A Dusty Frame is one year old

Monday, August 13th, 2007

I can hardly believe it. I remember last summer sitting in someones house and telling her that I felt God wanted me to start a blog about this journey we’re on. At that point it felt like a fuzzy idea. I wasn’t quite sure where it would go. Mostly I figured it would be a [...]

We enjoyed our diversions this week

Sunday, August 12th, 2007

The ball game was fun. A line drive almost knocked my friend’s baby in the head though. My friend threw her hands in the air to stop it and injured her hand. Thank the Lord it didn’t hit the baby. We left early. She lost her enthusiasm for the game. We felt her injury deserved [...]

My car will be fixed

Sunday, August 12th, 2007

Pastor told me tonight that the church will pay to repair my radiator. That is such a huge blessing. He has let me use his car this weekend and this week until the car gets fixed. Thank you for praying. Please pray with me that this is the last of the car repairs. This blessing [...]

Phone savings

Sunday, August 12th, 2007

I’ve written a few times before about the expense of phone calls from prison. Here’s one post. I figured out something that made me happy! If I mail them a check, I can send any amount and there is no $8 charge to accept my payment. So instead of paying by phone and needing to [...]

Preparation revisited

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

Earlier, I wrote about preparing fabric for a project. Here is the finished project. I just finished it this morning and carried it tonight. My friend that took us to the baseball game said, “WOW! That is cute. You’re going to get a lot of compliments on that.” She doesn’t even like cute country things. [...]

What’s that hissing sound, Mom?

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

Last night, I went to visit Lee. My sister in law watched James. We drove her home and chatted for a few minutes. My car idling in her driveway. As we pulled out I said to James, “I think I smelled anti-freeze again, but I don’t see any drips in her driveway.” We drove home. [...]

    This week has been long and rough. I’m tired and came home tonight to hear a hissing sound as I parked the car. Yep, the radiator again. Spewing this time. I sighed, “Oh Lord! How much more can I honestly take?” Then I prayed that he will help me to trust and that [...]

This time last year

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

This time last year, Lee was in a county jail. We had lost the appeal (the case which we had 1st won). We knew it was coming. We just didn’t know when. Pastor walked into the store one afternoon.  I didn’t have any customers. Interesting how the Lord works that out. He said, “I wanted [...]
