Music, Music, Music

Life is just rolling along.  It's above zero today and feels balmy at 8 above.  The seasons are changing, even though the temp is cold, it just feels more like spring somehow.  Maybe it's just wishful thinking.  Who cares, as long as it works.


We went on Saturday and got a piano for dd2.  It was free....but it was in a basement.  My honey, bil, a friend and the Lord were able to move it out of the basement and into the back of our truck.  We used something called a piano slide.  It hellped, along with constant prayer.  Dd2 has practiced every night since we brought it home.  Her piano teacher is happy that she finally has a real piano to play.  She was practicing on one of those roll out keyboards.  We're starting to get quite the musical family.  Dd1 plays clarinet and saxophone, dd2 plays trombone, coronet and now piano, ds plays harmonica and is learning violin and piano, dd3 is taking guitar lessons from me, but I haven't been real regular with them.  Lookout Partidge Family.  Now I'm dating myself.


It's too early to start seeds here, but I have my orders made out and I started some lettuce in the house.  I did this last year and we had enough for a few meals.  Just makes me feel better, doing some windowsill gardening.  I took in my rosemary and lavender  last fall and they're still surviving on the windowsill.  They don't winter over up here.


Our business is officially closed.  We are no longer in the trucking business.  Praise God.  What a burden has been lifted off of our shoulders.  We just have to finish up our taxes for '07 and we can be normal people, working for someone else.  My honey is a company driver now and he actually likes not having to be responsible for everything.  God is good, my honey has had another job offer, and is going on an interview this week.  I now can budget because I know where the next paycheck is coming from.  I'm excited to see what God is going to do next.


This is getting long and if you have read all the way to the end you have a great attention span.


Better go and get lunch.


Give God the glory,


Rhonda
