Rusty........



is in doggie Heaven as of Tuesday March 17th. We sure do miss that guy! The house is so quiet without him. The vet office sent a sympathy card to me. Wasn't that sweet? I cried when I read it. I just couldn't help it. He was with us for 11 years. He suffered so much the past two weeks was the reason we had to have him put to sleep. We buried him by a tree. The roots were so plentiful that Jack just dug until we could get the box in the hole standing up. So Rusty is standing on his hind legs again. I found a rose bush at the feed store. The name of the bush is Scentimental. It is bergundy with splashes of white. We planted this bush beside Rusty. Just thought it appropriate.

I have been working more hours this week. I did route 4, short route, last Sat. Monday I did route 2. This route is 94 miles. Wed.-Fri. I did route 3, which is 127 miles. I just received a call from our OIC and I will be doing route 3 again tomorrow. I was told I will be doing this route more. Brenda, the main carrier for this route is still out due to her cancer surgery. She is doing very well. She may be able to come back to work in May, and work 3-4 days a week for a while. Her husband told me that he may be able to go back to work in a couple of weeks. They are Praising the Lord for His goodness to them, as we are doing the same. There was a benefit held for them in Robeline a couple of weeks ago that netted $15,000.00 for them. Isn't this an awesome figure?

Last month I had to have brakes on the jeep. This week Lyndsy's car wouldn't start. We had to have it towed to the shop and get a new starter. almost 400 dollars. Thursday, Jack carried his truck to the shop and had 2 u-joints replaced along with spark plugs and 2 new tires. This was over 3oo dollars. Where oh where oh where will the extra moola come from? Only God knows that. I thank Him for His loving care for our lives. Maybe this is why I am having to work route 3 so much? hmmmmmmmm Isn't God good?

While on the mail route, I get to see alot of wild animals along with the BEAUTIFUL flowers and trees. The tulip trees were very pretty but through blooming. The red buds have been beautiful. The wild plum, pears, cherries, and whatever have dotted the countryside with lots of color. The peach tree in our yard is full of blooms. Now the dogwood is busting out. The wisteria and azaleas are trying to show out. I get to see all of this along with deer, wild turkey, bobcats, and many, many other wild animals. I listen to KLove radio all day. So it is just the Lord, KLove, and the many animals praising the Lord all day long. I do enjoy my job. :)

This pic of the azalea is at our front door. This is one plant. Isn't it BEAUTIFUL?

Hope you all have a great day in the Lord's presence, today and always.
