My heart relaxed when you mentioned "the quiet". It is in the quiet times that God heals the pain and damage to our hearts but...it takes a long time. Sigh.<br /><br />There is a family resemblance in the picture of your daughters standing beside your mother. The girls are going to look like her as they age - that's a good thing.<br /><br />As for computer keys not working, that is a common problem for me since I have spilled my coffee on my keyboard more than once. Oops. My son loaded a program onto my computer that allows him to change the keys' functions. A letter "A" can become a letter "B". If you are interested, I can get the information from him.<br /><br />Jeannie@GetMeToTheCountryJeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11333123227073032453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2933097612306343473.post-69995244133616209392024-02-12T15:22:50.743-07:002024-02-12T15:22:50.743-07:00Preachin' to the choir, girl.

Asked the renter if we could have some, and she said, "What do you do with them?" We were told to get as many as we wanted, so we picked 2-3 times and made jam. Even gave her a jar for her kindness. It's a shame what goes to waste! We have other fruit trees that had unbelievable amounts of fruit this year. Few people would come pick, and some even didn't want it if we picked it for them. ??? Anyway, we have lots of jam and frozen fruit!

The men would save the trash to crush it when the stopped in front our house. One day we were leaving for the store and after I strapped the 5 and 3 year old into their car seats, I hurried inside to pick up the baby. When I stepped back out (seconds later) both boys were gone from the car. I panicked and rushed around the corner of the house toward the road to see the trashman walking them back down the driveway. They had heard the truck, unbuckled their seatbelts, and ran to the street to watch the truck. The man had realized they didn't belong beside the busy highway and was bringing them back to me. He was a guardian angel.<br />Jeannie@GetMeToTheCountry<br />Jeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11333123227073032453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2933097612306343473.post-5100014135412394822023-09-07T12:37:41.268-06:002023-09-07T12:37:41.268-06:00NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
