Wonderful weekend. We sat up our nest in a small pine grove and it was perfect. No lights or water yet, so we had to "rough it" with just the couple of gallons we'd taken with us, one candle that would actually stay lit and Chip rigged up some lights from the truck battery, lol. Logan loved it and didn't want to leave with David and Jarrod. It was sooooo quiet! I'd forgotten what it's like to actually be able to hear nature. Nothing but birds and frogs and an occasional cow lowing. We had a fire all Saturday evening and made our coffee on one Sunday morning. Went to his house to watch the Superbowl and it was an awesome game. First one I've watched in years. Altogether a wonderful weekend.

Yes. I am contrary. *giggles* but he's got it coming. Irregardless of how wonderful that deer sausage was for breakfast (and the spare for lunch, lol). I can only wonder how much irritation was on my face and in my voice when he called pretending to be a customer and stuttering unbelievably before asking for "the Bobby Barlows". Twice. I know how mischievious they are, probably watching me on the camera, KNOWING I was trying to smoke.... Now I'm plotting sweet revenge.

Jarrod called Ronnie tonight. First time he/they have talked to him since the last time they called him. As I was washing clothes, Jarrod came in giggling and told me to pray for him. Same old same old. He was drunk as a skunk. Lost his job because USA is outsourcing all that now. Even now, my heart hurts for him. Said his legs are getting bad. I know last time I took Logan to see him in Birmingham, he was dragging one leg really bad. He's almost 50. It actually shocked me that I felt the way I did. Just a really deep sadness for him. I really will pray for him. I hate that life has beat him up so bad. He had a good side, once upon a time, but the drinking is still using him as a favorite cup. Such a shame. Megan said she told him about the whole fiasco with Mama and Jerry. The kids were watching our old home videos last night, the ones where daddy was dying and Mama was taking care of them while I stayed with him. Things can go so horribly wrong in life. It's a wonder sometimes we can keep faith at all. Sheer grace. The kids and I prayed for him. I don't ever remember feeling this much real compassion for him. No bitterness left at all. Thank you Jesus. I am currently Blessed

of many firsts. Jesus woke me up at 5:45 with a greeting card this morning. I can still see it as plain as day. I can still see the shape of it. In the shape of an angels wing and he was in a robe and headband with the picture of him stepping up and even stranger yet, a huge blue moon was in front of him and kind of close to the tip of the angel wing. I've tried to sketch it. Not even close, but I won't give up. I just wonder what the inside of the card said! He didn't open it, so the contents are still a mystery....
Will you open it for me tomorrow, Lord? I'm dying to see what it says inside. That was the coolest wake up EVER! It looked just like some kind of Hallmark card. THAT WAS SO KEWL!!!! He is so awesome. The cartoon cariacature of him looked very suitable as something for a little child but not at all childish....
I'll be pondering over this one all day, I have no doubt. Awesome.
I know what it's saying and I'm so excited! I just love His language. I never knew I could enjoy being talked to in pictures so very much. It is such an imaginative medium of communication.... fascinating. I am currently Devoted

hanging out at my house. Pretty thing, looks like it's got to be one of Gladys' Smokey offspring, same exact silvery color. Looks just like him just smaller. Going south this morning as I was heading north, two geese. Hope and pray they don't regret it. Big storms moving in. Windmaker, Seawalker is His name.

WOW! Before I call, He answers. The words I've gotten today, coupled with the actual...I've got to try to find the goose thingy again, forgotten what Bob said that meant...Jarrod asked me to pray for him this morning before he started his new job.
GODISNOWHERE
If you read this as God is no where, you will see it can be read another, eternally true way
GOD IS NOW HERE
And I saw Him again. WHEW!!!!!
He has His cowboy boots on. And spurs. Wonder what ...
And it AIN'T no colt He's riding on in triumph this time. What a mount. I wish I could draw better. Definite incentive.... If I could just sketch what I saw!!! Just as I saw it...
Oh I hope they hire Jenny soooooon! I'm already sick of submittals again.
