Blogging break!......literally:/

A couple of months ago I dropped my laptop on the floor and shattered the screen. Instantly, I said, "We'll, I guess I won't be blogging anymore" and I put it away in the cabinet....just like that!

I'd be lying if I said I haven't missed it because I a 'show and tell' kind of girl!  For example, yesterday I made a really cutr burlap door hanger.....  my favorite yet! I would have liked to have shared it on a blog post but without my laptop, I'm clueless! This technical world we live in can be so fun and frustrating at the same time. At this very moment, I'm typing from Coach's iPad and have no idea how to post a picture and to make matters worse, I have no one to ask:( Yep, I having a little pity party this morning! However, it won't be able to last long because I'm surround by people who have far worse problems. Like my precious friend Jo Carol, who surrounded by loved ones is fighting what maybe the last days of her battle with cancer. Or my wonderful Mother, who dealing with slow loss of memory and a bright mind.  Also, my friend Tamara, who is picking up her 20 year old son this morning, whose been in prison. Though, she and Taylor are thrilled beyond words for a second chance at life! They have a lot of challenging hurdles ahead of them. On the top of the list is turning a 3 room shack in the country into a functioning home. I love DIY but this is overwhelming! With cold weather coming, very little help and money, but you can't believe how excited they are to have an opportunity to be free and live on a farm:) Will you please pray for them all? I am so grateful that God is good, alive & well on planet earth!  I'm singing....I really am.....
           Praise Him, praise Him all you little children. God is good. God is good!
           Praise Him, praise Him all you little children......God is good.

Anyway, I just wanted you to know why my blog came to a screeching halt and that I'm trying to figure out whether to repair a 6 year old Dell laptop or save up for a new one?

A quick update: Our house is still for sale. lots of interest put no contract as of this morning.
After months of splurging on dessert, I've gained 10 lbs. but don't worry! God has given me a sound mind and choice. I will not be gaining 11.
Coach and the Wildcats are on a roll! After a rough start, they have become a strong team. A band of brothers! If we win either of our next two games, we're guaranteed a spot in the playoffs.
Our family is doing well......much to be thankful for:)

Hope you all are in a good place, are happy and know you are loved. If not, please whisper the name Jesus, give Him your heart and all your cares. Believe and Trust Him.....He is really is our only hope! He has power and authority over heaven and earth. He will hear you and help you.
Thank Him, in advance, for His love, forgiveness and goodness.

I was very excited to open my email and see you had posted on your blog. Yay. Fix the laptop. My son's had a broken screen this summer and I fixed it for about $125. Unless, of course, you want a new one anyway. I started the 30 day challenge 2 days ago...now it is the 28 day challenge. That's how many days until Thanksgiving. I'm determined to lose a few pounds by Thanksgiving. I am a very new follower of yours. Thanks for the update. I look forward to hearing from you again soon. Thanks for the reminder this morning that yes, Jesus is the answer to all our woes.
