GREAT NEWS!!!!

Okay, enough running around for a while!! I made it through my appt today without coughing during the test which was pretty much a God thing because I'm coughing a lot!! I haven't felt this miserable in a while...it has wiped me out! I will plan on going back to work tomorrow and try to function...hopefully, I'll be feeling better!
In the area of GREAT NEWS, though, Greg and Megan's house sale closed today with no problems!!!!! He will put in his notice tomorrow and see how long they want him to work and start making plans to get to Iowa!!! HOORAY!!! And thanks to everyone of you for your prayers!!

Thought for the day

Enjoy your health!!!

Change of Pace

I had a change of pace today. I went to Omaha this morning for a dr appt, made a stop at Target, then came back through Logan and went to lunch with Tabbi. I really like going to lunch, and I don't get many chances to do that with one of my daughters. Kelli, we need to figure out how to do that sometime. Megan, you get a turn too! I went to work this afternoon after getting back to town.

Keep praying for Megan and Greg's house sale to close without any problems. The closing date should be March 17. Already this weekend the moving truck will load up their house and should arrive in Iowa about a week later. Greg will be able to stay with their wonderful neighbors next door after losing his furniture.

Thought for the day

God knows and is faithful. Every delay, every bump in the road, every obstacle in our path comes to us ONLY after passing through Him and holds the promise of our best well being as we trust Him, surrender to His care, and obey Him. He understands our immediate concern, the panicked prayer, the fear that enters in, but He calls us to look it squarely in the eye and declare that He is our provider, protector, and keeper and we will trust Him. And we will trust Him!

Keep Praying

This is Tre and Tru in front of a truck in the car show at Applefest on Saturday.

We had a very nice weekend. After going to Applefest with Tabbi and boys on Saturday I brought Tre and Tru to our house and they stayed overnight. There was lots of playing outside and they got motorcycle rides in the evening. We all went to church this morning and Tabbi came to get them later in the morning leaving around 12:30? The weather has been warm and sunny, nights down in the upper 50's. It's been a beautiful beginning to fall and I hope we get to enjoy it for a long time.

It's hard to wait for the things that we want and really hard to wait for the things we need---like house sales and healing bodies. Please keep Greg and Megan in your prayers. The house really needs to sell so they can at least get into their own apartment. It's really tough not to have any of your own space and it's been two months already with no definite end date in sight. There is no really way to change it, and we keep talking about how it will be better soon, but some days that's not much help.

In the meantime, we'll all keep doing whatever we can to encourage and support them. One of the good things about being close to these situations is it gives you a more sympathetic heart for other people and their situations. Lots of people are facing troubles; let's pay attention and pitch in where we can.

Thought for the day

Thank You, Lord, for the many ways that You bless us and take care of us. We have so much; even in the difficult situations we have more than most of the world does, and we too often forget to even thank You. So thank You, thank You, thank You. Help me to remember how much I have and share it all with those you put into my life. Help me to trust that the people in my path are put there by you and treat them with the respect and consideration they deserve.
