Lots of green

No, not money, although I did pick up

some extra money this week helping a friend

get her house ready for Christmas. It was

more fun than work! I don't know where

I came up with this idea but I don't think

I like it. However, it does use up a lot of

little tiny green flowers that I've had forever

and a day, so that fulfills the challenge.

Sorry no post the last two days, by the way.

It was a long and crazy weekend.  I'm not

holding up my part of the bargain with Karen

and it was my idea to start with!

Robin is still hoping she will be able

to come by the end of the year.  I know it

would make my parents very happy and

we get sister time since she stays here

at my house.  And maybe we can get

together with my friends for lunch like we

usually do when she is here.  Except for
Dianne.  She is basking in the sunshine in

Florida.  I'm so jealous.

Isaiah 41:10

Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

Did you know that the phrase “do not fear”

is in the Bible 365 times? God is so loving.

He wants us to depend on him for everything,

even in (and maybe especially) times that are

hard and we can't understand His reasoning.

It surely makes us stronger. At least it does me.

Happy Monday!
