“Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle.” ― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
Just sat on the floor in the entry hall today with Terry sharing about the finding joy again.  We will be spending more time over the next few weeks watching our life and tweaking things each day.  Not sure who we are right now. It is a puzzle.
There seems to be constant distractions that keep us from laughing and playing coy with each other and really getting in deep again to where we were about 10 years ago. OUCH... for me the last six years it has been FACEBOOK distraction.  Egads that soaks so much time out of life.  I have been fortunate to spend much less time on it but still love seeing pictures of nieces and nephews and staying abreast with my cousins.  Thinking I will reconstruct my page to be more private with only close family and friends and then maybe only visit it once or twice a week.
Television was one of Terry's old distractions.  He is not able to watch as much now as he spend most of his day trying to save things around the house from total failure. He has not built models in years and I know he wants to do that again...but we need to find things to do both together and apart that makes us feel satisfied with life... and let us live and enjoy life as God intended. 
Spending time with those that are important to you is at the top of our list... and there at the top is my mother. This summer we will celebrate her 87th birthday.  God is truly awesome.
Meanwhile we will work on our puzzle, sort the pieces and see if we can put it back together with God's help. 
If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.  James 1:5New International Version (NIV)

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 ...
