THE WEATHER HERE AND IN AUSTRALIA


SUN RETURNS - TWO DAYS LATER




















SUNSET - STORM MOVING IN


We had no idea how terrifying the storm was in Brisbane until we saw the video. It is amazing the house remained standing and thankful the family members experienced no physical damage but I am sure it will take awhile for this shaking violent storm of destruction to become a distant memory. We are so thankful that they were protected and survived.


We had a great time visiting with Michael John's mom Jean and sister Sherri. They nade a delicous supper for us and did all the work of cleaning up. Mary brough Justice over and he has grown so much. Michael John and Mary have fun playing with him and he sure loves them both.
Sandra looked very beautiful with her new hair cut and even though she had had a long day looked in good spirits.

Sherri was very helpful giving us some advice on pain and she certainly knows from her spinal damage and her knowledge of nursing a lot. Dad listened to her about the leg pain relief but right now his lip is very ugly and red and sore and there is the concern about his glucoma in the left eye.

Larry enjoys visiters and it was a very relaxing time for us both.

I am finding especially when I have a full day the back pain gets very bad by evening. We have four Christmas parties scheduled but right now I do not think we will go.

My prayer is that we both find relief for our pain and that our faith will strengthen us and give us hope. Today we will be shopping for presents for our Christmas Box so that will be fun.

Again and again I am remimder of how much we have to be thankful for.
