I think two weeks of battling illness from family member after another has finally caught up with me. Instead of staying up to do my normal blogging, I have been sleeping. No intentional bloggy breaks here at the moment, although that seems to be a popular choice for lent this year. Or for other reasons. Everyone seems healthy at the moment so hopefully all will be back to normal here, as well.
A couple of stories I stumbled across:
A post card sent from the trenches of World War I arrives 92 years later. She must not have missed that love letter too much, because the couple married after the war and the post card was delivered to their daughter.
This story is sort of depressing for America’s communities. If you can call them that. How can you be dead for a year and not have anyone notice? You would have thought at least the electric company would have noticed, but the television he was watching was still going.
Principled Discovery is a place to stop and discuss news and information related to faith, family and particularly education. Pour yourself a cup of tea and join the conversation! 
I read about the postcard the other day too - pretty amazing that it resurfaced so many years later!!
That’s really sad about that man! (Like you said, you’d think the electric company would have noticed. I know if we don’t pay our bills on time we are threatened with disconnection!) I can’t imagine being so alone that nobody would notice that I had died. That just breaks my heart.
Hi Dana, I feel like a stranger here in your blog - It has been awhile. Just glad to hear that all the sickies are doing fine!!!!!
