Surgery
Will you all be praying today for my mother-in-law Pam as she goes in for a double mastectomy today at noon. We have only been aware of the cancer for one week now and are praying hard that it has not spread to her lymph nodes. It’s great to be a part of a faith community though! Her church is providing meals (among other things) for her and her husband. And even Jessica and I are being cared for and blessed by Renovatus. We may not be orphans or widows, but i’m pretty sure that James would be willing to define this as pure religion.
peace.
Garden, Backyard, and Burning my Face Off
Just some more updates about our garden, our backyard, and a fire that nearly burnt my face off. You can click on the images to enlarge (some facebookers might not be able to view image. If so, go to www.downtown.renovatus.com)
-
- Our Backyard
-
- Thats right, our fire was made from an assortment of wood that contained: broken kiddie chair, kitchen chair, fence board, and a table leg. Started with recycled computer paper!
-
- The backyard fire got a little big
-
- Our backyard…again…from a different angle…yes, it’s a bit redundant
-
- Lemon balm is taking over
-
- Potatoes in a random old broken rubbermaid
-
- White Cucumber and some other random things
-
- Onions, dying cilantro, and a few squashes
-
- Some celery, kale, hidden purple and yellow carrots, and an assortment of peppers
-
- Second back yard garden. LOTS of tomatoes: red, yellow, purple, orange, pink…
-
- Got rid of the chickens and turned their coop into a playhouse!
-
- Our rain barrel…that my son drained!
-
- Our back yard box. Pole beans, dying sweet peas, bird house gourd…
-
- Got to love compost!
-
- Our front yard garden box is the forgotten one. It’s surrounded by an ugly fence to protect it from killer cats
-
- Onions, yellow squash, round squash, and some dying sugar snap peas
-
- a few types of lettuce and some purple bush beans
-
- Mmm, wild flowers
-
- The corner of our disgusting yard has mint, a nearly hidden mini-pumpkin plant, and a random purple bush bean plant.
