bishoping business (7/2019)

Dave was asked to be bishop...and, quite honestly, there are no words to describe the immediate and unexpected disruption it has been to our norm. His first Sunday was also mother's day and he surprised me with a hammock. Ironically, the hammock quickly became our private place to talk, cry, and sometimes argue about bishoping business. This view...

...along with crying in my closet, counseling coupled with an antidepressant, and cycling on Sundays became my coping mechanisms.
