December 31. When I went to sit down for prayer this morning, I discovered that I must have left my prayer notebook at C&C’s house. So I opened up the notebook in the computer file and used that as my guide this morning. Had eggs with deli meat and cheese for breakfast, something different as I am pretty much out of veggies. Later, I started cleaning out the cupboards and deciding what goes to the girls, what goes in the trash, what can go with us, etc. I was thankful to get all the updates acknowledged that will need to be printed and mailed. Hope to print those in the morning and get them out in the mail. Before we left for Ruby Tuesday, I got a good start on organizing journal notes for Connie. Met a pastor friend at noon for lunch at Ruby Tuesday. Enjoyed a good meal and a good hour or so of fellowship with him. When we got back to the apartment, we got ready for nap. After nap, I finished organizing the journal notes, then transferred and edited pictures, and finally sent notes and pictures off to Connie. Spent more time weeding out things and packing after that until supper time and also after supper. Had Lewis take a couple pictures of me with the green hat on, then transferred and edited those and sent them off to Connie too. Shortly after supper, I washed the dishes. After a while, Cilla called and we talked for just a short time for the last time before Daddy and I leave. After that we listened to a message by Adrian Rogers on grace from Romans chapter 4. Adam’s sin was put on me (imputed) (Romans 5); my sin was put on (imputed to) Jesus (II Corinthians 5:21); Jesus righteousness was imputed to me. God will never again impute sin to the account of a man whose sin is forgiven. Also worked a bit on crocheting this evening. January 1, 2019. The beginning of a new year. Praise the Lord for all His blessings and goodness and mercy throughout the year 2018! The first important matter of business after arriving at our daughters’ house was to check the ink levels in the printer because it had been doing uneven and striped printing. All the colors were low, so I filled up all the ink wells. Then I did a check on the print nozzle, and it needed cleaning. Took care of that job and then checked the alignment. Everything seemed to be fine after the cleaning. At last, I was ready to print out the updates and get them ready to mail. (Of course, the mail wouldn’t go out until tomorrow because today was a holiday, but I needed to get them all ready because tomorrow will be busy doing other work.) Printed those and then got out eleven envelopes and addressed them. Turned the letters over to Connie after that to fold, stuff, put return address labels on, stamp, and seal. We were short a few stamps, but Daddy plans to get them tomorrow. When that task was done, I got a wee start on a letter to our daughters. But it was soon lunch time, so had a bite (well, maybe a few bites) to eat. After nap, I continued working on the letter to our daughters. In the evening, I did the dishes; and later we enjoyed a nice Skype conversation with Martha. After we got back to the apartment, I finished the letter to C&C, Daddy proofread it, and I e-mailed that off to them. It was already going on 11:00, but I knew tomorrow would have enough worries of its own. “14Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him. 15And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.” Mark 15:14,15 Pilate knew Jesus was innocent, but he feared the people more than he feared God. So sad!
