Her appt is for a follow-up on her ear infection and they will do her ‘check-up’ at same time so she doesn’t have to return in a couple of weeks.

She is feeling more than FINE!! If he tells her to postpone swim lessons, she will be hard to live with. :)

Good Morning Lady Jag :)
I like the cooler temps too. It will be hot before we know it and humid. Only wish the sun could be out for a day. ;) It’s still rainy today.

I know the type of summer shower you mean and it is so nice. Cools down the heat, cleans the air, if even for just a short while.

Have a nice weekend!

Good Morning Amy :)
You did great with shopping! The George Foreman grill is a great idea. I often get hubby needed clothes too. Hoping Booboo can find a unique gift.

I was going to ask about swimming and Marissa's ears. That's a tough one. Hopefully, she gets the all clear so she can enjoy swimming lessons!

Wishing you and your family a wonderful weekend!!

This happened a couple months ago to us and many others. It’s probably Google and has nothing to do with your computer. Did you try Yahoo or anything else?

No! It always opens as one of my tabs across the top so its always easy to get to! I got an email this morning with an attachment that I couldn’t open so I deleted it!

I think I will re-boot and see if it comes back! Can’t live without Google...(I only have a million graphics on file...LOL!)

The Tempted Brothers
How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God? —Genesis 39:9

Two brothers—both far from home —faced similar temptations. One, working away from the family, fell to the schemes of a younger woman. His sin led to embarrassment and family turmoil. The other, separated from loved ones because of family turmoil, resisted the advances of an older woman. His faithfulness led to rescue and renewal for the family.

Who are these brothers? Judah, who fell to the desperate scheme of his neglected daughter-in-law Tamar (Gen. 38). And Joseph, who ran from the arms of Potiphar’s wife (Gen. 39). One chapter, an ugly story of irresponsibility and deception; the other, a beautiful chapter of faithfulness.

The stories of Judah and Joseph, presented back-to-back in the midst of “the history of Jacob” (37:2), show us that temptation itself is not the problem. Everybody faces temptation, even Jesus did (Matt. 4:1-11). But how do we face temptation? Do we demonstrate that faith in God can shield us from giving in to sin?

Joseph gave us one way of escape: Recognize sin as an affront to God and run from it. Jesus gave another: Answer temptation with truth from God’s Word.

Facing temptation? See it as an opportunity to make God and His Word real in your life. Then run!

We fall into temptation when we don’t stand against it.
