yippee yahooey! a friend of mine has been soooo gracious to me! he looked at my broken washing machine and told me he thought it was the motor (major expense that!) but when he did finally get into the machine said ‘count yourself lucky today, it is only the belt’, YES! it is a blessing that it is such a minor thing to fix! Thank God! and thanks that i have a friend who is there to help out for free! he also is going to replace the broken lighter in my car too! woo hoo!

i want to bless this guy as much as he is blessing me. he won’t take it but i am trying to give him my roto-zip that i have no place to use it; he would get more use out of it anyway and i feel like it is a small price to pay for him being so gracious with his time and skill.

my neighbor also complimented me on my artistic skills and she herself has an art degree. that is a blessing to have a fellow artist like my efforts :D

coolies!
