The propane truck pulled in here yesterday-- gave us almost 1000 gallons of Propane-- almost $1000.00
What do these people in Ukraine--do??-- How do they continue on with their lives?--And it has been such a cold snowy winter this year here--and I thought that was bad?-- We at least have heat and food--and our lives continue on--
Anyway, Son #3 is back from the nations capital-- They drove back in a terrible snow storm--- It was something he never wanted to do--but--- he did--
It is almost minus 30C here this AM--so so cold! And little Lopez went out, in his Parka and did his business---Whatta good little fellow!
To-morrow , Himself goes for a brain scan at our local hospital------ I shall have to be up early to get him there--
Thinking good thoughts for you and Himself tomorrow. Otherwise, prayers for Ukraine.
ReplyDeleteThank yu to yu--Lynda
DeleteHope all goes well tomorrow and you get some answers. Prayers for Ukraine.
ReplyDeleteThank -yu so much-Lynda
DeletePrayers for Ukraine, I don't think I could handle living like they're forced to do. Yes Lynda, we are so fortunate to live in Canada, we have a good country in spite of the grumbles & gripes some have about it. We're free, we do have food, warmth, clothing.
ReplyDeleteThe brain scan is so important right now for Fred. Be sure to let us know the results. I'm praying for him too. And safe traveling for the both of you.
Hugs to you, Fred and your furry family xoxo
Hi Gloria-- This wee Lopez is quite the handful-- I will let yu know about the scan---I hope they tell me to-morrow-- Lynda PS I read all yer beautiful sayings on Facebook-I love them-Lynda
DeletePraying for your trip to hospital tomorrow. Also praying for this world.
ReplyDeleteAs a Christian I know God is in control. Have a good and peaceful day.
Give your little Lopez a treat for being a good boy!
Yes we are very fortunate to live here and not there. Its scary to think what might happen as Putin threatens the world if countries take action against him. Hope hospital trip goes well. Glad you can go local instead of having to go to Sudbury. Thoughts and prayers are with you and Fred. And Lopez is being such a good boy!
ReplyDeleteYes, I had the very same thoughts this morning as I sat down watching the CBS morning news. I am afraid for the people in Ukraine and pray that they get some relief. All they want is to live their own lives as they choose. And although I know that all this will affect me in an indirect way, I am safe in my home and have enough heat, food, water to live comfortably. Our heating bill has been almost double what it's EVER been these last couple of months but we are also having such cold, snowy, windy days. Below 0 again this morning. Good luck with the brain scan tomorrow. Praying for safe driving weather!
ReplyDeleteYes, we are lucky. As my Mom used to say, there for the grave of God go I.
ReplyDeleteGood luck tomorrow. I’ll be praying for a safe trip and some answers for you.
Hugs ❤️
Yu made me LOL--with the "grave" of God--LOL-- Hugs, Lynda
DeleteGrace of God. Geez. Fat fingers typing!🤣😂🤣😂
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts and prayers will be with you and Himself tomorrow. Sounds like Lopez is doing better. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteSafe trip tomorrow. So very sad at the war...
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. My heart just aches for the Ukranian people. Don’t know what we can do as individuals, but prayer. Seems to be the order of the day. I truly do not know what I’d do in their situation (and definitely do NOT want to find out, either. )
ReplyDeleteLord have mercy, the stock market is being decimated. **SIGH**
Wow! Well, at least w/the propane will allow you to stay warm.
So happy to hear Son #3 made it back home safely. What an ordeal. Not sure what’s going to happen here, but hearing there’s a truck strike scheduled near Washington DC in the near future. **SIGH** Like there are not enough problems right now!???? **SIGH**
Kudos to Lopez! It’s cold for such a little one and Miss Lilly feels the same way.
MANY prayers for Himself and you tomorrow for his brain scan. Prayers for safe travels and a good outcome. AND some treatment helps.
Reading the other Barb's comment about the stock market... yeah, I noticed that, with the statements that have come since the start of the year... my "retirement savings" have shrunk considerably already, mainly with the uncertainty in the world.
