An Attitude of Gratitude.

The only people with whom you should try to get even are those who have helped you. ~John E. SouthardI am grateful beyond measure ~ To God for supplying my need; to Liddy for hassleing it when I'd given up; that on the last post day before we went away & the mail stops for our long weekend the magizines arrived. Now I get to take them away with me. Thank you Liddy!


They arrived in a big box to much excitement. I actually didn't even get to open my own parcel. Ditz & Liddy rushed to get her work knife to slit the wrapping & delved into the styrofoam.I had a lovely letter from Wisdom's Gate explaining their new proceedure for international subscribers & nearly 2 years worth of back issues! God is so good. It was almost worth the wait. :)

After the initial excitement Ditz wasn't so sure about this. After all, we're going away. She expects my attention & here I am with all this reading material. She suspects I will be tucked away somewhere warm & cosy reading for dear life & what will she do?


If I was sensible [not my strong suite :)], I would save them for the coming term when once again I will be found waiting all over the country on Ditz & her music but I have been without them for so long I really don't think I can wait that long & will greedily devour them before term starts. Short post. I have all these magazines waiting on my attention.

Have a wonderful time visiting with your Mum. I was supposed to go back to St Louis at the end of my knee surgery recovery time, to visit my oldest daughter Jennifer and the 2 grand-daughters for their birthdays (both in Feb). Who knows now? It'll all work out in due course, I can't control anything anyway so why not go with the flow? Enjoy your reading materials! I took a lot of magazines with me on our recent trip but only read one of them! I spent most of my time in the car crocheting a baby blanket for Jennifer's Bun in the Oven.

SO glad these came. Lovely quote as well.

Hey, I'd be saving them so we'd make interesting housemates. :]
