it might have been leftover ramen noodles and cream of wheat...

that clogged the kitchen sink.

oh, but that was yesterday...

so what IS new?

*We traveled (to) Thanksgiving

bearing gifts of

fun holiday soap (and pop).

for the sisters, nieces/cousins.

(mom, I didn't put any in your package as I knew the smell would be too strong)

and just to prepare anyone reading

weary by so MANY reviews ☺

well, this isn't one...

I was just so thankful for the great deal

and they took an extra $10 off!

(someone is in the kitchen having round two of thanksgiving ☺)

*we took the car in to the shop. again.

I'm thankful that I don't normally need to wash spoons in the bathroom sink.

 that we have a vehicle. that doesn't always sound like a jet landing...

with it's wheels about to fall off.

*top four items (because repeats are allowed...smile)

listed during the month of November

at least 6-8 times

in the family thankFULL book

skype

Picky picky

Jesus

Dr. Pepper

(not in any order. ☺)

*enjoyed the creativity of the kids Octopus "stories"

a continuation of...

*had family Christmas pictures taken

*sat in stopped holiday traffic

(or) Christmas "lights" :)

when so many colours

leave

one last pear is hanging on

not a partridge in sight

and the sky is

beautiful.

look.

Psalm 34:45

  I sought the LORD, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame.

*observation: looking to the Lord

is not a one time thing...

must be repeated

each time fear comes

and continued

even if deliverance is not

immediate...or even soon.

and sometimes, maybe "deliverance" is only for a moment?

sort of like the manna.

"time" is different with the Lord, I think.
