What a precious dog and beautiful surroundings! This dog with all its hair would take a lot of brushing and grooming but well worth it I suppose!

I have to visit the eye doctor today. I’ve had my check-up already but have decided to get new frames, plus the lenses. Both of those costs an arm and a leg but its been a while since I had new frames. I saw some when I was there for my eye exam and hope I can find them again. I told the girl out there that situation and she said she would help me find them. (she thinks she remembers the ones I was looking at) The doctor will have to do the measurements, etc. and it will probably be a week before they will be finished but I’ve put it off long enough. Its just one of those things I put off but I do need to see a little better and that part has already been done.

So I guess I’ll be getting ready to go pretty soon!
See ya’ll later! Have a great day!

this can not be thought on for too long

“Where would we be today without the constant unfailing companionship of His faithful presence, wise and perfect guidance, merciful patience, comfort, and transforming reproof? What would we do without Him? I can’t even imagine!

Lord, help us not to focus on fleeting treasures but on
You, our most precious treasure. Teach us the joy
of reveling in You and Your loving presence
and provision in our lives.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

God is good let us thank Him for His love, mercy, kindness, healing, protection, goodness, compassion, etc., in Jesus name, amen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Of all that is precious, Jesus tops the list.”

Amy we understand. Life gets in the way.
We are in a huge battle here in NY so my time has been focused here plus my business is struggling with this disastrous economy.

I am going to have to hit the road for face to face visits in to fracking and drilling areas. Something has to change soon, real soon.

Good evening, Gail.
That puppy is adorable!!

We had a chow that loved the water.
When she was a pup, she always splashed her water all over the floor.

We bought her a child's wading pool and she loved it.
I'm sure Libby will love a wading pool.

Hope you had a great WF Wednesday.

Good evening, LTOS.
Having house pets can do a number on clothes.
Our only house pet is Mr Mittens.
He was an outdoor cat but now he thinks he belongs inside.
Jr brings his cat, Sissy, when he visits.
She is a house cat but when she is here, she wants to be outside.
Jr's house cat becomes an outdoor cat and our outdoor cat becomes a house cat. :)

Hope all is well with you.

Hugs back atcha.

Miss Amy.. you are not able to get her much. And I am a hudred times worse.

Think of you, Missy and Mr.Just so very often. AND foldy I might add

I post my new thread on THE PORCH the first of the month and ALWAYS think of this thread.

My posting here is more than sorry. I know I miss a lot. I am still in OKC for winter. As I have no heat or power in the home in OHIO, I am being a fair weather commiter.home owner (well once I EVER do the probate).... to go when I know I wont have to be overly cold to work during the day & TRY to sleep at night

I think of you all so often and so fondly. Life has been powerfully strong and painful for many of my friends... losing lifemates, children, parents, limbs(diabetes), and so much more. I trust you will all trust He who gives you life and love..

My pups are doing well but I have found many ticks on Toby and need to start again the flea/tick applications. Molly the cat is being watched and loved by gal pal Karen in Ohio while I am in Oklahoma. This cat will NOT want to come home with me. Defining spoiled in a new way (.. yes, even a cat whisperer consultant/psychic).. tuna and crab (no not the cheap canned stuff... the real thing) ... her own room with TV, music, special beds, toys, catnip, massages from a cat masseur ( I KID YOU NOT). at my home she gets a bowl of dry food and promises of “maybe”.

The difference - all it takes is money

well, I do hope you are all coping with life’s challenges and opportunities. Sometimes hard but always growth in the process.

til next time

A Plea For Prayer

May 2, 2013

A missionary recently visited the Bible study I was attending. She described what it had been like to pack up her household, part with friends, and relocate to a distant country. When she and her family arrived, they were greeted with a flourishing drug-trade and hazardous roadways. The language barrier brought on bouts of loneliness. They contracted four different stomach viruses. And her oldest daughter narrowly escaped death after falling through a railing on an unsafe stairwell. They needed prayer.

The apostle Paul experienced danger and hardship as a missionary. He was imprisoned, shipwrecked, and beaten. It’s no surprise that his letters contained pleas for prayer. He asked the believers in Thessalonica to pray for success in spreading the gospel—that God’s Word would “run swiftly and be glorified” (2 Thess. 3:1) and that God would deliver him from “unreasonable and wicked men” (v.2). Paul knew he would need to “open [his] mouth boldly” and declare the gospel (Eph. 6:19), which was yet another prayer request.

Do you know people who need supernatural help as they spread the good news of Christ? Remember Paul’s appeal, “Brethren, pray for us” (2 Thess. 3:1), and intercede for them before the throne of our powerful God.

Commit to pray and intercede—
The battle’s strong and great’s the need;
And this one truth can’t be ignored:
Our only help comes from the Lord. —Sper
Intercede for others in prayer; God’s throne is always accessible.

Read: 2 Thessalonians 3:1-5

Brethren, pray for us. —2 Thessalonians 3:1
Bible in a Year:
1 Kings 12-13; Luke 22:1-20
