Happy Cinco de Mayo Day!

Good Morning, Dear Friends and Prayer Partners! This is the day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it! The sun is shining brightly and the day is getting warmer, and would you believe it is predicted to hit 90 by the end of the week!  I guess that means the end of spring and summer is here for sure!

My yard guys have already come and gone after blowing all the trash off the porch and driveway and cleaning up the yard a bit. Jim also returns my garbage dumpster, which saves me having to do it. It's good to have reliable help! They don't usually mow every week, since the grass is not growing so fast, yet, and with all that rain over the weekend the street side is really soggy.

Speaking of the rain, I ordered a pizza delivered for the first time in my life, during that rainy Saturday. The young delivery guy came dashing through the rain to bring it to me nice and hot! I tipped him well for his trouble. I am learning to do certain things by myself, but I still avoid going into a restaurant alone. I have seen other women eating solo, but I am not bold enough to do it yet.

Yesterday evening, I went to a birthday party at my friends' house and had portabella burgers, (delicious) lots of salads, topped off with a yummy birthday cake. I was well taken care of by the host, my friend, David. Lots of talk, play and kids in the pool! A fun time! God is good!

This scripture is for all the seniors graduating this weekend, including my grandson, Matthew Louis Green, in Cleveland, TN;

From the Promise Bible NLT:

Jeremiah 30:11
 "For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans
for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days
when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me in earnest, you will
find me when you seek me."


I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving,
joy and love!

Love and hugs,
 Amaryllis
