HELLO EVERYONE ~ well, we've had a very eventful week, to say the least (so I have been absent for a few days) ...
TUESDAY ~ our hot water tank broke (or so we thought); after blowing several fuses, it's off to town to search for new elements; well, that's a job and a half; drain all the water and make a tool to clean out about a foot of sand on the bottom of the tank. So in they go; but it' s a no-go; still not working. DH was very upset; called uncle; he said to check the fuse box again; and sure enuff, the main fuse box was broken; so had to call an electrician ...
WEDNESDAY ~ wind and rainstorm knocks out our hydro, so we end up going to town for dinner, but thankfully, by 8 pm it was back on. Exhausted ... drop into to bed early after an evening walk.
THURSDAY ~ electician can't come til today, but I had to go to the emerg at the hospital as my leg is swelling, and throbbing from a scrape I did on my PC desk; got some antibiotics and cream to help it heal; that took all day; still no electrician. Oh well, maybe he'll show tomorrow,or sometime on the weekend, so DH can have a shower; my uncle told me to tell DH I can just hose him down, if he wants ~ LOL! I'm sure he'd luv the idea; hehe!
ANYWAYS, my life likes to take many curves; got my small bird feeder up; and the birdies are very happy. We had lovely sunshine for most of the day, even if it was tiring. I was able to get in some walking five days in a row; I like the evening esp, cuz it's cool and the stars are beautiful at this time of year here.
It is our THANKGIVING this long weekend; we are having a small turkey with pumpkin pie at home this year for a change. Our car is still running for us. Well, I hope that is all the excitement we'll have for a while; I want some peace; sure hope the hot water is on before then. I have been getting my walking in for the last five days in the evening.
SUE ~ Luv that poem; so nice.
WILMA ~ glad you had such a great holiday.
SHY ~ On nights that I can't sleep, I do come here and read; or I read the Psalms (in the bible); have a nice, hot cup of tea, and that helps me want to sleep. Sometimes a walk in the cool evening air helps me too.
MOM ~ you have your hands full; maybe a new school will be better.
KIM ~ you can just call me ROSEBUD, as it's shorter ...
HELLO TO EVERYONE ELSE; glad things are going well for each and everyone of you; take good care of yourselves; your fellow encourager
ROSEBUD
^ PRAYERS ^ continue for all, esp JIM, JEFF, SCOTTY, LEVI, and yours ...
