Finally, the sunshine!

Freckles came home night before last, so I nabbed him and kept him and Hazel in the garage through the -14 F weather last night.   Even though the sun is now up, it is only -7 F right now.  All the animals can go out when the temperature gets up to the 0 F degrees.  According to the forecast, we are not looking at any more sub-zero temps in the next 10 days!  Thank God.  It is way too cold.

Those poor people in the South and back East that are getting hit with the snow!  We need spring.  Apparently not too quickly, as they will all float away in the flood from the melting snow.

Last night I had the weirdest dream.  I went outside and there were hair-like "worms" all over the ground, and they would bite you, if you came in contact.  The bite was very painful and everyone was staying inside to avoid these hair-like creatures.  They weren't really worms, more like semi-long strands of hair.  But I remember thinking there was land that they weren't in, too.  Very strange. 

As soon as the weather warms up today, I will be taking a road trip up to get Kat.   I am glad we have sunshine! 

Here is a picture of Little Black trying to see the people inside the tv.  Cats are soooo funny.

Little Black is cautious and smart.  Super Fuzz jumps right into anything, without a single thought!
They do have fun together, though.

The big thing now is keeping them out of the Turtle's tank.  I don't think they can get in there, but then I don't trust them to not be able to figure it out.

God is good.  He is also merciful.  We need the mercy and help from our God, who loves us so.  We have a nation in turmoil and what we need now is His Peace.

Another Cold Day

We aren't having the storms that the other parts of the country are having, but we are having a cold spell.  A high today of 8 and the nights in the minuses!  Those poor animals stuck out in the cold--especially those without shelter, or adequate shelter!  It is amazing, though, how God takes care of his animals.  Our outside kitties look like huge fur balls!  They are so warm and cuddly.  I stuck Hazel in the garage, so she would not be out in the bitterness of the winter, but Freckles is too busy out chasing mice to worry about the cold!!  Since he does have shelter, I don't worry too much.

So, today, I will sit in my rocker, lined with an electric throw, and work on the computer.   If something comes on tv, that would be nice too.   I can't believe how God has made the simple things in our lives so very enjoyable!

Please Lord--Bring us Warm Weather!

Got all ready to head up to help Kathleen paint.  Walked out to the pickup and stopped dead in my tracks!   The wind that howled all night brought another day of road closure!  Shoveling is out of the question, the drifts are hard packed and there are three big banks of snow on the drive!  

Its kind of like the times we are in, as our legislature introduces bills this legislative session on whether or not to inform parents of their children getting an abortion, and, also, the bills on physician assisted suicide and the suicide predator bill.   Death has got to be the winter of our lives.

Thank God for His great love that there will be a new life for us--the promised life of a new Heaven and a new earth!  No pain, no tears, no death!  The Lord Himself will be with us and be our light.  Lord come soon!  How do those babies endure the terrible, terrible pain of being killed in the womb?  How do the elderly endure the grief of hearing loved ones and trusted medical care tell them they can end their life, to drink the potion.

So much misery, pain and suffering that is done in the name of compassion.  Lord Come Soon!
