LOL!
OMG, TiaPam - how did you ever find a graphic that looks exactally like what I made today (except for the lack of walnuts.)
I didn’t even want my dinner, tonight, looking at those brownies, sitting there in the pan - just begging to be ‘chosen’ to munch down on!
One good thing to remember - it is “dark” chocolate - so it is the ‘healthy’ kind. (Yeah............so is carrot juice.) LOL!
Just finished dinner a short time ago: Chichen rice bowl with teriyaki sauce and a chocolate brownie!!! YUM!YUM! Finally got to see the horses!!
They should be called “Shaggy” Don’t you think?
Goodnight you all! See you tomorrow, Lord willing! ((Hugs))
Sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe you can dream about that brownie!!
You all come back, you here?? Nighty, night!!
No, but if you got a certain number of homeruns, which were points, you could win a stuffed toy or some cheap watch....LOL! I just plain old loved playing the baseball game...
Hey sweetie! so good to see your post.
Awe on fish...do you have other pets now?
where are you living/working? CPA related?
I dont get around as often as I used to either.
Oh my that looks wonderful....
Hi Miss Nan.. just catching up on your posts & pix.. and of your friend Carrie Okie.
I too observe the Sabbath.
thinking of all the good past times together. Haven’t seen Dutchess since we all met in Columbus 2 summer’s ago. I stayed at their house and we all had the best time. Mama Bear/Jeff were in town. I see a rare post from her on occasion. Her mom & pup’s deaths were very difficult
Hey, Dr Tulip!!
How have you been?
I have been busy. I’m sure that you’ve had nothing to do all summer. :^)
I’ve missed seeing you on my comments page. We always enjoyed hearing about your trips with Winston to see your parents.
Hope you stop by more often to say HI!!!
Hello everyone.
Did I make it back before everyone went to bed?
We registered Marissa in her new school this morning. The principal took us to show us her room. She also introduced us to the Art Teacher.
Marissa was starting to feel kinda scared but I think going there this morning eased some of her jitters. It is tough leaving a school and friends after 6 years.
This afternoon, I met Jim and Chris at our attorney’s office to discus this new law suit. This suit will change some of the ways that we post threads but we are hopeful that we can get it behind us with not too much damage.
I’m sure that in the next few days, Jim will get more info posted so everyone can see what we are up against.
Hope everyone had a lovely Warm Fuzzy Wednesday.
In March 2009, a 62-year-old woman was charged with stealing more than $73,000 from her church in the state of Washington. When the detectives interrogated her, she told them: Satan had a big part in the theft. It sounds like she was saying that the devil made her do it.
Satan may have played a role in her choices, but she has some faulty thinking about temptation and sin. The devil tempts believers, but he doesnt make us sin. James tells us that God isnt to blame either: Let no one say when he is tempted, I am tempted by God; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone (James 1:13). He is good and holy.
So who is to blame for our sin? James says, Each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed (v.14). Just as a fisherman uses bait to lure his prey, so our own evil, unchecked desires lead to giving in to temptation and sin.
When we disobey God by sinning, lets not shift the blame or justify our actions with the faulty the devil made me do it theology. Instead, lets take full responsibility for our actions, confess our sins to a gracious and forgiving Father, and pursue right living again.
Dolly, did Lori lose one of her doggies? I sure must have missed that. I knew all about her MIL, etc.
