3rd week of Advent–Gaudette Sunday– https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EeSeeWMnlA We are halfway through the Advent season–REJOICE!
The foot, swelling going down as long as I don’t wear a shoe and keep it elevated. The hand is tingly today, no real pain, just a pins and needles thing. Cpap doing what is it suppose to do. I still hate it but I do it. If my body was a car I’d be looking for a new one, this one has too many miles.
Work continues on the upstairs re-no. Hard to believe the difference it is going to make up there. Lots left to do but we are on track.
We’ve redone many homes over the past 50 yrs. This one has taken the longest and our zip to get things done has dwindled. That may have something to do with our ages but has also had lots to do with the things that needed repairing before we could even think about remodeling as we generally do it ourselves. That nightlight creates quite the light smear, doesn’t it? Behind that door are two more rooms that need to be done. Luckily, only the ceilings, flooring removal, and wall painting. Slow and steady wins the race. This little area will make for a good library/TV area with room for a futon should we need extra sleeping space. All photos will be posted before and after once things are finished.
Today Bacci speaks to “Consolations from God” found on page 502 of his book. Men and animals have some power to comfort and console us but it is nothing compared to the comfort we receive from God and it cannot satisfy our hearts. Worldly honors can also intoxicate our pride and self-conceit, but it doesn’t last very long. Heavenly consolations may sometimes decrease or disappear, in these trials, we can often get through with patience and resignation. Peace of mind will soon return if we stay focused on God.
Know you are prayed for.
