dob's odds n ends

I have to say it has been one of the strangest weeks I have had in a long time. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. When you really want change it tends to come your way and often in unexpected ways. Funny, I heard a man in church last Sunday talk about what a mistake it is to believe the old adage "Be careful what you ask for because you may get it." I think this has relevance here.

I asked and I received, I simply received in an unexpected way. So now it is up to me to figure out what to m... read more
