Good Evening!

Lately I have been chipping away at clutter. It hasn't all been fun but it is worth it to get rid of things we aren't really using etc. In the midst of that, all the other day to day tasks.

We have had several days now of sunshine and temps in the 40s. It makes for a sea of mud outside the front door and down the driveway. I wondered if it would work to use skis to get down the driveway. But even though we've had some warm weather the sledding hill behind our house is still snow covered. It faces north and the snow just seems to stick. So we still have kids up here sledding nearly everyday.

I got a good report the other day from my doctor. The most recent blood test is showing improvement in the deficiencies I had. We have been waiting for that and it seems my body is finally moving in the right direction for my immune system to start working correctly. Praise God for that! We will follow-up in a few weeks again.

As I think of a friend of ours here...I am really sad tonight. It seems this one in particular from the family, has turned their back on God. It was heart wrenching as I heard that in our conversation on the phone today. The last week has been really hard as we walked beside them but this was.....I have no words really to describe it. I just cried out to God to have mercy and soften hearts. We can only place these dear friends in God's hands and pray that God would move in a mighty way.

Thanks to you all for your prayers, we really need them.

Praise God Roxane, I hadn't visited your blog for awhile, so glad to hear that your cancer is GONE, Praise God. When Bruce talked to Jim we sensed your discouragement but know your heart... Keep trusting - we'll keep praying.
