Part two.
I know:
1. I need to get a move on shopping for Christmas.
2. We will have something for dinner.
3. If The Boy does come out of remission of his chronic ITP, God will just take care of him again. And He is able to put him back. He’s done it before.
4. If The Big Three go belly up, it won’t be a surprise to God.
5. If Honey loses his job, we will just have to learn a new way that God will provide for our needs.
6. I KNOW that I don’t know if I will get my Christmas cards out on time.
7. God knows what this world is coming to.
8. I still don’t know what I want for Christmas. It’s a tossup. A new camera, or having our cats declawed. I know that might not seem like a good present, but see #5. It needs to be done, and it is not essential to our life, so I might have to disguise it as a present. Because ultimately, what I really want, is new carpeting. And that is not happening with claws in the house.
9. Even if The Ab-Cat doesn’t walk again this side of heaven, she will have a perfect, restored body on the other side. And God will use her seated.
10. I always wished I was Mousey’s height.
11. God will let me know what my purpose in life is. I hope I am listening closely, I wouldn’t want to miss that conversation.
12. I will keep looking for Chai.
13. I want Mrs. Schmenkman to visit this winter. I miss her.
14. God is very patient with me. Because I don’t always obey Him without trying to convince Him that I am not the girl for the job.
15. I am going to pray that I DO finish strong.
“If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he should believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double minded man, unstable in all he does. James 1:5-8

Well, you just turned that first list upside down, and inside out! And that is the CK I know and love!

Ahhhh Schmenky, I miss you too.
Unfortunatly, with the new addition to our household, a visit this winter is not in the cards. Little Miss Paddy Cakes is extremely needy and time consuming at this point in her life.
As for all of the other stuff… well, like you said, God has His plan and what will be will be.
You live every day strong, so you’ll finish strong. More importantly, you show others (namely ME) how to live better by your wonderful example.
