I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13
Quote of the Day
Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself. ~ C. S. Lewis

condemned
I'm sure I blogged about the fridge and its off-and-on performance. We did the whole Easter meal with a large block of ice on the top shelf of the fridge as the cooling feature was taking the weekend off; I may have overlooked blogging about last week's expensive repair (faulty thermostat . . . duh!). Or about the expensive repair on the dishwasher (glass in filter). And you do recall the car blowing up on the way to Children's Hospital, don't you?
With all that, don't you think it's a bit much to have the furnace guy come out today and condemn our furnace? He shut the gas off and everything and then asked me for $100.
Oh, dear, that doesn't sound good. Condemning a furnace. I don't imagine an eternity of blazing "down under" comes with the condemnation. Pity, as it sounds like you could use the warmth.

Yes, I had wished for that too. A little fire from below would be lovely right now.
