LOL - You sure you're not in Texas?
p.s - Allen West won the Rep runoff in Florida tonight!
Just finished my night shift. Sure is late for me to be up.
In 1960, everyone in the high school I attended participated in Project TALENT. For several days, we took tests that surveyed our aptitudes in academic subjects. In addition, we were asked to express our plans, hopes, and dreams for the future. What we didn’t know was that we were among 400,000 participants from 1,300 schools in the largest study of high school students ever conducted in the US. None of us involved in the study could have imagined how our lives would turn out.
The same was true for Saul of Tarsus. As a young man, his goal was to destroy the followers of Jesus (Acts 7:58–8:3; Gal. 1:13). But after his conversion, he became the apostle Paul, whose mission was to multiply them. As he journeyed to Jerusalem, facing prison and hardship, Paul said, “I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace” (Acts 20:24 niv).
When our goal is to honor the Lord, He guides and guards us each step of the way. Whatever our hopes and dreams may be, when we place them in God’s hands we know that everything, including setback or success, is under His control.
Read: Acts 20:16-24
Boy! It sure is late for you! I had to rub my eyes to read that it was still nighttime! :)
Nite! See ya in the morning! Hope work went well! (((hugs)))
Good evening, Perceptive Person...how are your monsoons doing this season?
Piper ready for school to start?
Good almost morning, Arrowhead...((HUGS))...everything locked that was supposed to be?
Any surprises yet?
Yup, lost all power at the main marina tonight. Had to call the facility guy and ask where the main breaker is located. No luck getting power back on, so they will work on it tomorrow.
You just made my evening!!!
Just before I shut down at work I read a bit about undelivered ballots in Florida. Haven't had time to go back and read more since I got home.
YIPPEE!!!
Not nearly as hot here, but I get tired of shoes and socks all day.
ALL power? I guess that IS a pretty big surprise. Are there folks at the marina 24/7?
Good morning, Mayor...thanks for today’s sustenance for body and soul. ((HUGS))
Boy, has the school year changed since we were there...
Piper started school last week. She was very ready for it to start. She has many of the same kids in her class this year. And she likes her teacher, so far.
The monsoon has been better than many recent years, but we’re still in a drought condition. We’ll need several 12”-15” years before they’ll say it’s over.
Thank you!
Late but never forgotten!
Amazing how they come up with our characters...
Ah well, some of us are indeed more curious than others.
And with that, I bid you bon nuit. Tomorrow comes early, yes?
School starts at the beginning of August?? Is she in year round school where every few months they get time off?
Are your river rocks staying put?
d:o) Rest well.
((HUGS))Good morning, Kathy. How's it going?
((HUGS))Good morning, LUV W. How’s it going?

You are an extremely perceptive person. You are always paying attention to those little details.
You like to sit back and watch. It’s amazing to watch other people in action.
You can be a bit sneaky and sly at times. You like to eavesdrop and spy.
You know a lot about everyone, and as a result, you always have some thought-provoking observations to make!
