DMV, Vet and More!

 Wednesday was quite the busy day!

Autumn and Sierra left to go on a three day campout with the high school youth group and youth pastor of Grace Baptist Church.  They are going to Beverly Beach State Park on the Oregon coast.  I dropped them off at the church a little before 9am.

Summer had another Summer Jam activity hosted by Northwest Christian Church.  It was 9-11am at Dundee Elementary.  Games, bounce houses, crafts, etc.  Eric worked from home Wednesday so he was able to help with taking her and picking her up.

After I dropped off Sierra and Summer, I headed to the DMV.  Unfortunately, it didn't open until 10am.  So I took the car and went to the car wash.  I got it washed and then vacuumed the entire car.  This is Sonny's car that transferred to us upon his death.  We had not had the title transferred yet but the registration in Nevada was up on August 4th so I needed to get in to the DMV and get it done.

After the car wash, I got in line at the DMV.  You had to wait in the line and when you got to the check-in desk, they took your phone number.  Then you had to go back outside, wait until you got a text to come inside.  So you had to wait in line AGAIN to get to the check-in desk to get a NUMBER and then wait for your number to be called.  Holy moly!

So a lot of waiting just to get to the counter to do my transactions for them to say: here is a paper that you need to take and get notarized.

So then I picked up Eric and we went to the bank to have the paper notarized.  Then BACK to the DMV to guess....wait in line to wait in line!  LOL!  We did get it finally completed.  Oregon title in our names (even though it could take 12 weeks to actually receive it!), Oregon plates and registration for his dad's old car.  Which will now be the girls to use to go to work.  It's a 98 Subaru Legacy with 220,000 miles so it has seen its days but is still a solid car for now.  Hey, all kids need a beater to drive when they are teens. :)

This is the third and last vehicle to get registered and titled in the state of Oregon.  Good night - we are broke now!!

Then we made a stop to Staples for Eric to get a few things for his new job.  Then rushed home to get the kitty ready for his vet appt.  Nearly 45 min. to get to the vet location.  It was a long day pretty much gone the whole day from before 9am to 6:30pm.

We dropped off Eric's car to be checked out so today I will be staying home without a vehicle.  Hopefully I can catch up here with all my housework. :)

Smokey is doing a ton better already this morning by the way!  More active than I have seen him for the whole time we have had him so that is good!  It's quite the acrobatics to give him his meds and eye drops but we are working on it.  I hope it all clears up and he gets back to normal.

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...
