Today is just a wonderful day. The sun is bright and hot and the birds were chirping this morning.

Lot's of stuff going on lately. I got older yesterday (even took a couple hour nap in the afternoon), read a verse in Church - Proverbs 3:5-6 which says: Trust in the LORD with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

Trust in the LORD

Sounds so easy, doesn't it?

Trust isn't one of those one time deals with Him. You don't just sign on the dotted line and blamo - perfect trust. Trusting in the Lord means that we need to live our lives with Him constantly - in everything. That means big things (like what work to do) and where to live. And little things - like every little thing that happens during the day. It's how you live your life. Do you lean on the Lord?

I'd been grumpy for a couple days. There are lots of reasons for it. But I don't like being grumpy - it's just not who I am. So, I gave it to God - trusted him with my grumpyness this past weekend and just let it go.

Some other details - My sister Donna and her boyfriend Mark are still alive and well (they live in the Outer Banks, sort of where the hurricane went...), Josh got home from his trip of Las Vegas (sounds like he really liked it there), the Steelers won! I'm making progress on learning Sometimes by Step (a Rich Mullins song) on my hammered dulcimer - slow progress... it's a tough song and Rich played wonderfully.

Jerry and Judy next door had a sun porch added to their house - really kind of nice with spiffy windows all around. The floor wasn't done. They decided on something that looks like tile, but goes in like Pergo. Last week they stopped by and asked if they could put it in or what would it take to do. So, I explained that they needed a table saw and the rest was pretty easy. Saturday Jerry and I started putting in the new floor. We got about four rows in after a couple of hours. Yesterday we put in another four rows - this takes the floor to just a little over half way. It's looking really nice. We even had dinner there and Judy had baked a cake for my birthday - so we had cake afterwards. Nice folks - Jerry and Judy.

Today I'll be sharing the rest of the cake at work.

One last detail - the new tv season just began. Enterprise started a couple weeks ago... but most of the shows start new this week. Here comes another interesting year of CSI...
