I'm so awesome

You know what? If you have a bad day (see previous post), just give it some time. It always gets better. Yesterday and today have been great. Sunny weather. Short work days. And lots of progress on the homefront.

Over the past two days I have removed the carpet in our guestroom ALL BY MYSELF. I peeled up the carpet, yanked the carpet pad, and with knee pads, safety glasses and a pry bar, I worked up all the tack strips and staples. Then carried it all out and shop vac'd. Also, we have furniture in there and we've run out of places to take it, so I had to scoot those around as I worked. (Ok, Jeff helped with that part.)

I'm so awesome.

***February 14***

If I could speak in any
language in heaven or
on earth but didn't love
others, I would only be
making meaningless noise
like a loud gong or a
clanging cymbal. If I
had the gift of prophecy,
and if I knew all the
mysteries of the future
and knew everything
about everything, but
didn't love others, what
good would I be? And
if I had the gift of faith
so that I could speak
to a mountain and make
it move, without love
I would be no good to
anybody. If I gave
everything I have to
the poor and even
sacrificed my body,
I could boast about it;
but if I didn't love others,
I would be of no value
whatsoever. Love is
patient and kind. Love
is not jealous or boastful
or proud or rude. Love
does not demand its
own way. Love is not
irritable, and it keeps
no record of when it
has been wronged.
It is never glad about
injustice but rejoices
whenever the truth
wins out. Love never
gives up, never loses
faith, is always hopeful,
and endures through
every circumstance.

May You Always
Experience This
Kind Of Love,
Dr. Howdy
