trees, cats and laughter

Posted by Picasa

cats have way too much fun with Christmas trees ... they could get themselves into trouble eating decorations ... or toppling trees! if you own a cat - then you have a christmas tree story ...

it's a snowy Saturday morning here ... we have over a foot of the accumulated white stuff! ... it looks clean and fluffy ... soon i will venture out to sweep steps and carry some wood ...

an update: at this point, our house deal can go either way ... on Tuesday we will know one way or another ... and you know what? ... whichever way it goes, is fine with me ... on the one hand, i don't want to move in the winter - there is a heavenly peace in our neighbourhood during the snowy months ... on the other hand - it would be a done deal and we start a new chapter ... but regardless of which HAND ... this is ALL in God's hands!!

"and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:7

so i will go do my usual snow stuff ... turn on the Christmas lights early ... enjoy the day the Lord has made and the peace He freely gives to all His children ...

blessings on your weekend!!

Good way to look at it. But, you need that broadband access, don't you? :)

Have fun with all that snow. I'd be miserable.

elizabeth ... i didn't realize that i needed my patience worked on ... this little house selling project has been sent to do that, i think! ... the Lord knows our hearts, doesn't He? *smile*

fred ... that is absolutely true about the high speed ... sigh ... there again, my patience is being worked on ... AND since the snow IS part of the climate where we live, well i just have to deal with it - though it can get very confining when it restricts my movement ... one day, i'll walk streets of gold and the way i see heaven - there will be NO snow! :o)

shelley ... yes, it made me chuckle too, so of course i had to share it!
