HAPPY MONDAY!
Back to work and back to snow they say! About mid-week it should warm up and rain! Yesterday I pretty much stayed in after church and tried to keep warm – bitter cold day.
The 2 cats that rule the roost here were right at my side everytime I sat down. They make sure I pay attention to them.
Sunday heard from DS#1,DS#4 and DS#6 and I saw DD and DS#5 at church. Everyone is fine ready for Spring. DS#4 is busy getting ready to move and start his new job on March 6th.
Have a great day ! Another wonderful one on the Way!
TODAY IS...BLUE JEANS DAY
Jeans was a blue twilled cotton cloth milled in Geneo, Italy. The French weavers called the town "Genes" - and that's how we got the word "jeans". Blue jeans were invented by Levi Strauss during the Gold Rush of the 1850s. Selling canvas to the miners, he started stitching it into pants. In the 1860s, he replaced the canvas with denim. Worn as work pants for years, they became fashionable in 1935 when a model wore then in Vogue magazine.

TODAY'S REFLECTION
...in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? Psalm 56:11
There are times when we feel as shaky and anxious as if we were walking a tightrope with no safety net below. Those are the times to remember the words in today's scripture. The more you trust God, the more he is able to guide you to the answers you seek I believe God is managing affairs and that He doesn't need any advice from me.
With God in charge, I believe everything will work out for the best in the end. So what is there to worry about
Henry Ford
