Monday morning,
Sorry to be so slow in posting, but I couldn't get into my website. Maybe I made it too complicated when I first set this up. Anyway, see it was back on the 29th of October, that I last added to this. Halloween has come and gone, we had about 55 trick or treaters come to our door. Of that number, none was from our block on Foss nor on the block to the East on Hurst streets. That is sad, although there aren't too many kids of that age, which means that these are from a distance, or drive in kids. See a lot of cars drive by at the same time, so think they load up the kids till they see a house light on, and then let them out to collect.
After I had turned off the house lights, I heard these little voices saying, trick or treat, trick or treat several times. I could tell they were small children, so opened the door to some adorable little faces, and I was glad to share the last of my candies with them. After that, no one else came to the door.
Monday night was CityTeam ministry night, and Sandra and I were privileged to have Pastor Mark come and share both spoken word, and a trombone solo. The men so enjoy instrumental music, so may try and expand that ministry next time we go down to the mission.
Am hoping to hear from Chris and Julie and boys today, they have been back in Iowa to attend Julie's moms wedding. She married a farmer from Indiana "DON", whom she met on a missions work trip a couple of years ago. I think they will be very happy together.
As most of you know who live around here, we are in a rainy season. BUT thats OKAY with me, for without the rain, we wouldn't have the beauty of the trees and all the other beautiful things God has give us. The lakes and rivers, etc, etc. I take whatever weather God gives, with a thankful heart.
Wonder if I shouldn't sign off for now. would love to enclude a few pictures, but I somehow lose them in trying to transfer them to this blog. Partly, I don't have the patience to wait for the transfer to take place. So, will sign off for now. Cherio!
