SCATTERED..
...is the way I'm feeling. This has to be done...that has to be done...this should be done that way... "Be still, and know that I am God!"
I heard our newest grandchild's heartbeat last night. This precious child of God is 15 weeks old, to be born 9-9-09...healthy and anxiously awaited! Therefore, the heading should be BLESSED BY GOD'S GRACE. We have to stop and listen to what He says...even if it is just in a whisper...or a loud voice...just listen.

APPOINTMENTS AND DEADLINES
March 7, 2009 ~ Saturday
These last two weeks have been full of appointments between work...with the results being great...mammogram, echo-cardiogram, bone density scan. Waiting on the MRI results for the right knee, the pain being off and on since last April. During the summer I had to have my leg straight, whether sitting, standing or lying. Right now...no biggy, pain-wise, but am always conscious of how I step, in case it gives out and I have to catch myself.
And, these next weeks during Lent will be very busy also with getting ready for Maundy Thursday Seder and all the worship services during Holy Week. THEN, two weeks after Easter will be Pastor Maxwell's installation at St. Peter! Tomorrow he is being ordained at his home church in CA. The parsonage is almost ready for Pastor and his wife to arrive, only last minute cleaning waiting to be done for the most part.
Today...I'm cleaning from top to bottom...fan, blinds, floors...moving furniture.. .with a wood stove (LOVE THAT HEAT!)it is VERY VERY dusty!!
If anyone knows how to save the layout when moving pictures, let me know. It never saves, just says it is and doesn't finish.

IT'S FRIDAY!!!!
February 27, 2009 ~ Friday
Does that mean I'm ready for the weekend!!! This week just has been busy with work and appointments in between so a relaxing weekend will be wonderful. I'm thinking a good Alaskan book and some clam chowder for part of it...
In the last two days we've had about 7 inches of snow again...just when the road where I 'cross' was bare! Watching the few flakes this morning I again was amazed at God's creation! Each one perfect, each one different...and, if He pays that much attention to each little flake, how much more does He pay attention to each and every one of us!!! So much so, that He sent His only Son to die...and rise again...for our sins. The Lenten season...pondering on how we can't save ourselves no matter what we do...pondering on Jesus who took all those sins, of the whole world, so that we might be with Him in heaven when we die. That is SO awesome!!!

ICY ROADS AND PHONE CALLS
February 6, 2009 ~ Friday
Icy roads...for the second time this winter I had to back up half a mile on our trail at 5am...the car just was NOT going to make the top of the hill. And it was only another 20 feet!!! So, I called the school and told them I couldn't cross this morning. Tried again later morning, but a no-go...so called 'the lunch boss' to tell him I couldn't make it, but one of my co-workers was nice enough to send her husband after me. The trails still don't have gravel on them and it's been raining/snowing off and on all day. BUT...a blessing in disguise because I could make some needed phone calls and not have to worry about stopping to go to work. Also, installed Trend Micro on my laptop...twice, because the first one couldn't after 30 min. since I needed an installer first. All this = headache; HOWEVER, I received a hand held massager for Christmas and that did the trick for my neck/head.
The fog has been terrible, but, there again, another blessing since the trees/fences/shrubs were all bathed in white. Well, some of them were only half white, a tell-tale sign of which way the fog headed.
Since I didn't make it in to church today I need to go before worship on Sunday and move boxes...maybe even unload some of them, organizing the office a bit better. And, still have to move the computer/moniter back into it's home, along with the printer...and then the copier. Kinda like the story of the man with a goose, feed, and a fox that has to go across the river, but could only carry two at a time...OR...moving vehicles from field to field with only 2 drivers. Now that brings back good memories of my teen years, helping my uncle in the grain fields.
