March 18, 2007

In Sunday School, our lesson really spoke to my heart today, especially after yesterday. How "Jesus Takes Care of Us." We all have wolves in our life, no matter how big or small they might be. If we are dealing with them right now or if they are buried deep within us, we should always remember Jesus is our Shepard. He is our protector from wolves, we just need to call out to Him.

The only exciting news around "God's Country" is a local restaurant "Johnny's" was in the newspaper this past week. A local resident exposed her breast in the restaurant in order to breast feed her baby. After several complaints, one of the waitresses asked to give the woman a clean towel to place over her baby & her chest. Well, that stirred up a bee's nest. This same woman gathered up some other Pro-public breast feeder women and protested in front of the restaurant. Here's the article: www.cullmantimes.com/homepage/local_story_074231757.html?keyword=leadpicturestory . We go to church with the Wiggins. In fact, we are all in the same Sunday School Class. Needless to say, Gary got a little teased today in class. He was a good sport over the whole thing.

After church, we went to OfficeMax. Doug purchased a USB Drive & external drive for my laptop computer. We drove by Pat & June's house and visited with them for a little while. Katie was in heaven. She had her June, rocks & steps to climb on. We tried to get her to ride the tractor with Uncle Pat, but she got scared at the last minute. I had the video camera all ready but she wouldn't have it.

Foodnetwork

Hey, Foodnetwork has a new sweepstakes going on right now. It's a fantasy Kitchen makeover plus a chance to win $50,000 and a trip to NY. I registrated, you can too. Here's the link: http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/sweepstakes/text/0,2677,FOOD_23336_58175,00.html . The best of luck to you. I wish HGTV was having another home sweepstakes. Last year when they had the house giveaway (gorgeous) in NC, I registered every single day. Of course, I didn't win it but it was a lot of fun. I'll let you know the next time they have it.
