Weekend Away, Just What We Needed
Sorry about the lack of posts over the weekend but we were having a great time up north with new friends. The only pictures we took are on my film camera so only words today. They are great people. Incredibly easy. They took a whole weekend and cared for us well. They let us yak … Continue reading
Conversation
Yesterday, commenting on the post with the quote from Spurgeon, Kathy asked “based on Mark 11:22-26 Will we be given that which we have prayed for and truly expect ?” The passage she cites is as follows: And Jesus answered saying to them, “Have faith in God.

Okay, Then How About Some Warm Rain?
I can’t plant my corn. I could have the week I was in California and it was what, ninety degrees here. But I refuse to go back and trade in that wonderful trip and time deepening a good friendship with Sheila, Carol and my own girls just for some corn. But come on! It is … Continue reading
Richard Foster’s Celebration of Discipline
I was excited to hear Steve say last week that he enjoyed the first chapter of Celebration of Discipline and did not think Richard Foster a crack pot, or something to that effect.

But please, allow me some redundancies. The first day included a trip to Hulda Klager’s lilac gardens in Woodland, … Continue reading
Absence

Choice? I miss my husband more than I want to blog about missing my husband. I promise … Continue reading
Ducky Daddles Arrive
The ducklings arrived at 8am finally! They must have taken the scenic tour, an extra twenty-four hours to get their little ducky daddles up here. They should have flown. They are all fuzzy and warm in their brooder box tonight. I’m sorta tired from getting ready to leave to take Carol down to California. We … Continue reading
Good Read With Good Friends
Last night our good friends, Steve and Sheila, had us over for a lovely pork chop dinner. Sheila made this really great brown rice with dried fruit and nuts. They have us over every Tuesday for dinner and I gotta say it is great not having to worry about dinner at all for one day! … Continue reading
