Dear Elba,
It’s time for me to post an entry. Instead of writing you I’ve been spending a lot of time with you. Since returning from Prague I’ve been with you every week. I’ve learned a lot of useful information about the Coffee County Seat.

I know where the coldest Cokes in town are sold (Lawford’s Hardware) and that no matter how much I like Mexican food, it is possible for me to tire of cheese enchiladas. On Sunday afternoons one can buy collards on Hwy. 84 near the Dorsey truck building. Enterprise is only about 22 minutes from Elba and the New Brockton post office keeps regular hours on Wednesday. Oh, and I should never get up to read scripture without a tissue in hand.

Last week Charlotte helped put up the Christmas tree in the Coffee House. It makes me smile when I drive by it at the end of the day. It’s hard to believe today is December 1.

I got an email from our Global Health Action representative on Friday. She sent the supply list for our birthing kits. Mary Gray and I are working on a plan to start putting kits together. Your help is needed. I’ll send details soon.

Tomorrow marks the beginning of Advent. It’s going to be a great month.

See you at the collard stand,
Suzanah

PS
I bought two bunches last Sunday and got four packs out of them.
