Last full week in January!

Monday, hey!  A break in the overcast skies and we actually saw blue!  Monday is my grocery shopping day and chiropractor day.  They are in the same shopping complex and the chiropractor I like is only at that office on Mondays.  So I combine both errands for that day since it is a long drive.


Pastor Kenny Baldwin was the speaker for Opening Convocation for Pensacola Christian College.  He spoke four different times and the sermons were so good.  You can find them on YouTube.


It was bath time for all the animals.  Max - I gave him a lime sulfur dip.  It helps with his skin which has more problems as he ages.  Next week, I will give him a regular bath with a medicated shampoo.




Bathed both cats.  They do pretty well.  OK, they don't love it and give me the low growl but we did fine.  LOL!  Fig always is the drama queen and tries to escape the bathroom once she's done.  I leave them in there until they are mostly dry.  Jack made himself comfortable on the sink while waiting.


I don't like this.  The homeless are showing up more often in our small town.  I was having my evening walk with Max in the CEMETERY and there is a homeless person with their cart.  I have no clue what they were doing.  Oregon, get ahold of this craziness!




Even though Summer is 12, I love that she still has the imagination to play with her Barbies. :)

The week was pretty much just normal things.  
School. Work. Church stuff.  Overcast and cold days.  Is January over yet?

Meals this week:

I hope your week was good as well!

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."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1.  Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2.  Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3.  Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4.  Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5.  Pray for your students. 6.  Have a monthly or quarterly contest for your students.  Include bringing their Bible, saying memory verses, attendance, etc.  Award small prizes. 7.  Have a special craft once a month. 8.  Rev up your teaching time!  Use props such as costumes, pictures, videos.  Make your lesson time come alive.  Teach your lesson 2-3 times during the week out loud – you will be amazed at how you will be able to teach it to your students – not just following the words in the book. 9.  After the lesson, be creative!  Students should not just be sitting and waiting for Sunday School hour ...
