Well, this year is quickly coming to an end.  Just 6 months ago we were celebrating our 46th wedding anniversary and now - well it is winter, cold, rainy and now December.  Not only do the years seem to fly by but so does technology.  When I started to blog, everyone was doing it, well almost everyone.  So like a little sheep, I followed.  Now it is no longer blogging but FB and yup, I have signed on as well.  I enjoy FB because I have connected with people that I have often remembered but lost track of.  I am not a wordsmith and so to write a long blog is often hard but I can make a one sentence comment or push "like".  Tonight tho I sat down and look at old blogs I have bookmarked and saw mine and decided to post a note to two.  What have we been doing since last February when we moved back to Sonora - learning how to live the "sort of" retired life with me working 4 days a week & Steve giving music lessons.  It has been a "Mr Toad's Wild Ride" to say the least but God has always, and I mean always provided for our needs and even some of our wants.  So as 2012 closes, we are praising God for His faithfulness even in my whining and worrying and wondering.  Psalm 3:5,6  I lie down and sleep; I wake again because the Lord sustains me.  I will not fear the ten thousands drawn up against me on every side.
