We are moving out of our cozy little apartment on Second Street and venturing as far away from home as Pendleton Oregon.  Our new home is a 31' airstream trailer.  We will miss our friends and family dearly.  But it is only for a time, and we are moving in the direction God keeps pointing us.  Eddie has been offered a good job down there, and we are not too far from people we love.  So we are excited for a little change and hopefully a big adventure!

"I trust in the steadfast love of God forever and ever. I will thank you forever, because you have done it."-Psalm 52:8-9

Spring Break is almost over but I...

• read 2 books and am working on the third "Going Postal" by Terry Pratchett.
• went through my closet and "deep cleaned" my kitchen cupboards
• got my paints out and tried to paint, though they all ended up looking like a 12 year old did it so I gave up.
• went out to lunch with my favorite friends
• watched it rain, snow and shine.
• watched Castle, Foyles War and Monk.
• made blueberry scones and no-bake cookies (half of which I had to give to my neighbor because I stole some substantial ingredients in the process of making them)
• laughed so hard on Saint Patrick's day when Eddie told all his Irish jokes.
• went on long walks with Eddie.

Over all, it was a good week. 

"Faith is the art of holding on to things your reason has once accepted in spite of your changing moods"

-CS Lewis

Thoughts for a cold day...

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

 -Hebrews 11:1

For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?  But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.

 -Romans 8:24-25

I just could not stand studying any longer, so I pulled out my paints and cheered up the living room decor.
