Thanks for praying for our finances. We really have to re-configure expenses now that dh's payment went bi-weekly, and this past week? Well, the check never showed up again. We have to call the bank on Monday - so frustrating...
However, the guy we hired to repair the farm truck has it finished - the outcome?
A new water pump and heater core (and some smaller repairs).
She is up and running again. This guy saved us a lot of money on repair costs. We bought the parts and delivered them, and he charged us a lot less than elsewhere.
Thanks again....she'll be up for sale soon too.
On another note, the person leasing my daughter's horse disappeared. She is not paying for boarding and my daughter has no job (yet). Her only options until spring, are to sell her, or donate her to a college (equestrian).
I would like to see the horse stable owner make a deal with my dd until spring, with mucking etc. until we can dig into the ground for fencing here at the farm. I hate to see her lose the horse, but God is in control.
Could you add her into your prayers? Thanks.

I am so glad your truck repairs cost less and will put in my prayers that you will be able to sell it really soon, Income tax time is a good time to sell vehicles and stuff. I am putting your dd in my prayers for the horse and fencing, and for you just because you are dealing with all this stuff.
Take care
hugs

I have learned that to have a good friend is the purest of all God's gifts, for it is a love that has no exchange of payment.

Another update:
Blondie, my daughter's horse is loving her new home here. We were able to get a free bag of feed (thankfully),and rig a blanket out of stuff we had. So far, she's much happier, but very underweight. She also has a large gash on her left back foot. Yesterday it was getting worse.
As for cars, we are still working on repairs for the van.
This week, it's been very tough on finances. We are out of onions, cat food and there is absolutely not salt in the water softener. Just another situation to get through. Hubby doesn't get paid for another week too.
We have had frozen pipes for two days now too. Just another frustration, but we can get through it.
However, I am suffering from what may be the start of a sinus infection, and as you see, there is no money for a doctor visit. They want payment before you go into the room, and that's a $120.00 visit, not including medication. I am having trouble not worrying about it, and I don't want dh to feel bad, since he is working so much overtime for the next check.
Again, thank you for all your prayers. We really do appreciate it.

Kristina,
Things just keep coming at you, and you just keep knocking them out of the park. Hang in there. I wish we lived closer together so that I could help you in some way. For now I will continue to pray for you and keep you close in thought.
Your perseverance is an inspiration to me.
Hugs,
~Laurie
