At Rest

Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts; for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.  James 5:8

Ruger and Roger

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.  Isaiah 1:18

Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.  And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.  Psalms 72:18-19

Ridiculous Dog Tale

On Thursday, Charles brought us the epizudiac from work.  It must be highly contagious and have a 4-day incubation period, because the boys and I dropped like triplets on Monday.  While it may not seem so to you, I still have my thinker, because the bulk of the buhg rests in the throat and chest.  I probably should have kept that to myself, given the lame nature of this post.  I'm just naturally lame in the belfry parts.  But you have to be nice to me, because I'm sick.

Harvey the Ridiculous enjoyed an indoor camping venture over the weekend.  He discovered a den in the folds of a quilt and disappeared for a while.  Emerging later, he hung for a bit, which I've learned must be a genetic trait, since his cousin, BobDog, does the same thing.

Eventually, he tired of hanging and righted himself...


Crawled out of the den...


Lay down...


And fell asleep.


When he woke from his nap, he traipsed over the mountain, in search of Mama love...


And found it.

But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the Lord shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.  And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.  Micah 4:1, 2

I'm Telling You

HE'S RIDICULOUS

The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.  Nahum 1:7

When the Parasail Fails

Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.  Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.  Proverbs 23:4, 5

Harvey Imitates Purrle

At least when he's sleeping, he's not shredding paper towels or napkins.  Where is he getting those anyway?

Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.  Jeremiah 17:7-8

Somebody Had to Do It

I chose me.


A tip-to-toe brushing.
No, I won't be knitting with it. Ü

For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.  1 Timothy 4:8

Some of Us Are Busy

Some, notsomuch.

This big guy is setting a poor example...


For this little guy.
He sure got with the program quickly.


In another part of the house...


Five pints of apricot jam down and all those ↑ to go.
Tasty.  And grateful for a bountiful harvest this year.

For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.  ...But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.  Isaiah 64:6, 8

Harvey Goes Fishing

Harvey went on his first fishing excursion yesterday.  Since you may be able to tell these aren't actual photos from the outing, I confess I forgot to take the camera and am having to wing this visual tale...

My hair was pretty windblown, but I'm not too vain to let you see me this way.

(Please scroll back up and notice how thin my face is.)

From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.  And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.  And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.  Matthew 4:17-19
