He told me tomorrow.   He told me over a triple patty Whataburger and a mess of fries that my studio would be ready to move into tomorrow. I sat there sipping my tea.  "Are you saying I can move back in tomorrow?"  He nodded as he dipped his fries in catsup.  Nope, I do not eat whataburgers. My body does not like them...but I shared some fries. We were on our way to the Home Depot to buy some more glue for the end strips of the flooring that goes up under the baseboard. 

 His fortune cookie said, " Soon you will have a romantic rendezvous."  When we arrived home from his quick lunch and the depot trip, I asked him if I could eat the fortune cookies Lady L brought him. He nodded approval as I cracked it open to read his 'fortune'.  " Soon you will have a romantic rendezvous."   I raised my eyebrows and smiled... tomorrow you say? 
He bought me two new flyswatters from Home Depot, a yellow one and a lime green one. While at the depot he picked up some floor cleaner for my tile floors and two new flyswatters. They are not as good as the older wire ones I have now but they will be fine for Lady L to use as the flies return with the spring temperature next month. Not really romantic...but for Mr. Honey Bunny it was thoughtful!
He told me TOMORROW... I can be back in my studio moving in TOMORROW!!!  I need to go back through my books and make a run to Half Price Books.  I decided I cannot buy many more real books. I had already cleaned out 3/4 of my art books... but not my favorite books from my favorite authors.  So before I can move back in, I have a job ahead of me tonight, sorting and lightening my footprint.  We are cleaning out to open up our lives and our home.  We are uncomplicating our lives.

 Today Lady L was over for breakfast and I was doing a devotional on being 'present' with God. It came out the idea was present and presents tie right in together.  If you are 'present' with God, you are open and ready to receive his gifts and 'presents'.  Since she is homeschooled we did a roll call this morning and every one said  "Present" when their name was called. She really got it. The bible verse was " This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24

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 ...
