Experiences pt.2

I'm an airhead....I completely forgot until now that one of the new experiences I had last week was starting the arrangements for James' headstone. A dear woman from our church happens to be a very talented stone artist. She has agreed to do James' headstone for us.

So, we headed to London to pick up our new trailer, and phoned her while we were there to see if she could squeeze us into her day- we already had an appointment set for me to meet with her in Wingham the next week, but that would be by myself, and Brian was with me that day.

She said "Sure", so off we went. Sans trailer...the guys at the dealership were still doing their thing.

I thought I was ready.

I was not.

Let me simply say that I sincerely hope no one on the earth ever has to do the same thing again before Christ redeems His people.

On the plus side, Cheryl is awesome. And James' stone, I'm sure, will be an awesome testament to his life and who he was.

On the negative side- emotionally and financially- headstones are priced up there along with diamonds, platinum, and uranium. Nice headstones go up from there.
