Thimble Thoughts: Prayer...

Prayer...

My Mother-in-Law is having surgery tomorrow, so I would really appreciate everyone who prays, to please remember her in your prayers. She'll need it and thank you for it.

Normally, Justin will do his yards on Friday, but we did them today to get them out of the way so we wouldn't have to worry about it while Marie is having surgery tomorrow. His second house has an apple tree that has dropped many apples. And on the ground were dozens of yellow jackets, wasps, and even a couple of hornets enjoying the sweetness of the apples. Well, I wouldn't let him cut over there, and he didn't seem to mind me telling him so. LOL I left the lady a note and I'm sure she'll understand. She's really sweet. I kept her Grandchildren for a few years so I wanted to make sure they didn't go over there. Wouldn't that be awful?

Anyway, got the yards done, grocery shopping done, and car put in the shop. The "check engine" light is on and it's time for inspection. UGH! Every year at inspection time, that light comes on and a simple inspection ends up costing between $200 and $700. Bruce ran the codes on it and we know it's the EGR, but he doesn't have time to work on it since he's on seven days a week. Not to mention, he needs some special tools, and everywhere he's gone they've been sold out or don't carry what he needs. But the mechanic we took the car to is a really nice Christian man and seems very fair in his prices. So we're praying it doesn't run us terribly too high this time.

Well, that's it for today. Pretty boring, huh? LOL
