What seems more likely, in face, is that man invented God to sanctify the dominion that he had usurped for himself over the cow and the horse".  Milan Kundera, The Unbearable LIghtness of Being. Well, I chucked over the quote, but do not believe for an instant, that I do not believe t

" Wendelin Van Draanen, Flipped This week has caught me behind most of the week. Terry decided we would help get Chunky Monkey back and forth to school. Trying to wrestle an 18 month old is always fun. Usually by the time we were home from dropping him off
A Pair of Cows Farm Animal Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace 18 x 27 inches of Thick Oil Paint. Contact me for information: Laurie We completed our Medications class and only have one more class to renew for our Foster License. We saw some of the couples last night that were in our classes a year ago, also renewing their license with updating classes. She had given birth to a baby 8 months ago and had her little one with her. I am thinking they had three other children at home and they are doing fostering. She laughed and said they were licensed 5 weeks ago and they were called with in hours to take a brand new infant from the hospital. SO she has a new baby at home along with her four! THAT is not what we will do! We will offer respite care to foster homes that need it as well as foster adopt a teenager. God is in control on this one and you better believe Terry and I are walking on the water with Jesus with this one! There are moments of pure panic, WHAT ARE WE DOING??? The

AFTERNOON SHOWER Watercolor by Laurie Pace SOLD I am blogging swiftly so I can get to my easel. Yesterday was NOT a productive painting day! Hopefully today I can get into an earlier pace. HOUSE UPDATE: I am still dancing the happy dance that my bathroom light switch works now. I no longer have to screw a bulb in and out to have light! Terry installed a new faucet in our sink in the Master Bath and YEAH it works. Before water trickled out with not even enough to wet your tooth brush. This is a strange house but it is coming around! On the diet side I continue to hear from folks that love weight watchers and those that like South Beach. My daughter does Weight Watchers, but lives on TV dinners. I cannot do that. I am a fresh food freak that prefers everything to be natural. RARELY anything from a can, and if it does, it has less than five ingredients. I truly like the RICE Diet, but my life is too complicated to have to think! I walked 8000 steps yesterday and did my tummy h
