Thank God for Friends
After
breakfast I bagged up weeds
Then
Kathie and James came
They
brought her saw and her big truck
I’m
glad that she was game
We
worked two hours on the elms
That
grew along my fence
And
now I’ll try to keep them down
This
Saturday and hence
The
rest of the day I was tired
And
snacked and watched TV
I even
took a little nap
Was
lazy as could be
And now
today marks just two days
And
then we will be on our way
Treasure
T oday
I
R each
up to You,
E xpressing
my love and
A ppreciation
for the
S ecurity
I have in You.
U ltimately,
when my mind is troubled, I
R ely
on Your grace, love and mercy
E ach
and every day. Remind me to do that more.
As the Lord Wills
Walked
in the park with Regina
With
Linda I did pray
And I
researched New York hotels
For January
Day
Three
loads of laundry, then came next
And Facebook
scrolling, too
I played
some games and read some things
Though
had a lot to do
I
packed my carryon so full
Won’t
fit another thing
I also
packed my Mesa bag
For
soon I will take wing
Just
three more days and then we’ll drive
And I
can’t wait to go
As
long as it is the Lord’s will
Yes,
this, of course, I know
2 Corinthians
3:16
Covered,
hidden, protected
In grace
Yet standing
bold, clean, seen
In the
throne room
Working On It
In the
morning, when rain had stopped,
I
walked, but not too far
Put branches
in a large trash bag
And air
in tires of car
After
lunch I wrote a trip poem
Walked
and then cut some elms
And
then booked a flight to New York
Sometimes
I’m overwhelmed
Received
a package in the mail
It should
prevent my snore
It
would be nice to ditch CPAP
I
couldn’t ask for more
Watched
Korean Romance movie
Called
Crash Landing on You
So now
I have four more days to go
There’s
still a lot to do
One Task at a Time
Five
more days and it rained a lot
Got
sleepy from gray sky
Errand
running kept me awake
I had
a lot to buy
First,
I went to the post office
I put
a hold on mail
I got
the meds at pharmacy
At
this I did not fail
Then Wal-Mart
to buy groceries
And
some trip extras, too
I had
to buy a hair dryer
My old
one cracked straight through
And
then in the late afternoon
A visit
from a friend
I took
a long break from the chores
On
which there is no end
Took a
shower and ate our meal
And
then I went to church
Animals-of-Bible
Study
A lot
comes from that search
My
to-dos work like a jig-saw
One
piece at a time
So, I
just need to not stress out
And
trust it works out fine
Getting Out of Here
Six more days and time’s going fast
Though I do like my home
Adventure’s calling once again
To Alaska I’ll roam
First
to Mesa to see the kids
Where
my hubby will stay
Then
to Seattle to meet Sis
And we’ll
be on our way
We’ll cruise
out in the open sea
Just
for a little while
And then
to the inside passage
I
think of it and smile
For
now, it’s life as usual
Housework,
church, and writing
Plus all
of the pre-trip todo’s
Till
it gets exciting
Six
more days and time’s going fast
Though
I do like my home
Adventure’s
calling once again
To Alaska I’ll roam
