God Bless Our Troops

First of all, Happy Birthday to my baby sister, Judi!
The temps are up today and there is some hope that maybe spring is on the way. I can't believe how far behind I am on everything! I thought once I was done at the school, I would be swimming in free time, but that hasn't been the case. And I don't know where the time is going. I've only made 2 batches of soap since January. Of course, I really don't need to since everything is stocked, but still. And the workroom is still a wreck. I need to set up some kind of schedule.

The plan today is to meet Kelli and get their phone set up to connect as modem on their laptop. Then the Tweetlebugs are coming over. Tonight I HAVE to get the state tax done.

Word of the day:
Thursday after Ash Wednesday
Gospel
Lk 9:22-25


Jesus said to his disciples:
"The Son of Man must suffer greatly and be rejected
by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes,
and be killed and on the third day be raised."

Then he said to all,
"If anyone wishes to come after me, he must deny himself
and take up his cross daily and follow me.
For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it,
but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.
What profit is there for one to gain the whole world
yet lose or forfeit himself?"

God bless our troops!

I love lent....It always makes me feel so much closer to God...The stations of the cross seem to give me more meaning every year....I also like all the lenten soups offered by each church on different days and the KC's fish fries every Friday....God Bless you and yours.
Hugs
Sue

After he retired, my dad commented that he doesn't know how he everhad the time to work. Staying busy is good for you, though.
