appreciation for existing ones were the greatest perks of the entire week.
- My prayer was for specific confirmation this week — and God gave it to me. First, directly through Poet Extraordinaire, Dr. Donn Taylor, and secondly, via my 3rd place award for the poem, “Soft Clover”! 🙂
- Awe-inspiring leadership, faculty, and key-note speakers.
- Yummy Java Chip Frappe Freezes at the Cloud Coffee Shop on site and delicious meals in the cafeteria.
- Nightly gatherings after the evening sessions.
More details on all of the above… after a two day nap!
So proud of you!!!
Thank you Vonda. The Lord has used you (as well as Edie) to make a tremendous difference in my life. I thank God for you both…often. 🙂
I miss you so much already! Wish we live closer! Absolutely blessed to have been able to spend time with you.
I feel exactly the same way, Lori. So thankful for our Brigade that at least keeps us connected in between conferences. Thank you for making this happen. 🙂
Outstanding! So glad you got to attend this. AND… congratz on the award for your poem! I'm sure great things are on the horizon for you! Press on!!
Thanks for the encouragement, Steve! Tell Angie the four of us are in need of a celebration dinner…at Cracker Barrel, of course! ha….
I understand the 2 day nap all too well…On Saturday, I got OUT of my pj's at 6:00 pm, when I went to a drive thru for supper for the family and went back home to put on new pj's! Then after church Sunday…an afternoon nap. I was worthless!
But the experience was worth everything.
