Hey my vacation is almost over. :( I want to say thank you to everyone who came to get me or took me places or fed me. I had a great time. Molly and Mike, thanks for letting me stay with you guys. Thanks for getting married, having Brock who brings me so much love and joy I can't express it. MOLLY.>>>>>>>>> HAPPY BIRTHDAY TODAY, JULY 5. 27 years ago I gave birth to a beautiful 8 pd 11 oz baby girl. God blessed her dad and I that day and I will always be grateful to HIM for letting me be a mom 27 years ago today. I LOVE YOU MOLLY!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Barb, my sister and I went to Goodwill today and she got me some very cute tops. Thanks Sis. I love Goodwill.
I have come to a place in my life where, I do not want to be puffy, or greedy, or self centered. I have been humbled by God over and over. I try, never to try to impress anyone. I look at people in other towns, countries, or anywhere in the world, and I see how some people have NOTHING! No house, just a hut, no yard, just dirt, or even homeless people. They live so meekly. Some would say, "Oh get a job you lazy ----" Or , "You put yourself where you are." Well that could be so, but think about it, humble yourself, sometimes God gives us a bad circumstance for a way for us to learn from it. I just hate when people have these huge houses with room after room, and so much space for what? Are they helping anyone? Do they really know how blessed they are? DO YOU know how blessed you are? I whine all the time that the house we are in is so small. So what? I whine I don't have a bath tub. I whine that our kitchen is so small. So what? I have to think about other people who have nothing or barely nothing. I am truly blessed!!! Besides the Bible says do not covet. Covet is wanting what someone else has. It seems we always want more......Will MORE get us into heaven? Nope. We came into this world with nothing and we shall leave this world with nothing. It's still all about Finding Jesus, Accepting Jesus into our lives, loving Jesus, thanking Jesus, and in the end being able to have eternal life in heaven. Whoa it is such a big thing to wrap yourself around.
So in ending this today, Thank you all again for the fun I have had in IL and WI. Food, beds, clothes, rides, gifts, friendship and caring, all of it. I will post pictures when I get home. Oh and Barb, thanks for letting me use your computer to write and post this. LOVE YOU!!!

very sweet pots. you are blessed, and I am blessed to know you. Have a great weekend my friend
We had some fun, didn't we? I enjoyed hanging out, swimming and just laughing.
Loved you in that yellow top; I also loved what you had to say here...contentment in all things. Hard to always put into practice but such a great discipline to seek. (Guess I'll stay out of Kohl's for awhile.)
Have a blessed day looking at your beautiful montains.
Love you, Barb
