See Ya

I AM OUT OF HERE !!!

Today's Thought:

A day on vacation is a special gift from God.

Changed mind

I have decided not to got to Georgia this week. It's just to much driving, and it's way to hot down there, and besides what would I do while I'm there? It would be much more fun to stay home and work. If you believe this you have both oars on the sidewalk.
Life is Good! And I am ready to go and have a good time. And am looking forward to all the visitors coming to say Hey Y'all.

Pre Travel Blues

I despise the days before travel. I don't want to be at work. I want to go. I love the excitement of getting on the road. But first, Things need to be done. Diane makes lists. Items need to be packed. Oil needs to be changed. It's all part of a process. Can't I just go now! If I win that big lotto tonight I am out of here!

Today's thought:

Faults are thick where love is thin.

Humid

And people ask why did you by a home in Georgia? It's so humid there. I think I might go there to get a break from this humidity. The electric bill should be a whopper this month. I just can't imagine not having A/C it would be so sticky. I would have to live at Wal-Mart.

Today's thought:

If spiritual fruit is a produced by faith, Do we harvest by the peck, the bushel or truckload?

Happy Friday

Happy Friday to all! It has been a hot work week and I am looking forward to the weekend. I need to get organized for the trip South this weekend, as well as go to Port Huron for the Smith party. It's appears that we will have a few guests while we are in Georgia. That sounds like a lot of fun.

Today's thought:

At times, it is better to keep your mouth shut and let people wonder if you're a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

On the river

After church last night we went to our friends (Dave & Barb) house. They live on the shore of the Huron river. It is amazing to me how calming the view of the water is so... Well,,, calming. Makes me long to be at our Georgia home. Eight more days and we will go for a visit.

Motivation is when your dreams put on work clothes.

I forget

Today's thought:

A lot of people mistake a short memory for a clear conscience.

I can't remember if this applies to me! I always figured that forgetfulness was a gift from God.

I guess that it could be a gift when it pertains to the past. But I also figure it could be a mistake forgetting to put God first in our future.

Happy Hump Day!

Wilted worker

This heat just take all my desire to do anything and throws it right into the Lazy Boy. All my get up and go has got up and went. I would rather be boating! I know it's a broken record.

Today's thought:

Today, as everyday we have rebirth in Christ Jesus. Let's go live it with the enthusiasm of a child.

Aint no cure for the summertime blogs

All is quiet on the blogger front! Everybody must be on the go so much that posting has taken a back seat to life. Travel, marriage, boyfiends you name it this blogging community has it. It's nice to see eveyone is having a good summer.

Prayers a needed. A friend of ours from church J. Potratz is a cancer survivor. She survived chemo and beat cancer about 2 years ago. But now the chemo treatments have caused leukemia. She is going in today for treatment. The treatment will take four weeks. If she survives the first week. And then we need time, and a match for a bone marrow transplant. Please pray for God's hand to guide this process. I know that this grave situation is a win win for her. But, it sure would be nice if she could put her granddaughter on the school bus in a couple of years.

Today's thought:

Sometimes the Lord calms the storm; sometimes He let's the storm rage and calms His child.

Product endorsement

I am removing identification no. From the jet ski we bought. They are painted on, in three layered colors. I tried a number of products to help remove them without much success. Oven cleaner, paint thinner, stripper, just to mention a few. Diane suggested Magic Eraser. Believe it or not it worked. I just give it some elbow grease and they wash away. This is a great product. I used it quite a bit when I clean up our boat it works on about everything.

TGIF and it was only a four day work week!

Today's thought:

Our joy is knowing that God's love is for all.

Tease

My neighbor in Georgia sent me these photos of our flowers. As if it wasn't bad enough. I want to go now!

Time off

I am glad I am not a teacher! I would probably starve. If I got the summers off I am sure I would not go back to work in the fall. I think I need to start buying lotto tickets. And hope for the best. This working hard for a living I highly overrated.

In about sixteen days we head South. I am sooo ready! I have a lot of things to complete before then but I am still sooo ready.

I seem to be feeling better today, hope that's a trend that will stick around. Andy is going on his fifth day of feeling ok! That's if he wakes up and is doing ok.

Today's thought:

A good thing to remember, a better thing to do-work with the construction gang, not with the wrecking crew.

5 days off and it back to work!. I wish I felt better. I have had waves indigestion and tired spells for two days now. And this morning I feel a little clammy.

The Chi town wedding was great! Lot's of people, lots of trains. I don't think I could live there but its a fun place to visit. Best wishes to Sonia & Mike & and have a great trip.

Diane & I are now proud owners of a Polaris Jet Ski. I wonder if I fall off if I will be able to get back on.

God never ask about our ability or our inability - just our availability.
