More Water Today.

 More Water Today.

 

Yes, both bottled and that which comes straight out of the nearest clouds! Have set three bottles on the table next to my chair where reading takes place most often, but then watched the “flash flood” of rain come down earlier this morning. We got plenty of flashes and rumbles during that time, as well. But then, it is the end of September in Texas. However, Carol Thonton tells me that our area is so blessed to get rain while West Texas stands high and dry without a drop. Had to suggest that this much rain in West Texas might create some humongous sink holes with all the punctured landscapes out there in oil country. Whether the holes are drilled sideways or straight down, those holes eventually will fill up with either salt water, oil, or natural chemicals from around the wells. Sad to see that happening.

 

Jennifer always reminds me to “drink, drink, drink,” so the old woman is truly trying to do as told. Not having any energy is not my idea of fun, but here we go with the gripes again! Sorry.

 

The swelling in my knee has gone down enough that the kneecap is actually visible and can be manipulated to some degree. One of the physical therapy moves includes moving it from side to side, but until this weekend, that has not been possible. Weird. Whoever thinks about moving one’s kneecap? Oh well.

 

Have been re-reading a book about some older women who love looking through houses that have to be cleaned and sorted before they are to be sold. It has been fun reading the book again even if knowing the outcome has remained with me. Sometimes books are worth re-reading and this has been one. This one is called “Hattie Gets a Gun” from the Hattie Moon mystery series. Neat

 

Patty intended to watch all the network stuff about the Charlie Kirk assassination. It has been making her cry, but she refuses to get depressed. We agreed that Satan is doing his best to cause havoc and more hatred all over not only our country but all over the entire world. This Monday night begins the Feast of Trumpets—symbolizing the return of Christ to straighten out this mess and remove the injustice in this world. As a Christian, what we can do is call on our Father in Heaven and ask for His intervention.

 

Meanwhile, Lexi has surgery on Thursday in Cook’s Hospital. Tami Yonts and her husband will need to make decisions about the cancer that has again complicated life for them. Let us pray for the surgeons and for the necessary decisions in their lives. May God give them peace and comfort.

 

Where it is in our hands to be kind, let us do so both willingly and with generosity.

 

Rest well, my friends. You are loved.
