Thanks...and thanks for supporting her daddy and all the troops.

She’ll be 6 years old on the 22nd of January. She’s just growing up so fast!

I understand ...I cannot sit and post..too much pain.

I urge you to invest in a laptop and wireless set up if possible. My laptop sits on a tray turned sideways on the bed so it can get air circulation..
The laptop screen is almost 3 feet from me.

My mouse works on a small pillow ..my keyboard is on my lap/legs..and it makes all the difference.
It took awhile for me to adjust to the new set up several years ago..but it works well for me.

You could set the laptop on a positioned side table by your sofa or Lazyboy and get some relief. The wireless mouse and keyboard make it possible to post with your feet up.
I don’t spend money dining out, going on vacation or anything to entertain myself except cableTV and the internet...so I make myself as comfortable as possible .
;o)
“Laptops” are too heavy for one’s lap...and I cannot use the touch pad to copy and post graphics anyway.

I keep mine plugged in and rarely use the battery feature
(unless I accidently unplug it..LOL).

I went to my daughter’s in Harlingen for Christmas, and think of you when I pass through the King Ranch area. You should run out in the road and say hi to me!! LOLOL

Lol, that would be Incredible to Live at that Amazing Place! : D
I Looked it Up on the Internet, and it is Filled with Wildlife of All Kinds, Pretty Deer, and Beautiful Birds.
I Loved Reading about that Place.

Somehow I got the impression that you lived around there. Sorry about that. It takes about 45 minutes to drive through that area and until recent years there was almost nothing along the highway! Hugs back to you Kitty.

I Love that Pretty Hugs Graphic, Dear Meg!
The Lightweight Keyboard and Mouse Sound Perfect.
I Pray the Heating Pad will Help your Back Feel Better Soon, my Sweet FRiend.
Mine Seems to Hurt Less when the Weather Turns Warm; Spring will be Very Welcome.

I Call my Place 'The King's Ranch' after our King Jesus Christ, so the Name Sounds Very Similar to the King Ranch.

(((((God Bless, Dear FRiend!)))))

Ready For Glory

January 19, 2013

On March 1, 1981, preacher and Bible commentator D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones lay on his deathbed. From 1939 to 1968, he had served as the pastor of London’s Westminster Chapel. Now at the end of his life, Lloyd-Jones had lost the ability to speak. Indicating that he did not want any more prayers for his recovery, he wrote on a piece of paper: “Do not hold me back from glory.”

Because life is precious, it can be hard to let our loved ones go when the time comes for them to depart this earth and go to heaven. And yet God has set a time when He plans to call us home. Psalm 116:15 tells us, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.”

When Paul saw that death was near, he was encouraged by what awaited him in heaven: “Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing” (2 Tim. 4:8).

No matter where Christians are in life’s journey, their ultimate destination is to “be with Christ, which is far better” (Phil. 1:23). This should give us confidence in facing life’s challenges and comfort when other believers leave us for that glorious home Christ has prepared.

The glories of heaven await
All those who believe in God’s Son;
The trials of this life will fade
When we see the Heavenly One. —Sper
Life’s greatest joy is the sure hope of heaven.

Read: 1 Corinthians 12:14-26

But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it. —1 Corinthians 12:24
Bible in a Year:
Genesis 43-45; Matthew 12:24-50

Happy Dogurday-Caturday, Meg!

No sun here, but also not cold so that is good!

My doggies are napping.

Cheers

This is why some of us have lost (temporarily, I hope) some of our graphics out of Fotki. This was in their blog.....

“Why some of your photos are not being displayed...

Dear Fotkins, We know that many of you wrote to us about photos not being displayed. Here is the situation: As you all know, at the end of October Hurricane Sandy struck heart of New York City. Estimated losses, due to damage and business interruption, are estimated at $66 billion, which would make it the second-costliest Atlantic hurricane, behind only Hurricane Katrina. Many data centers in New York were flooded, and they still are not operational. Our data center was hit but only partially. It worked on generators for a while, but it was on. All your photos and videos are safe. Because of economic reasons we were forced to partially move our servers out. We are moving them to a new data center. We took down most of old servers, where mostly older photos and videos were stored. Please don’t panic! We are trying to bring the offline servers back online in a month or so. We will keep you updated as we are work on finding a new home for them. You, your family and friends are still able to enjoy your recently uploaded photos and videos and most of the old ones. We know you miss your older photos but they will return! Now is the season to make and capture lots of new memories! Late, but not too late, the whole Fotki team wants to wish you a wonderful year 2013! May it be filled with joy and successes! Always Yours, Fotki Team”
