On the road again

Wed. Dec. 14, 2016

Ok, another change.  It looks like I will leave tomorrow.  I just had the RV washed and it is supposed to rain on Friday, I don't like to drive with road spray on a just-washed vehicle, soooo, I will probably leave tomorrow, which is going to be cloudy and a perfect day for driving.  I will get there a day early, which should not be a problem.  

I started to do some cleaning up and vacuuming and what! No electricity!  Again?  I calmed down, checked the circuit breaker box, it was OK.  I went outside to check on the box where I plugged in the Electric cord and I switched the switches off and back on and WALLAH!  Back in business!  I don't understand enough about electricity.  But Jesus does, and He doesn't mind telling me what to do...works for me!

The guy who washed the RV here in the RV Park, did a pretty good job, not as good as Gary Dowd, he does it for me in Maryland and Colonial Beach.  This guy was referred by a full-timer here in the RV park, I met in the laundry mat.  It cost $80, which wasn't bad.

I am waiting for my friend's daughter-in-law and we are going to get our nails done.  Girly stuff.

The ride down to Palm Desert should be scenic, I am looking forward to it.

I received my Shaklee package yesterday and ate some Nutriferon, Defend and Resist and Alfalfa (I had just run out of Alfalfa) I got a good night's sleep, The Cold is finally on it's way out and I feel a lot better. 

PAYDAY, today, is Shaklee payday and what a blessing!  I got  a $1,020 raise this month! Woopee!  I think back to the days when we were living pay day to pay day and had no idea, there was a better way!  I also think about how we wasted so much of God's resources by making bad choices, like going into debt to keep up with illusive "Jones's", and buying a 42 ft Yacht that held 300 gals of gas.  It was a hole in the water that we poured money into!  I guess we got the bragging rights to say we owned a yacht!  I remember throwing and giving away lot's of stuff that cost's lots of money that could have been used in better ways.  Our flesh is never satisfied, if we give it a little, it wants more and we already have enough!  We already have everything we need to accomplish God's purpose in our lives!  The world wants us to spend more and more money on the latest and greatest, that will be out of date next year...that is the way the World's system works.  Let's choose to get off...just step away from that system and do it God's way!

About giving.  This is the Christmas season and if we do it right, we will give properly, not go into debt, give from what we have, not what we don't have, think about the needs (not desires) of the other person, not give stuff that will be thrown away or given away, just to say I gave them something.  I have learned that gift's from the heart are the best received.  Those that only you could give.  Think about the gifts and talents God has placed in you, and give from that.  It takes thought, effort, time, in other words, giving yourself, not necessarily a lot of money and you will have no regrets!  Just a Grandma Swann thought for the Christmas season. (PS. Think about the best gift you have received.....it is about love and sharing Jesus this Season.)

On the road again.
