Good Week

Ladies,

It was a great week in Galveston, Texas. We went with our church and met with the Friends Disaster Service to work on homes in the areas devastated by Hurricane Ike that hit in September.

My husband and I worked at a couple's home with several others for 4 1/2 days. They were so appreciative and thankful for the help. We tore out ceilings, walls, drywalled, primed and painted outside, some electric, soffit and facia, and cleaned the yard. I did stay outdoors away from the inside dust, etc.

It felt so good to give back to those in need. And they were able to see the Love of Jesus from our actions. There was no preaching, just doing. And being from Ohio (18 degrees this morning and suppossedly 7 tomorrow morning) what a nice respite from the weather. The muscle soreness is a good soreness, not aches and pains from chemo, lack of estrogen, etc. but the kind that is good for ya!

February 24th was my 53 birthday and when we met back at the church for our evening meal, my husband had the cooks pick up a cake (and only 2 candles ☺) and after singing Happy Birthday, that was the dessert for that night. I do have a wonderful husband (we celebrated our 34th yesterday).

Thanks for asking about our week and for keeping us in your prayers. It is always good to be back home, too.

Love you all,
Libby ♥
