THINGS THAT MADE ME SMILE

I haven't posted in awhile. Nothing weighty enough to post. Let me give you a few things that made me smile the last while.

I had to smile when I invited a 79 year old lady for brunch. She is no ordinary 79 nine year old. Last Sunday in church she taught a ladies' SS class and in the evening gave her life story. She decided she could come for brunch because it had rained and it was to wet to mow her yard. That made me smile.:)

I was not smiling this morning when I discovered that two credit card bills that I was waiting to pay until the due date, (I like to pay online) were due yesterday. After breathing a prayer for mercy (I knew I deserved judgement)--I called and very sweetly asked if they could ignore any finance charges or late fees. They both assured me that if I paid today, everything would be okay. That made me smile.:) Thank you, Lord!!

Yesterday one of my neighbors came over and we had tea and a wonderful gab session. That made me smile.:)

My brother, Lowell, and his family came to visit us. Judy's parents--Sanford and Martha--were travelling with them. Other then that the visit was way too short, it was hard to improve on it. That made us all smile for a long time.:)
