June 11. Another full morning. The smell of skunk drove me out of bed at 6:15. Washed and dressed. Fixed a lemon drink. Prepared eggs to go with Daddy’s pancakes. Had quiet time and breakfast. More prayer time with a brief time of crocheting. Daddy went off to A+ with Christy’s car. (Their computers and a test drive didn’t reveal any serious problem.) I went out to get some fresh air and exercise and spent more time praying while walking. Came back in and started making this week’s soup—napa cabbage, celery, carrot, and lentil soup today, with some ground turkey. Got out a new roll of paper towels. Put strawberries in to soak. Fixed a snack of strawberries and yogurt. Ready to sit down. Daddy and I checked Acts chapter 18, and I got corrections made and then set it up in the print file. Also set up English chapter 19 in the print file, ready for Pidgin to come beside it. Crocheted for a few minutes after that and then had lunch. Crocheted a few more minutes before nap. After nap, I got journal notes into the file to send to Connie, transferred pictures to the computer and edited them, pureed the soup I had made and put on to cook this morning, got an e-mail ready with journal notes and pictures to send to Connie, and wrote the May ministry update. This evening, I painted and crocheted a while. A thunder storm came up, but it wasn’t too close to us. We did get some rain, and we had some power surges so thought the power was going to go out, but it didn’t. Christy and Connie did lose power for a short time. The book of Judges concludes thus, the exact sad words as found in chapter 17 verse 6, “In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.” Judges 21:25 June 12. The rain God sent last night brought some nice cool weather along with it. Even at mid-afternoon, it was still only 65º out. It was going on 10:30 before we got to the girls’ house. There were two loads of wash to do first. Put some clothes in the dryer and hung up a few on hangers. Daddy remade his bed, as I had washed his sheets and pillow cases and then dried them. Then we loaded up the car and headed for WalMart to get a couple food items and some allergy filters. After that, we went on over to girls’ house, but weren’t there long before going out to Sandy’s. We had promised Connie we would take her to Sandy’s this week, and she was ready to go. So off we went. Spent quite a while looking around there but didn’t buy much. Bought a few knickknacks to finish filling up Christy’s little knickknack shelf and bought some yarn and buttons so I can help Connie make little purses for her sale stuff. It was already around 12:15 when we got home—time for lunch and nap. After nap, I got out the squash we bought this morning and put it in the oven to cook for my supper. Then I finished the update letters for those who receive updates by mail, added an acknowledgment on each one, and printed them out. Went to print out the envelopes for mailing them and discovered there were only six left. Guess they’ll have to wait until we buy more envelopes. As soon as I had eaten supper, I started cleaning up the kitchen so I could do the dishes. What a pile of dishes! Thankful to get those done. Ready for sit-down time now. After we got back to the prophets’ chamber this evening, I crocheted three gold flowers to attached to the towel I had crocheted. “For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.” Isaiah 57:15 May we consider that our God is high and lofty and holy, yet He will dwell with those who are of a contrite and humble spirit.
