You know how I told you in my last post how I dislocated my ribs with the lopping shears – and they’ve popped back out again twice?  The pain has been sharp and strong.  And sometimes more dull.  It really is getting better.  But something’s slowing the healing process.

I keep tightening down.

After one of the nights where I didn’t sleep, I decided to go outside and work in the yard.  “Why on earth would you do that after no sleep?” you might ask.  Well, because I figured if I exercised more, I’d be more likely to fall asleep.  That’s usually the case.  And it was a beautiful day.

So out I went.

You heard in the 3 previous blog posts about how my friend Ruth and I had the opportunity to hear Sandi Patty at Carnegie Hall.  The fun we had in New York, and how great the concert was.  You also heard about how I didn’t sleep at all the night after the concert, and cancelled my trip to LA, where I was supposed to have a voice lesson.  How I was both disappointed, and experienced joy and blessing in the day when I was supposed to be in LA.

But that isn’t the end of the story.

You heard in Parts 1 and 2 about the wonderful opportunity I had to see Sandi Patty at Carnegie Hall in New York.  How Ruth and I got seats in the front row, even though we got to the theater later than we planned.  The fun we had walking through the city.  Unexpected opportunity and blessings.

A wonderful day.

In Part 1, you heard about the unexpected opportunity my friend Ruth and I had to see Sandi Patty at Carnegie Hall in New York.  Even though we bought the tickets about 2 weeks before the concert, they were General Admission, so we weren’t necessarily stuck with a seat at the very top of the hall.  We were already feeling blessed just to attend the concert.

And then this happened.

I just happened to be on Facebook when I saw it.  (’ve been spending less time there lately, so it was a bit unusual.)  A post about a concert at Carnegie Hall.  On Monday June 25^th.  An unexpected opportunity.

Only a few weeks away.
