Everyone have a great weekend.
Continued prayers for Andrea's strength, hope, comfort, and healingIt sure is and so is the Lake District as my family and I discovered last October!
Update on Andrea - she has pain in her leg from nerve damage following her surgery, but has learned to live with it - meds were making her drowsy. She is also on meds now for folate deficiency anaemia. Thanks to all who have been praying for her.
Very quiet here today. Was out this morning to buy a breakfast fry for hubby as I had forgotten to buy the wherewithal to cook it myself. Will probably go out again at some stage to buy some things at the supermarket.

In my 'capacity' ~as Neighborhood Watch Coordinator
I had a meeting outside my home this morning
with a local housing authority representative and
a representative of the Local Crime Prevention Initiative
We walked around our immediate neighborhood and discussed matters
such as litter, unsocial behavior, motorcycles and bicycles
being driven through the alleys [guineals]
street lighting being upgraded from yellow [sodium] > to 'white light'
dusk to dawn lighting ~beside our home
The crowning and cutting-back of trees and shrubs alongside the alley
and the prospect [feasibility] of gating, the pathway outside
in-effect 'closing' it, to all but, local residents
The Local Authority rep' advised me
that if I could, also encourage, present members of the local Neighborhood Watch
[to take part] in 'form, a community-group [tenants-association]
we could apply for financial-support, for community projects [in our area]
such as 'new' perimeter [property fencing] and even, the occasional street party
iow: whatever we felt could benefit the local area [fostering ...community spirit]
We will see how such things progress, over time
Anyway, I was encouraged by what I heard and will explain
those matters to our neighbors at the up and coming meeting [of the NW]

Hubby was surgically cured in July and his lymph nodes were all clear (PTL)!Many thanks, Gail. The quote on my message notification from Gmail mentions your husband being ill. Prayers for his healing too.
Hello Everyone,
Sister Gail, I'm happy to hear the good news about your husband and answered prayers.
Brother Dave, I'm also glad to hear how well the NW is going for you.
I'm sure you will do a great job. Here's an idea for you to get everyone involved:
Make a simple form for people to list their valuables and serial numbers
of televisions, stereos, bicycles, etc.
If they are ever stolen, the person can identify their property
and get it back if the police recover it.
You'd be surprised to find out
how much recovered stolen property is never returned to rightful owners
because of identification problems.
This same property list would also be useful for losses in natural disasters.
Buy an engraver for a few dollars
and loan it out for people to mark their property.
This information would then be added to the property form above
(i.e. the marking and where it is marked).
Wonderful News, Gail!Praise God!
