Shots, Car Repairs, and More!

This week was full of all sorts of surprises. Some good, some not so good. Thursday we went into Rochester to get some of our shots that are not available in our county and I ended up writing a check that was the equivalence of one of our mortgage payments! The next day our car went into the shop for what we thought were some inexpensive repairs and we ended up making a payment the equivalence of one of Ray's weekly paychecks! Those were NOT good surprises.

Now our checking account has very little in it. I told Ray we should be glad we actually had the money in our account to pay for these things. That is one of the reasons we sold our bed, to help pay for the immunizations we needed (the other reason being that we didn't want to pay for storage for it).

Today we spoke at a church right here in town and were so blessed by their congregation. We were feeling discouraged going into this weekend and the Lord lifted us up. That was a good surprise.

Lastly, during (my) choir rehearsal this evening Miss Anna pulled out tooth number 6 leaving her with a lovely gap in the middle of her mouth. She can now sing the song, 'All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth' and yes she is only 5 years 2.5 months old. That was a fun surprise since that tooth was dangling at an awkward angle that was making Mommy queasy.

Please continue to pray that our house will either sell or that we would find the perfect renters for it. And also continue to pray for our support.
