June 19. Another cool and mostly cloudy day with rain early this morning and attempts at rain early afternoon. We were thankful for a little sunshine late afternoon. Made a few pancakes this morning so Daddy could have something for snack the next couple days. It made a couple more than I expected so I ate a couple of them for breakfast. Tomas preached in lotu this morning, continuing his teaching on Abraham and Isaac and the various ways in which they pictured God and Christ. He has done a good job on that teaching. After lotu, Bonita washed clothes, and I finished prayer time, made the students’ copy of the history test, and made a chart to print out with English measures. The students will need that for their first few math lessons when the new school term begins. Afterward, Daddy and I spent a couple hours checking Hebrews. Praise the Lord for His help in completing both chapters 4 and 5. After dinner, we got the clothes in, made up the bed, hung up a few dry clothes in the closet, and hung up a few damp clothes on the lines in the schoolroom. Then we enjoyed our nap. This afternoon, I wrote a couple e-mails. Wanted to get the corrections made for Hebrews too, but didn’t get to do much else as there were interruptions with people who came to see us, and the computer battery ran down before I could get back to work. Then I took down the clothes that had been drying in the schoolroom; and Daddy and I took all the suitcases out from under the bed, dusted them off, and put them on top of the closet. Pulled a couple boxes out, too, and put them in the bottom of the closet. Now if Matthew comes next week when the school kids are here, he can put plywood up in the bedroom without having to move all that stuff around. Daddy sent and received e-mail while we were eating supper. Praise the Lord for a good connection. Did dishes and had bath right after supper as the air was getting chilly already. Then I finally got the corrections made in Hebrews and wrote in my journal. Brad called while Daddy was washing and said that the only day next week they could come get him would be Tuesday, but the only day they could bring him back would be the same week Friday. Well, that wouldn’t do—only 2 1/2 days to shop. But, he said, they could come get him this Friday and bring him home next Friday. So looks like day after tomorrow, Daddy will go out. He will need to find out now if he can get housing starting on Friday rather than next Monday. This evening, I did quite a stack of printing—Bible lessons and quizzes, music lessons and a quiz, history test, new attendance sheet and grading sheets, tables of English measures, and shopping list. Then I worked on Matthew until lights out time so I can get it ready for printing. “I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” Psalm 37:25 Yes, truly, according to His promise, God has never forsaken us, and we have never had to beg for bread. What a caring and faithful God we serve. June 20. A chilly, mostly cloudy day again with bits of sunshine now and then. After breakfast and quiet time, I helped Daddy a bit with packing, wrote a short letter to Kathy B and put it in an e-mail to be sent off later to C&C. Wrote some math problems on the chalkboard for the students’ first math lesson coming up on Monday. This afternoon, I cut up half of a popo. Didn’t want to cut up the whole thing because there won’t be any fridge running to keep it cold after today. Daddy and I had some for snack with banana and dates after we had checked Hebrews chapter 6 together. We are thankful for the Lord’s help once again. After snack, I made the corrections in the Hebrews computer file. Also worked on the Matthew file, trying to get that set up so we can print copies for all those who will be working on checking it. This evening, I set up another song to print for the students to learn and printed them plus a couple songs, and printed another Sunday school lesson with memory verse reminders in case Mike needs another before Daddy gets back from town. While I was washing up, Daddy took the computer into the schoolroom and got a good connection for sending and receiving e-mails. Praise the Lord!
