Adoption Day -84
We played Phase 10 tonight. Phase 10 is a card game that all 6 of us would play. Jessica and Erika liked playing the game and brought it with them when they came into our family. Tonight, we played without them. We talked about Jessica and Erika in a good way, for the first time since they were taken away. It was nice and it made me feel pretty good. For a short time tonight, as a family, we stopped pretending they don’t exist. I haven’t felt this good in a while. I want to thank Brenda, Holly and Mitch for letting this happen. I still miss Jessica and Erika, and always will. I continue to ask God for a miracle – that He brings them back to our family.
I have my second guitar effect nearly finished. I built a blues-type distortion pedal called a Blues Breaker. It’s supposed to be a clone of a Marshall pedal. I don’t have quite the correct pots on it right now, but it does sound OK.
It’s starting to get warmer out. I heard we may be in the 60s in the next week. When I get some free time and it’s warm out, there are a couple car repairs I need to take care of. The driver’s door doesn’t open from the inside and there are issues with the blinkers. The switch in the steering column is bad and I need to mess with the turn signal to get the blinkers to flash.
