    From Jane Drake:

    A very good friend of mine needs in-home care for six months, starting anytime and including her surgery date of Dec. 15. She is a delightful person and easy to get along with. Her husband, who is blind, works out of the house, and they have a son who is 20. They have a lot of critters in their home!

    The person’s main job would be to clean, do laundry, and make three square meals a day. No heavy lifting. No patient care. Person does not need to speak English OR drive. They must live in (they will have their own room and bath). It could also lead to a permanent position.

    If you are interested, please get in touch with John and he will give you a
    number to call.
     

    True?  Good friends are like stars; you don't always see them, but you know they are there!

    Zephaniah 2: But I will leave as a remnant in your midst a people humble and lowly, who shall take refuge in the name of the LORD: the remnant of Israel.
    1 Corinthians 1:  It is due to him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, as well as righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, so that, as it is written, “Whoever boasts, should boast in the Lord.”
    Matthew 4: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land. … “

     


    And while you go through life, know how wonderful it is that you’re going at all. Baby mosquito, the story tells, came back after its first time flying. Its mother asked, “Well, how do you feel?” And baby mosquito answered, “It was wonderful! Everyone was clapping for me.” Go on and on and on. Don’t quit.
