BUSY!!

I haven't been able to post in a long time because I have been so busy. Let's see what has happened since...LCA is 3-1! The SAINTS ARE 3-0!! It has been a pretty good month. We had some problems with our AC and our plumming, but we have some amazing friends who blessed us and we are set to go now. One day we will bless those who have blessed us so much. I pray that God blesses them as well, that they will reap the great things that they have sewed. Samson is doing well he is just as mischievous as always. We bought him dog food for the first time (we had been buying him puppy food). It was different for him. He did not like it at first but now he gobbles it up just like the other food. However, with all of this great stuff going on, we do have a problem. Janie had a cat, Otis, before we got married. When we moved into Cajun Village, we had to get rid of him. A nice little old lady took him in and took care of him. Unfortunately, this woman died recently. We now have a problem. We cannot keep both the dog and cat in the house at the same time, so we are forced to try to find someone who would like a cat. He is full grown, house trianed, declawed, and is a STRICTLY inside cat. If you leave the door open, he will not run outside. He is scared of it. He is a very Passive cat and loving. If any of you either want him or know someone who might, PLEASE let us know as soon as possible. We will not put him in the kennel but we need to fine a home for him.

28

Well, I had a birthday yesterday. I am actually 28...wow! Turning 28 caused me to think about my life as I approach 30. I thought about where I am and where I'm going, and about what has brought me here. On Sunday Pastor Jay said we should not be upset about the Disappointments in our lives because it usually means God has an Appointment for us. This caused me to think of some of the things that have happened in my life. I thought about several years ago, while I was in Florida visiting my parents for Christmas. While I was there, my car broke down and I was stuck there for about a month. When I returned, I was kind of in trouble for being gone for so long. To make op for this I went to an event in our cafe' at church. This was the night that I met my future wife. My disappointment, Car trouble, turned into God's appointment. Now I am SO thankful that things happened the way they did. I am now looking for disappointments so there will also be appointments in my life. I am so grateful that God brought us together.
