Still Adjusting

Although I've been here a little over 3 months, the weather still amazes me. Here it is January 30th and at 6pm it's 80 degrees. WOW!

Any Way You Bless Me Lord , I'll Be Satisfied

I'm still finding out more about my neighborhood. Last week I happened to look on the back of my grocery receipt and saw a coupon for a cleaners about five minutes from my apartment. The coupon offered any garments prepaid would be drycleaned at the price of $1.59; no limit, and offered one day service. Yeeha ! Driving back, I realized a shorter route back to my apartment, which took me past a used bookstore. I stopped in and saw to my amazement Ken Follett's book Fall Of Giants, the hardback edition ! This book is still at bookstores for the regular price of $30 dollars and at Sams Club for $19.75. Of course I grabbed it, when I inquired about the price , I was told all hardbacks were a flat rate price of $2 dollars ! I purchased it and went out the door grinning as if I had found a rare gem, to me I had. I'm truly learning blessings can come in various ways.
