Hi Amy and everyone else~
Been busy with work... three jobs at two employers that gives me between 40 - 50 hours a week.. would be great if not minimum wage, but after being out of the work force for so many years, taking care of mom, employers aren’t too eager to even talk with you , yet alone hire you
My pup Josy died in Dec & Toby is doing well.. an older boy now but still loves his outings and actually is “coming out” . I never realize how Alpha Josy bullied him and kept him away from me etc.
health wise doing okay. Normal stuff for someone pushing 70..going natural & using herbs, oils and supplements is still my forte
Love to you all
God bless and keep you, Sweet “Sis”!!!
So GOOD to see you!

They are adorable, Conor. They seem to be growing fast!! Thank you for sharing them with us.
Happy Caturday.
Good to see you, Dolly. Sorry to hear about Josy.
Our Max is getting old and he is overweight. He must take after me. :)
Marissa is growing up to fast. She will be a sophomore next year. Where have the years gone?!!!
I like the cat’s meow poem, Trisham. Very nice. You can easily picture what the poem says. Lovely.
This is so cute, trish...I loved your darling red Friday post, too.
Thank you always for your sweet good night posts, (((Kitty))).
Im nobodys servant! I cried out. That morning the demands of my family seemed too much as I frantically helped to find my husbands blue tie, while feeding the crying baby and recovering the lost toy from under the bed for our 2-year-old.
Later on that day, as I was reading the Bible, I came across this verse: For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves (Luke 22:27).
Jesus didnt have to wash His disciples feet, yet He did (John 13:5). There were servants who did that job, but Jesus chose to serve them. Todays society insists that we should aim to be somebody. We want the best-paying job, the highest position in the company, the top leadership in church. Yet whatever position we are in, we can learn from our Savior to serve.
We hold different roles as parents, children, friends, workers, leaders, or students. The question is this: Do we carry out those roles with an attitude of service? Even though my everyday routine is sometimes tiring, Im thankful the Master will help me because I do want to follow His steps and willingly serve others.
May God help us to do this each day.
INSIGHT
: Verse 24 says that the disciples argued about who was the greatest. This was an ongoing dispute because on two earlier occasions they had displayed their desire to be first. They fought while returning to Capernaum (Matt. 18:1-5; Mark 9:33-37; Luke 9:46-48) and again on one of their trips into Jerusalem (Matt. 20:17-28; Mark 10:32-45). Now here, just hours before Jesus was crucified, while the disciples were observing one of their most sacred feasts, the Passover meal, they quarreled over who was the greatest (Luke 22:14-24). Rebuking them, Jesus said that true greatness is determined not by hierarchical authority (v. 25) but by service and humility (v. 26).
I’m enjoying your holiday posts, Amy.
So good to see you here, (((Dolly))).

Thank you, MEG.
It is a matter which has settled deeply on my heart.
Since I am Director of Music at my church, I have an opportunity to speak directly to my congregation about this, and we have been praying for them as a body.
