A very quick blog as we tend to last minute things around the house. I will try and take pictures as we finish up. Terry has the gate done in the backyard. He and Morgan will move the boat this morning so it is not sitting in the middle of the back yard. The extra boat pieces will be stored next to the side of the house. He has the horrible itch to get a second boat trailer for the second boat but I suggested a storage area when he said that. He then said, I have a back yard, and I said...you need lawyer first. I do not think I am over sensitive to TWO huge sailboats taking over the entire backyard.

I am on a mission to find out more about Alzheimer Trained Dogs. I now know they exist. I found the first one was trained in Israel. There are a few here in the states, but not many. This is a void that must be filled. With the growing number of Alzheimer's patients in the US, it is a screaming need. These dogs are trained to be a 24 hour companions for that patient. They stay velcroed to the patient and alert the household if the patient opens the door to leave the house. They stay with the patient at all times everywhere even out at the store or the movies. If the patient would happen to get out, the dog is trained to find the patient by scent. If you think about it, the bond between the Alzheimer's Patient and the dog would be solid. The therapy part is unbelievable and then you add in the safety issues with a well trained dog. So if you know of anything please email me! The link is above by the painting.

Go with God today. Enjoy the day and the gifts He has given to you so freely. Realize as always the stress that you have you brought into your life, He did not. Let Go and Let God today. Let God be your guide, your full time 24 hour companion. Let God take over your worries, troubles and concerns. Listen for His "bark" to signal danger and let Him be your guide. You will be blessed by your listening.


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 ...

The Marsh... of our lives? Walking with God.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 The Marsh 6 x 12 inches Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   I did two of these paintings about three years ago. They both sold immediately to a Florida Collector. Simple and elegant for a horse painting.  Ephesians 5:1-2 "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma."  One of the biggest challenges in walking with God is trusting Him and not trying to out think Him or to do everything your way. It never works.  The Apostle Paul wrote of his own struggles in Romans 7 .  Romans 7: 22-23 “ So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the ...
