The Snow is melting....

After nearly 2 weeks of the icky white stuff, we are having a few warmer days that is melting the ice and snow! It is great to see snow, but I prefer it in pictures or on the TV. Anyway, thank God we did not suffer the ice that Western Ky endured during this recent storm.

More bad news about the "Exploder". Couldn't repair the transmission. Must be replaced to the tune of more than $3 grand installed. Unfortunatley for me, the service that I paid for transmission service, was not performed correctly. In fact, it appears from the fluid that it had never been changed. Be sure to retain the reciepts for such things. Unfortunatley, I did not, and now have nothing to go back to the firm that serviced my vehicle. Such major service items need to be performed by dealer for documentation.


This is not a whiney! Just a statement of what is happening right now.




Actually, tomorrow is a day of celebration. It seems that Nick Whetstone is aging! Next thing you know, he will be getting married. Nick will be 14 on the 8th! He is a.... (what was it, Nick, that you wanted me to say?) O yes, awesome creation! No doubt! Happy Birthday, Nick!



When is the cake gonna be ready?

By the way, if you wanna send a card: Nick Whetstone, 410 Easy Street, Mt Carmel, IL 62863. Make all checks out to Pappaw Whetstone, and you spell the word "thousand". LOL!!!!!!


GLENDA had an awesome week this past week at the store! I am so proud of her! She is a faithful worker!


Pray for Pastor John Brady's 3 year old granddaughter, who was diagnosed with a serious malformation this past week. It affects her ability to communicate, so they are teaching her sign language to communicate. Pastor John is in Minot, ND and is pastor of First Assembly of God.

Also, pray for Sophie, our faithful canine companion for the past 9 years. She has been ill the past two days. Don't laugh at me praying for a dog. I learned to pray for my pets early in life and have had significant healings to my faithful friends.


Gonna run! Have a blessed week end!

Keep the Faith!

CARRY ON!

BRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

It's cold outside! It is near the teens with high winds! We are staying warm on the prairie! What a week! I found out last week that the tranny in the Explorer is needing assistance! What a deal! It has 172,000 miles on it now and I guess it decided that it needs some attention! We are believing for the favor of the Lord to help us get it going again. It always seems to break down when we are struggling to stay afloat! The repair bill is overwhelming but God has been so faithful to us and we are looking forward to His provision during this year!

It has been a very rough week for some of our friends in the Western KY region due to the heavy ice and snow that came last week. Some of our family has been without power for several days, friends have had to evacuate due to the damage that was caused by the storm. I talked with my niece who lives in McCracken County, and she told me about the needs of that area! I also spoke with a pastor friend who has been without power at his home since last Tuesday evening. He indicated that repairs would not come to his location for several more days, maybe even weeks!

I am so blessed! Thank God for his provision.
