Hubby's home. (Didn't think he'd make it, so very thankful.)

PennEd and Rich turning our home into a place that doesn't embarrass us or the block anymore.

Windows that aren't rotten AND the open.

A kitchen where I cab finally see what I'm washing.

We got to rooms back.

Plenty of herbs in the garden and the Lord helping me with new ways to use them in dinner.

My goiter has been burnt out enough that I have an neck-insie.

My eyes.

Mellow blood pressure.

Sunflowers small enough to bring the whole pot in.

A book ready to query.

All's going well now. Fell like Gods given us some time off in the oasis.

I was thanking God an hour ago, for running water at my clients house. People take that for granted. We turn on the faucet and ta- da.... Water... Other places. There isn't any.. and people end up dying.
