Rainy Sunday's

It isn't strange to have a rainy Sunday in the PNW but to have one after a week of sunny days, it is just wonderful. I like the rain and I like the rain on Sundays....We went shopping today after a full day of cleaning yesterday. We are preparing to leave by letting go of all the things we have accumulated. Sheesh already...why is it that we keep these things squirreled away in the basement. We haven't even started on the upstairs yet....
I am getting more and more nervous, maybe because it is 8 weeks away. Scott will be in Oregon for two of those and I will be taking my last MA class for two of those as well...that leaves 4 weeks when we are together to do all that we need to do....It will get done, but right now it seems a bit on the impossible side.
Rainy Sundays....keeps us all inside...keeps us mellow. We don't have to deal with the sun guilt that we who live here have to deal with if we stay inside on a sunny day...Blessings on you this day.

Just wondering

It will be interesting when some of these posts are read and I feel like I'm talking to people...right now it seems much like a journal I am hoping someone will find.
As I wonder what I should worry about, God and Mijo tell me, nothing. Matthew 6...I am going to look at the flowers and the birds for awhile. If they are taken care of without worrying, I am sure it is a possibility for me. Heard the passsage twice from Mijo and the Pastor in church this morning, either Mijo told him to use it in the service or God had something to with it...I am not supposed to worry, not at all.
I keep thinking if I don't worry about everything that needs to come together in the next few weeks, if I don't show some stress, somehow I won't be able to strongarm God to move on my behalf. Matthew 6...again..oh you of little faith. So I'm going flower and bird gazing.......

just a prayer

We were praying last and night and it was Nick's turn. ..."And God help us find a home for our home." We could not help but laugh out loud in the middle of the prayer. I am sure God is certain what Nick was asking, no one yet...but someone soon.
Another beautiful day in Lynden, I can't help but think that these wonderful cool days will be missed in the sweltering heat of Sentani...but there are things that will be appreciated in the break of dawn on each tropical morning.

Right now its the details....renting the house, care for the dog/cat, packing....it's in the details. So we begin...Come with...at least in a virtual way.
