After the Holidays....

Hi Everyone!!! Well, the holidays have left us. I hope everyone had good ones. It was good to have our son home with us from Colorado. It was a huge blessing  to have him play guitar with me for our Christmas Eve service. We are so proud of  him and all that he has accomplished over the years. Hopefully, we will be able to visit him out there in Colorado sometime this year.
Kathy's recuperation has been going slow but good. Until New Years weekend when she had to be hospitalized. She had gotten a virus and it got the Leukimia going. She stayed in there for three and a half days so that was good. Her system can't fight any sort of viruses out there. The simple cold will knock her system out. We are believing for her to have a full and complete healing!! And we are not going to let things get us down!!. Yeah, we have our bad days but we are so thankful for all we have.
At this time of  year, we like looking back and seeing all that has happened to us. 2011 was a tough year for sure and this one didn't start off to good!! But, we are excited for all that God is doing in our lives and the opportunities that He has given us!! Just looking at this weather we are having here. Right about now we should have two and a half feet of snow around us. It is raining and in the thirty's. The few inches we have are going away. I have never been a big fan of the snow but this is where we live and we like our four seasons.
I have been doing a lot of studying in the Word lately. Different topics and word studies. Good stuff to get into if you can make the time. I really need to get back to playing my bass guitars more. It has been hard to fit in good practice time with everything going on. But, I just have to rearrange things better.
Our time. We all have the same twenty four hours but we choose to fill it with what ever we want. I always like making a list to go by on my daily notepad but it one thing comes up that is not on the list, I get upset. I have to learn to just chill and do the best I can. Sometimes we make plans in our lives and then our world gets turned upside down and we wonder what happened. We have to take one day at a time and not get uptight when things don't go our way. Easier said than done!! We sometimes have to say "no" to some things so that we can have that quiet time with God, our families, and get some stuff done that we have been putting off. I know that I have to be aware of this all the time. That's why I haven't been updating at all for the blog's. It is interesting how sometimes I can do a lot of "nothing" and wonder where the day has gone!
So, in saying that, I better get going and doing something! Maybe the first thing for me to do is check my list....or look for it.....now where did I put that list??!!

God Bless!
