Miracles

Out for my morning exercise, I pass a friend going the opposite way. We greet each other and keep going our separate ways.  A short time later I see her vehicle, but something was not right!  A window on her car was broken...no....shattered! Someone had broken into her car!   I paused and stood there a minute, then turned  and saw her returning to her car.  She was sure that her purse was gone, for that was the only possible thing they would be after.   The police were contacted, and I went on my way, not waiting to find out what transpired.
What she later shared with me  made goose bumps!  When the police arrived, and she really looked into her car...everything valuable... was still there in the car!  She thought that I just happened at the right time, or some other workers arriving at their job may have scared off the would be thieves...but I truly believe it was angels  protecting her vehicle, and God had said to those thieves "you can go this far...but no further...she is Mine!"

Cold Spell



We were told it might freeze...and it did. That is ice from standing water.  Looks like some of the garden plants didn't make it through.

Today's entertainment



At 9 a.m. we heard a loud pop...our lights blinked off, clocks went blank , computers switched to battery mode, .and the  phone ceased to work....Fortunately we have a cell phone on hand, gas  water heater, gas stove, and gas fireplace! It took the repair team about half an hour to arrive.  Then we watched them cut some branches that were touching the electrical wires at the house next door.  As they were working, they cut a wire...












They had to call in another troop to handle those wires they cut accidentally


.And it just so happens to be the coldest day yet ...with drizzly rain.
Thanks to these guys...our electricity is back on after 2 hours.
Now I don't have an excuse...got to get some work done now that we have electricity!

Creative Minds at work

I heard strange noises, and saw awkward movements coming from the study desk, and when the noise quieted...this is what was seen.



The question is...does it say something? I think it is kool!

Morning Beauty

This morning when I woke, this is what I saw. It encouraged me to get out for my walk...which was invigorating.  Songs of praise were on my mind as I walked and talked with God.  Our God is an Awesome God;Praise to the Lord; How Great Thou Art...with some words from Psalms I had just read gave me a good start to this new day.

I saw lots of "moon shadows"

Rain...


The weather has turned colder and brought some rain with it. The garden enjoyed it at first, but then...it is still raining more than 24 hours later. So unusual for us to experience here.
