The week of water...

Has hopefully ended!

Last night Miss A called me to come to the bathroom.  The tub had overflowed because a washcloth was strategically placed over the drain.  Out came the towels that had previously been used to clean up the water from the dishwasher, sat in the remaining 3 inches of water in the washer after the garage flooded, and had finally been dried and were waiting to be re-washed.  Yep.  Those towels.

And in other news, not one but two of our church members were involved in vehicle accidents this week.  Tony and his wife served as missionaries for 30 some years before they retired and moved back to the US.  Tony was walking along the sidewalk of the assisted living facility where they live when he started across a driveway.  He had headphones on and did not see or hear the garbage truck that hit him.  PRAISE GOD THAT THIS MORNING TONY WAS WALKING NORMALLY!  He did not have any broken bones, concussion, anything.  Just some nasty looking bruises.

The other accident involved our pastor's wife.  I am not sure of all the details, but the damage to her car was more than what the car was worth.  She also walked away from the accident.  PRAISE GOD FOR HIS PROTECTION!

So, our little church is getting a bit of a shaking and a reminder that we have prayed that we will learn to be dependent on God for everything.  It is tough, but kinda fun to see how God is working in each of our lives as we learn more about having a radical commitment to God.

We found this very friendly kitty at our local park. He came right up to me and just wanted some loving. Because he scared A while she was eating, I asked the maintenance man if he knew anything about the cat. Between the two of us, we decided that the cat had most likely been dropped off by someone in a vehicle that had left moments before I got out of our truck.

A was brave enough to pet his head while he was looking at her. For those who may not know, this is a HUGE accomplishment for her.
Watching all the children play. He looks a little sad to be locked out of the playground.

Something in the Indian River near Manzo Park. I liked the reflection in the water.

The water was so still that day, but there was a bit of a current flowing around this palm branch.

I liked the angle of the light and the way the sails hung.

This squirrel jealously guarded his find.

I looked up and there was a squirrel with its body in the trash can and only its tail out. I was a little late to get that picture, but here he is digging into his find. Looks like a good muffin. I think someone was watching their calorie intake because there was half of the muffin left.

The lamp post. It made me think of Narnia.

She put the bow on with her flapper dress as well. I'm not sure what she is thinking about, but it must be something serious.

Rain, rain go away!

(Just to let you know...I did several posts today, so keep scrolling to read all of them!)

Need I say more?? The 1st two are out my back door & the 2nd two are out the window on the garage door. Which was also filling with water. The water only came in far enough to barely touch the back wheel of the motorcycle.
