Psalm 107 - shared with Mom, as I do everyday. She can no longer read the small print. It is good to share though. The theme of this psalm is people in great trouble who were delivered by the Lord, says the study writer. This could refer to any of us, right? How often do we have to be reminded that the Lord is always with us? A lot apparently.
On this day: 2004
I took Mom to the oncologist. She had surgery earlier in the year to remove a cancerous spot in her colon. On this day the doctor told us that she was cancer free and did not need chemo. It is the kind of news you want to hear. I have many friends and family that I am praying for that have not heard this from their doctors....YET.

Parenting - Over the years, I notice when the kids were all young and were all over for dinner on Sunday. One by one as they become teenagers, you notice the older ones are not there, having other more important places to be. But don't worry, once they get older, settled have families, they come back for that Sunday dinner again. Eventually, they have the dinner and we can go there, right? Isn't that right? Do you agree? Do we get to go to their house on Sunday for dinner? (JK)
Book Club - Mornings on Horseback by David McCullough. Had some decent reading time last night. The Roosevelt's took a year and went to Europe, Mom and Dad and the children, which included Theodore, or Thee has they called him. He was an interesting child. It is a great recount of their travels and what it was like traveling in the mid 1800's.
Zuato Venezuela:
Venezuela was colonized by Spain in 1522 amid resistance from indigenous peoples. In 1811 it became one of the first Spanish-American colonies to (declare independence), which was not securely establish until 1821, when Venezuela was a department of the federal republic of Gran Colombia. It gained full independence as a separate country in 1830. During the 19th century Venezuela suffered political turmoil and dictatorship, remaining dominated by regional caudillos (military strongmen) until the mid-20th century. Since 1958, the country has had a series of democratic governments. Economic shocks in the 1980s and 1990s led to several political crises, including the deadly Caracazo riots of 1989, two attempted coups in 1992, and the impeachment of President Carlos Andrés Pérez for embezzlement of public funds in 1993. A collapse in confidence in the existing parties saw the 1998 election of former career officer Hugo Chávez and the launch of the Bolivarian Revolution, beginning with a 1999 Constituent Assembly to write a new Constitution of Venezuela.
Enjoy the Day! Make it Memorable!
