Good Morning, Janet I understand totally about driving over the Native grasses. In my area of California we are so conscious of damage to the native enviornment.

More rain today, I wish it would dry up for a few days so I can get out the lawn mower and cut the grass.  By the time it is dry enough it will be tough to get the mower through the grass. I should have done that  two weeks ago.

Jeannine praying for your hubby here.

Praying for you also Pat.

Sounds like you had a very enlightening time Jane.

Thanks for the "welcome home" from all y'all: Larry, Janet, Etta Sue, Carol, Marilyn etc....... I really did have a good week and even learned some good stuff.  But, I am very grateful to be back home, now. 

It's raining here, too, Marilyn.  I think the forecast is for rain throughout this week.  Hopefully, my wood supply will hold out.     I thought maybe the coldest weather was past and I'd be okay.  Oh well......  My neighbor brought me some scrap wood that will take me another few days.   

Gotta go ...... stuff to do, places to go, people to see...... you know how that goes.

I would rather mow the grass than shovel this snow.  If it snows any more between now and Wednesday morning, I may not get out of my driveway.  I almost got stuck driving back in from church.   

It is nice going to Ivalou's little church.  Quite a traditional church.  But truly I missed seeing all the teens and little kids that attend my church in Greenfield. 

Three of us went to eat at O'Charley's.  Then Ivalou and I went to the drug store in Lapel.  I am thinking I am getting a sinus cold.  Drainage, sneezing, voice sounds funny, and a full head.  So I got some medication to nip it in the bud, I hope! 

I am home now for a little over an hour and then we go back to Ivalou's church for the singing.  Afterwards they are having sandwiches, salads and desserts!  Sounds like fun!

We made it out to the highway and back home again after church, and I was so glad Darrel was driving!  He nearly got stuck, but we kept inching along........   I love the moisture, but how I wish the county would either put a lot more gravel on these two blocks of muddy road, or else go ahead and pave it.  But, for sure, we aren't the only ones having the same struggle.

Etta Sue, wouldn't it be nice if we could save the snow and then just order the amount we want when it gets dry, or in your case, warmer?  Not in the cards, though.  But lucky you, you are going to Florida, where I hope you will enjoy much warmer weather.  This afternoon's singing at Iva Lou's church sounds like a fun time.

I looked at a sewing machine last year at the fair, one that did the embroidery.  I thought I really wanted it, but then thought seriously about how much I would actually use it, and decided it probably wasn't the wisest purchase for me.  I surely do admire the lovely stuff they can do with those, though.  Since Carol and Pat are both quilters, I'm sure they get lots of use and enjoyment out of their Berninas.  I've heard for years that those are great machines.

I went to bed last night, fell asleep quickly, then woke thinking it surely must be time to get up---looked at the clock---1:30 AM.    I lay there wide awake for an hour, then got up and went to the living room, turned the piano volume to low, and practiced for an hour.  By then I was kind of sleepy, so went back to bed.  Right now, I feel a nap stealing up on me. 

This is the week of our family retreat at Horn Creek, Colorado for the church.  So that should be fun.  Last year their tubing slope was closed because they didn't have enough snow, but they said the snow was waist deep a couple days ago and they got another 18" so tubing should be great!  Some of the young folks will also do some skiing at Monarch.  I've never skiied, and think it would be foolish to start now. 

I spent all of yesterday scrapbooking, so I'm going to put my stuff away and then find my pillow.  Talk to you later!

Hi Everyone, 
Hope you are all well.    How are you Pat?  We have a typical Canadian winter here is  Ontario.    Looks lovely, like a picture post card with snow on everything and cold.

Today Joe Boot spoke at The Peoples Church.   He is the Canadian Director of Ravi Zaccarias Ministries.   He spoke about "The uniquness of Jesus Christ in the World of the Cults.    I was reminded about how fortunate we are to have Jesus Christ, the mightly God who created the world and planets living in our lives.    He is unique and wonderful and we Christians are so blessed!   

God Bless

What a wonderful poem Colin.     I'm going to print it and send to my email buddies.   Hope someone will think about Christ and decide to make Him their Lord.

God bless

Love Ruthie

Hi, friends,

I really enjoyed our pastor's sermon again this morning. He spoke about how the members of the early church took care of others as the need arose. We, too, need to care for those who encounter difficulties navigating the road of life.

It's chilly, and I think we must be in for a weather change - my joints are "complaining" today.

Y'all have a good afternoon.

Been here reading the posts, not much to say right now. I am going to prayer meeting , then on to a training  meeting  in the fellowship hall after prayer.

I asked a couple of people  after church if they wanted to go to lunch but  they had other things to do. I asked 3 different people then gave up and came home. Oh well going out for lunch would not have been any good for  me trying to eat sensibly anyway. So I came home and ate a Weight Watchers meal. 

Yesterday at Costco I bought some South Beach protein bars for occasional snacks. They are pretty good.

Goodevening to all:

We had Sue drop by an hour or so ago with tea & coffee it was at our home instead of meeting half way between her home and ours which would be Tim Hortons. 

Judy B:  Something I learned many years ago is that wild life is different in different parts of the province. Perhaps the bird you saw is native to your area. 

We have lots of snow and the temp. has already dropped again.  Brrrrrrrrrrr it is cold again.

Good night all!

We had a couple of inches of snow this morning.   travis got to snowboard some, and kristi got to sled for the first time ever.    they had a blast.  we didn't have morning services because of the weather, but we did have evening services.  of course, we didn't have any heat in the building, so brrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

pat, i hope you are feeling better.  i will remember you in my prayers. 

i apologize for the lack of capitals, my right shift key sticks a bit, and the sound it makes annoys me, so i'm using the shift keys sparingly.

take care all
