Bitty Blog

5/27/09,,,,an itty, bitty Blog----
This will be more like blog bullets as I update a little. Actually, the only coherent time I had today when I could blog, I had no access----our electricity was out for over 2 hours. Not good when a computer needs “juice.”
  • • Grandaddy taken back to ICU at 4:30 a.m.
  • • Playing catch up at work continued but minimal stress b/c Angie has covered for me for months.
  • • Larry and son, Buddy, and grandson, Noah on a long anticipated “heritage” trip
  • • My gracious principal allowed me to use my lunch time to spend the 12-1:00 ICU visiting time w/ Grandaddy.
  • • Long nap brought some refreshment to a depleted body---no electricity took away all the distractions from phone to computer.
  • • Michele, my MAC survivor friend from Germany, arrives in North America. The possibility that we might meet this side of heaven thrills my heart.
  • • Received e-mail from friend,Shirley, expressing well the privilege of prayer.
I know many of you have your own griefs and sorrows and pains and difficult situations going on and I am remembering to lift you up too! Nothing encourages me to remember to pray for others than when I have pressing prayer needs of my own!”
  • • Bernie’s phone message---Hebrews 5:14, “But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.” (NASB) THOTS---solid food=God’s word and practice = constant use/exercise of the truth—need to practice! Practice!! Practice!!!
  • • Phone call from Pickwick----the Texans and Larry saying, “Nite, I love you.”
