A Very Nice “Military Monday” to You!
(((HUGS)))
Thank you, ML.
(((HUGS)))
Thank you, TCP! Yes, she DOES have a little button nose!
((((HUGS)))) to YOU, too Kitty Mittens! Yes, Shanah is adorable - and in almost a week, we’ve only had two ‘accidents’ in the house. (But I must be on the ‘watch’ every second......)
King James Version (KJV)
107 O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endures for ever.
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.
5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
6 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
8 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;
11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:
12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.
13 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.
15 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
16 For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.
17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.
19 Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
21 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.
23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;
24 These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.
25 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.
26 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.
27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wit's end.
28 Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.
29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
30 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.
31 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
32 Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
33 He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;
34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
35 He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.
36 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;
37 And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.
38 He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
39 Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
40 He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.
41 Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.
42 The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
43 Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord. Amen
I loved this very much, Meg! ((((HUGS))))
Beautiful Psalm, Geo! Thank you!

King James Version (KJV)
“ ...
10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That one always makes tears in my eyes. So sweet and loving.

Hello, hello. I am about as regular visiting here as O is in keeping his promises aren’t I? Now without Internet at home it is very hard to keep up. I do mostly on cell phone which many of you know has its limits. Pictures are very small & I don’t go to links to preserve the battery which is very limited on my 3G. I get to WiFi on occasion.
Still struggling with health & $$ issues. Guess that will be the case til I breathe my last. Going to finally see my congressman tomorrow re: the no power in house for almost 3 months. I am low income & qualify for about any program out there & applied in Feb but NO word. I re- applied 2 months ago. I am the wrong color, too old & dont have half a dozen legitimates to get their attention I guess.
Still doing a lot of reading, movies & eat out with various men friends. Early Rag time jazz enthusiast. Last year I did 9 big road/car trips and they were wonderful. This year pretty much a wash out. Not having Mark to support this wonderful habit is missed. But I don’t really miss him & glad I broke up with him. His millions do not balance out his anger, atheism & control issues. Just a short note to let you know I am still kicking & thinking of you & appreciate all your great sharing along the way. I see many of you on Facebook and that is good. Many of my former FR friends are no longer here
Hi Meg, glad you liked my silly story. Hey how about some more pictures of your great-grandbabies! They are so cute.
Cheers, TCP
Hi, Just wanted to say that one of my horses was born in Tennessee. He’s a Tennessee Walker too. My second horse is the same breed but was born here in Wisconsin. I wonder if Jack preferred the TN weather to ours? I suppose being a horse, he cannot ponder such things and is only concerned with grass, hay and horsie treats.
Cheers
PS- I still have never learned to post a picture. You are way ahead of me!
