Morning Blessings

I have the morning all to myself.   Didn't have to hop out of bed early and head out to get the grandbabies off to school.  Plus, my Tomer has meetings after his morning bus run, which means he won't be coming home.  Ahhh...What to do?  Not much, since I cleaned this place yesterday.  I am, enjoying my coffee and catching up on a few shows...Oh, and of course reading my Bible and some prayer time.  God is so amazingly good!  No, life isnt perfect...we all have trials and sadness but with His leading...Well, I will...Yes, we will...Have victory over them all!   My life is blessed...I love you all.

By His Wounds - Glory Revealed

A Time Of Praise

It has been a glorious few days here and I now proclaim..."I am so ready for Spring!"  Although, things are looking rather bare and ugly at the moment.  There will come a time, when God once again brings life to this place...when the Tulips, Daffodils, Hyacinths and Cherry Blossoms will brighten the dreary canvas of our yard and we will, as always marvel at God's handiwork.
Spring...a time of new birth.  A time to praise God for His blessings and marvel at His love for us...He gave His only Son, Jesus...so that I would have Eternal Life...A new Birth in Him.

Missing Daddy

Ten years without Daddy...seems so long since I have seen his precious face and heard his sweet voice.  But in my heart, he is here...always. Singing, whistling, telling others just how much God loves them. Working...always busy, loving the outdoors...mowing grass, watering the garden at 4 a.m.  And LOVE, that word is my Daddy.  I will miss him my whole life long...But how blessed, I am to know, that I will spend eternity with my Daddy and Jesus.

HAPPY ST. PADDY'S DAY

The Hope Of Spring

We are expecting another Winter Storm tomorrow, it could bring us another 8" of snow.  With the hope of Spring in sight...I will not complain.  Today, was a lovely 56', but tomorrow will send us searching for our boots and heavy coats...again.  This is Michigan...it is not called the Mitten just for it's shape, we need to wear them too.  LOL.  Here, most of us take it in stride...life is good...God is great....I am blessed.  Oh, and our sweet Elek is spending the night.

Waiting, Waiting And Waiting Some More

This morning, I decided to head out to the Mart to pick up a gallon of paint, after finally choosing a color from the swatches that I brought home last week.  Tomer has all walls patched and primed ...Yippee!

What I expected to be a quick trip...had me gone for almost two hours!  I first, picked up a couple of items that I needed and made my way to the paint department...not a soul in sight.  Okay...so I strolled the aisles looking for someone.  Hallelujah, I finally find someone and she kindly called for help.  Soon, a nice man from another department comes to my rescue.
I hand him my chosen sample and he grabs the light base off the shelf and as he types in the formula... the machine says that it must be purged first.  Okay,  he cleans it and empties the valves...it is now purged. Onward we go, or so we thought...now the machine is telling him that some of the tints are low.  Sigh...As he starts checking out the tints, he discovers that every single one of the tints are about empty.  Poor guy is apologizing but it is surely not his fault.  He says that this is supposed to be done... every night.  Hmmm...someone hasn't done their job.
To make a long story short...I stood there, well over an hour... for one gallon of paint!  When I was finally handed my paint...He thanked me for my patience and apologized once again.  And in return, I thanked him for being such a conscientious worker and doing a great job.
We, he and I... could have murmured and complained but instead, we chatted and laughed and made the most of a bad situation.  Thank you Lord. ...I got my paint and Tomer has been informed that school is cancelled for tomorrow, that will give him the whole day to maybe finish up.
The bathroom re-do continues...
