Six a.m. Wow I slept in today! Terry is still asleep but there is much to do so I am up as always working. Today is ship and pack day and I must have all my work ready for shipping so he can pack it. I am patiently waiting for a canvas order to arrive. I am down to almost nothing to paint on. Very frustrating.

I spoke with Stacey last night and she bought bacon for 50 cents. She said it was five dollar bacon but with all her coupon adjustments it was only fifty cents. Sounds like she could do this coupon thing for working people and save them tons of money. Wonder if I can hire her. Not going to the grocery store would not be missed.

Terry and Morgan are suppose to bring a load from the Storage Unit. Only about 14 more days until we have to have it empty. I am going to list the Lawn mower on Craig's List today as well. It is a huge one with lots of attachments for a large yard. You could probably cut ours with a push mower now...very small.

Terry says the dogs need psychiatric help over the change in their lives. Do you ever feel that way? Things are running loose out of control and nothing, simply nothing is happening or unfolding the way you thought it should? Welcome to my world. With age I have learned the trick is to float along and find happiness in what is there. Seek the positive and give thanks for it however small it might be. Just like the dogs, it takes time and patience to switch your thoughts from where you think you should be going to where you actually are. If you waste energy and thoughts on what should have been you are wasting your life. God has plans for you.


Grace,
Laurie

A Bit of Wonder Contemporary Horse Oil Daily Painting Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 x 30 x 2 inches of thick buttery oils! Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...

Arrival...Refrigerator?

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Arrival Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whtever you do, and he will establish your plans."   Worrisome times laced with prayers.   The world seems like a scary place lately. Praying for everyone affected by the last two hurricanes.  My adventures today were the result of a dead refrigerator. I have loved my Kitchen Aid refrigerator very much. The first one in the 'French Kitchen' look died at 13 months. Hubby wanted the same refrigerator. Well this one made it four years and a few months. I cannot believe appliances are not made to last longer...but wait, is that because they make more money if we have to replace it in 4-5 years?  You replace your mattress at least every 7 years... and your washer dryer, you might get 7 years out of those... The stoves seem to make it closer to 10 years. We are Lowe's customers, and Robert ...
