I guess I should take a picture of our new fence on the south side of the house. (We replaced the north side over a year ago.) When I'm not giving piano lessons and helping Bill with his college online classes, I'm a contractor. This past week I went to Ace Hardware to order and pay for materials for the new fence. It was a huge job because we took out the old chain link fence and replaced it with a cedar privacy fence. We used steel posts set in concrete every 6 feet. Also, because our neighbor's yard is 6 inches higher than ours, we had to put 2 layers of railroad ties against the bottom of the fence to stop erosion. I got tired of the sound of saws and drills and am sooo happy it is finished! Emma Stockton lives next door and paid half the cost. Bless her!
Mom is fine. Noel continues to see cardiologists and neuroligists. There were some glitches in the new apartments being built, he has to wait to move in. My brother, David, got his passport and will be going to Mexico in November. He just returned from visiting his daughter, Lisa, in Seattle. Baby Zeke is progressing well at home, but is still getting rid of the methadone in his body.
Sunday was a good day. In spite of 3 people being gone, we had 15 in Bible Study Class. The lesson was about spiritual warfare and recognizing evil. I noticed that the members are beginning to feel very comfortable with each other and are opening up. It takes a lot of trust and courage to ask others to pray for you in certain areas of your life. Unconditional love is often difficult to find! It comes when people realize that everyone sins and we all need forgiveness. Learning to love people but not the sin is a hard lesson!
