I cannot believe it is Friday. I cannot believe I worked until eleven last night and I am up at six a.m. Not sure where the days go. Yesterday we went to Mt. Pleasant with the truck. I followed in my Passat.  Mr Truck is back from the "Put the bumper back on - fix the dent in the fender - replace the broken windshield -replace the shattered side-mirror place" and now at the interior repair shop.  This brought back memories of my grandmother and mother helping my brother restore the seats and interior on his bug eye Sprite.  The beauty of all of their sewing finished out a gorgeous car. 


This shop brought back all those memories.  Alan Braddock Interiors.   It is an old-fashioned shop in the middle of Mt Pleasant that was started back in the early sixties by the original owner and now his son, who must be in his late forties, runs the shop. First the smell of leather, then the tables with large sewing machines and tons of fabrics.  Craftsmanship seems to be the key and quality and customer happiness is a must.  Mr Truck will be there until mid week next week...then maybe vacation?  

It was 107 today here. Extremely hot. Last night about 10 there was lightening and rain for just a few moments...mainly sheet lightening. Not enough moisture to even put anything in the rain gauge.


God has a plan and I know His way is the best...even with the heat.  (At the interior shop Lea, the office manager, mentioned someone confided in her that the farmer's almanac predicted temps in the mid eighties by mid month August.)  Meanwhile I am confident He is at work in me, as I struggle to become studied in His word and committing daily to His walk and His ways.  I fail everyday, but each morning like this when I get up, I know the chance is here to ask forgiveness, pray more, focus more and prioritize as He would desire me to.

The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.”- Psalm 119:130