ReplyDeleteBut my most selfish self was thanking God that my son is no longer in uniform, and is not sitting in Poland right now! Horribly selfish sense of gratitude as I know there are other mothers whose sons and daughters are in danger, and I'm praying for all of them!
Meanwhile, in the more immediate world... cold weather continues and we have a few dancing snowflakes, but not many. So I'll be grateful for every peace of grace (not grave) that comes my way!
Speaking of prayers, mine are also extended for answers to come from your Himself and the brain scan. Drive safe and stay warm!
Wishing you safe travels tomorrow . . .we are supposed to be getting a storm tomorrow and I wouldn't like to have to go out in it. We went out to breakfast today for the 1st time in 2 years . . .it was strange to think about all that has happened and continues to happen as I type this. My heart is sad for those in the Ukraine I can't imagine their pain at seeing what is happening to their country.
ReplyDelete(((Hugs)))
ReplyDeleteYes, I've been watching the Ukraine/Russia stuff on the international news for a bit and continue to pray.
ReplyDeleteGood for Lopez, keeping up the training. And thank goodness Son#3 is back safe and sound from what had to be a stressful set of duties. And thank the good Lord that you have heat in such bitter cold.
I hope Himself's scan goes well tomorrow. Be safe!
ReplyDeleteThoughts and prayers for Ukraine citizens. Highly likely there will be fall out for all of us in other countries.
ReplyDeleteGlad your officer son is safely home. Also glad you were able to get gas to heat your home.
Safe travels tomorrow for skan and sending prayers for hope and direction on next steps.
Be warm, safe and well.
Hoping everything goes well tomorrow with the scan, that you do not have a long wait, and be nervous. Glad you got the propane, I remember when we used that. Glad your son is back safe from travel. Crossing fingers for the Ukraine people, our family came to the states from Berlin after that war. Always started by short coming males who do not measure up!!
ReplyDeletePraying that the scan gives you and Fred some answers and what are the next steps. Praying you both have a safe trip. Please keep us posted.
ReplyDeleteThat is great little Lopez did his business outside when it is so cold. I know I would not have wanted to do that. I am not sure if this will happen but when you and Fred leave tomorrow and little Lopez is going to be home alone he might forget all that he has learned for a few days. But be patient with the little one he is smart and he will figure it out. He just hasn't been around long enough to understand that "his people" do come and go but they do come back. Does anyone in which ever son that moved close to you be able to go and let him out through out the day?
Yes I am praying for Ukraine and the rest of the world. This is going to effect all of us. Because of decisions made by our government we now have to get our fuel from other countries which really do not like us. Which means the middle and lower class people are going to be really hurting. I am just grateful that we are heading into warmer weather. Of course it won't be good if this is still happening in summer.
Pray for peace.
The son who lives down the road is hopeless-- Lordy Be! -- Oh well---Good thing I am strong--I think--Lynda
DeletePraying that everything goes well with the scan. Hopefully there will be some answers for you both.
ReplyDeleteIts sad and disturbing what is going on in Ukraine. Praying for the people there.
so good to hear from yu Paula Lynda
DeletePrayers for Himself and you tomorrow.......seems as though things are
ReplyDeletegetting really weird in this world...prayers for the military.... God
knows I hope we do not get in the middle of this too.
It is scary for sure--- Lets hope and pray it doesn't get worse-Lynda
DeletePrayers for your day today - for safe travel and that Himself's scan will go well and give you some answers. So glad you were able to get propane, that son #3 made it safely home, and little Lopez is making progress. And yes, the news out of the Ukraine is heartbreaking, I can't imagine being in that situation. I hope a peaceful resolution is found soon. Sending hugs to you for your day.
ReplyDeleteThank yu Karen--Lynda
DeleteYes, we are indeed fortunate!
ReplyDeletePraying for those on both sides of the conflict...and Himself, too!
enjoying my last day in Hawaii. Tomorroe we fly to my where my son lives near Monterey, CA. {{{HUGS}}}
I guess all we can do for the people of Ukraine is pray for them!
