Friday!

 

I hope your week has gone well!  Here it is already 3:30pm on Friday.  We have been enjoying quite the number of nice spring-like days recently.  Not too warm yet but more sunshine and blue skies.  So wonderful!  Our lawn was getting quite long and we went to mow it.  And we couldn't get the mower started.  We tried and tried.  We had to take it to a repair shop - there was debris in the carburator and new spark plug.  They also changed the oil and sharpened the blades.  $122.72.  We borrowed my sister's lawn mower on Wednesday to mow and our mower was done by Saturday.

On Monday, Autumn had an appointment with the dentist to have one cavity filled.  Now that that is done, she is good for six months until her next cleaning.

On Tuesday, Addie had an appointment at 8:50am at the DMV to get her Oregon driver's license.  Here in OR, they require you to take the written test in order to transfer your license.  Unfortunately, she did not pass.  Quite the bummer because we waited over two months just for that appointment.  I have gone on the DMV website and they don't have any open appointments showing.  So I have to just keep checking back in order to just get an appointment.

At 1:00pm, we had a virtual doctor appointment for Summer.  It was just an appointment so we could establish care with a new physician here in Oregon.

At 6:30pm, Sierra went to a "Night Out" for her middle school youth group.  They met at a restaurant called Shari's and had pie and fellowship.

Wednesday, I dropped off my husband's car at the repair shop.  It needed the front brakes done. $199 They were also checking on a problem with the check engine light.

I took my Volvo in to have the oil changed, cabin air filter, air filter and a couple of lights.  $189  The repair costs are adding up this week. LOL!

At 6:30pm, Summer went to Quest - a kid's club at church.

Thursday @ 3:30pm, Autumn attended her high school girls' Bible Study at the youth pastor's home.

Then Sierra and Autumn went to youth group at their cousins' church and Summer went to Awana.  They do this every Thursday night at 6:30pm.

Today is Friday - my main cleaning day.  Of course, we are still doing school every day.  I dropped off my Volvo because of an odd sound.  They checked it, found the problem and will be ordering the part to fix it next week.

Well, time to finish up school things for the week, make dinner - Chicken Stir Fry and walk Max for his evening walk.  I hope you all had a good week.  Thanks for stopping by!

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."...
