It’s Thanksgiving and it’s a good time to give thanks. To those who read this blog on a regular basis, I offer my heartfelt gratitude. And to those who tell others about it, thank you twice. I appreciate those who forward me interesting information, and who answer my questions.
Last month I was surprised by an unexpected call from a Delta Gamma friend. She wanted to congratulate me on being named as a recipient of the Delta Gamma Compass Award. It is given to a non-member of Delta Gamma Fraternity who, “through his/her extraordinary leadership and service, has made a lasting and deeply significant contribution to the Fraternity and/or the interfraternal movement.” I was floored to say the least, but oh so very grateful. Thank you Delta Gamma!
I am not at home and I haven’t been since early October. Save for a 48 hour trip to Massachusetts for a family wedding, I’ve been in Florida with my father, who is recovering from surgery.
I try to write posts, but my mind is scattered and my spare time is limited. I’m not sleeping well and in the wee small hours this morning I became lost in a new-to-me blog about a San Diego couple who moved with their family to a small Indiana town. They live in a nearly century old Masonic Temple building. They are turning it into a home and possibly a business. It is fascinating. As I was reading the posts, something caught my eye. It was a newspaper the owners found in their library room and it was from the city where I have been since early October. More proof that we are all connected!
Happy Thanksgiving friends!
