It's Been Awhile

Yes, it has been awhile. Just have not had enough access to a computer. Now that has been taken care of, will get back on track.
Some say that blogs are so last year. Maybe that has something to do with it. Nah. I like to live in the past anyway.
Patty's computer is in the shop getting an upgrade and that is where the photo's are. We will just have to do a blog without pictures.
A few things pop into my head as I think about living here. A couple of Sunday's ago after Patty and I ran a few errands, we came back and found blood on our stairway. It went up to our window. We found out a kid got a bloody nose and ran to our house to get help. We weren't home so he finally went home.
As I was taking a hose and brush to clean up the mess, one of our neighbors came up and needed a ride to a local grocery store. Her car was not working and needed a ride. Patty took her to a particular store where she could wire her sister some money. Our neighbor is working two jobs and is not getting much sleep. She can also not afford to fix her car.
Tonight as I was eating dinner, another neighbor came by and offered food. Appears there is a birthday party and plenty of food. She brought by tacos and pazole. Yum.
This morning I filled in for Robbie at Bible Club. His small group is the older boys ages from 13 and older. There was 8 guys there and we went over the part of the Christmas Story in Luke where John the Baptist was born. John was to prepare the way for him, to give his people the knowledge of salvation through forgiveness of their sins, because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven, to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.
The Farm Drive Center is a place of Peace, Hope, and Love. People know that.
