GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD

NOTES
Today has been partly cloudy with a high temperature of 81 degrees and a low temperature of 64 degrees. We had a light shower of rain between 4:30 and 5:00 p.m. today. Last evening and last night I had two and two tenths of rain at my house. This morning at 9:00 a.m. I received a call from Dr. Sewell, my vet. She said that Little Girl was much better and was walking a little. Her blood pressure and temperature were normal. We agreed that I would come see her at 10:00 a.m. since the office is closed on Thursday afternoons. I went there at 10:00 and took a seat in the waiting room. Soon they brought Little Girl out to me wrapped in a towel. She was bright eyed and awake. I held her to my shoulder for several minutes as she likes that. She would look around like she wanted to get down and explore but that can't happen yet. I held her for 10 minutes or so and let them have her back. I think that visit helped Little Girl as much as it did me. I saw Charley and Bill and other friends at Bob's at noontime. I came by the post office and then home for my nap with Tony. At around 4:30 p.m. I went to a Dollar General Store. I went out to the back yard with the cats at 6:15 and sat with them for about 30 minutes or more. I have had so many e-mails that I won't list the names tonight but thanks to everyone for your prayers and e-mails. Thanks to each one who reads the Good Things.
The cats at home are fine. I have seen all of them today. Rascal is lying on the desk close to me and I just gave him a boo head. Itty Bitty just brought in a frog and I promptly took it back outside and put it in the grass. The thunderstorms last night caused most of the cats to hide while it was storming but Rascal stayed pretty close to me.
I will see you next time,
In Christian Love, Everett.
