We made a mad dash to the vet last night to board Paddy. We have a round trip into Dallas and back and he is still suffering from his allergies.  We had decided the vet was the best place for him.  The housesitter can enjoy fishing and keeping up with the violets and the birds inside and out. He is one of the best we have had with the exception of Vicky.  She would be here if Paddy was here. I hope he remembers my inside violets.

This morning we are attending a political gathering in Mt Pleasant.  I do not address politics often in my blog and only go so far to say I am very conservative and that probably tells you enough. The Republican Party is having many state level leaders in and we are guests of our local sheriff and his wife. After the morning meeting with speakers, we head into Dallas for our daughter-in-law's PHD graduation from University of Texas in Dallas. A celebration dinner is planned after the ceremony. Sunday will find us enjoying the "Tink" short for Tinkerbelle aka our granddaughter, and Monday back into Dallas for an early morning appt before heading back home.  So blogging will be minimal over the next few days but my trusty rusty laptop travels with me. GO MAC GO!

I believe firmly in prayer before travel for anyone.  God goes before us to make our way safe and our travel successful. This simple affirmation puts a warmth in you knowing that He leads the way.  We are immediately aware that He will guide us as we prepare for the trip and as we make the journey. He will bring us safely home.

No matter what is ahead, we must remember there is no place that He is not. His presence is with us through high waters and storms as well as through the desert. Keep the vision of His Grace leading you and know you are  safe.

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 ...

Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Mid Summer Nights Gathering Good People Series #2 32 x 48 inches Oil on Canvas.  SHHH..Do not tell, but I am done.  It may take two years for this painting to cure out. It has to head to Mirada Fine Art in about three or four weeks... meanwhile it will be banished to the room with the dehumidifier in it.  Stay tuned at Mirada Fine Art with Steve Sonnen for more details about what is happening to this "crowd" from my Good People Series.  In fact, drop Steve an email and ask to be added to the mailing list for this special gathering.  Good food, good friends and good art.   What more could you want? Email Steve here.   Tell him to put you on the list for  the Special June Showing. Laurie Pace A Texas Artist Golden Pond Studio My Blog          My Website     ...
