I've been "journaling" for decades; I've written numerous articles; I've self-published two books. Writing a blog will be new to me. I'm always eager for a new learning experience.
My e-mail address:
For some strange reason the e-mail link at the bottom of each "blog" does not work. Consequently, I encourage you to write down & e-mail me at LorraineEEdwards@gmail.com.
Since mid-November 2010 I have been a volunteer with Wycliffe Associates (WA) in Orlando, FL. WA is a valuable support team for Wycliffe Bible Translators. I'm able to donate computer skills, phone-call techniques, and clerical expertise to this Christian organization. I'm richly blessed by this opportunity to serve God at Wycliffe.
Enjoying a festive Red Hat Society event (that's me on the left).

Shelby, NC, May 2007; "little old lady" with Gordon & Sue (Edwards) Fox. (Frankly, I'm not that "little"; they "upstaged" me!!)
In addition to the RV, another faithful old friend.
The not-so-fancy computer station where I documented the books Frantz Families--Kith & Kin, LaVerne Evergreen Cemetery Tombstone Inscriptions, & numerous articles. ~~~~ Also my battered (and previously neglected, rescued from the trash) Cabbage Patch doll.
Just a portion of my vast family history library.

If you have been following my blog, you know that I am recovering from acute ozone poisoning. I'm delighted to report that I am healthy again. I lack strength and energy but that might be attributed to "old age"?! Both should return when we eventually get beyond our unseasonably wet Spring. I look forward to long walks!! With 20/20 hindsight, I recognize that I could have used the treadmill at the Senior Center. However, during recovery I haven't wanted to be in a social setting.
I have no breathing problems. As far as I can determine, I have no allergies. I don't suffer when the gardener mows the three-plus acres of lawn at this apartment complex. No sneezing, no itchy eyes....
Not surprising, perhaps, the stress of the severe illness recently triggered Shingles!! All-in-all, I've suffered a miserable eight months!!
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:28-29, 31 KJV
