I worked today at my "real" job - you know, the one I get paid for. I've been doing contract work during the summer to help make ends meet while we wait on the house to sell. Commuting is expensive. I'm working tomorrow, also. I think the assignment is coming to an end, but it is always nice to have some extra money in your pocket to pay bills. Needless to say, I really don't have the energy to post the rest of the foot series, but I have really enjoyed lurking lately on other bloggers' sites, and I uploaded my Medieval Feast menu (recipes) for anyone who's interested at my other blog. Here's the link: Gathering Manna
Here are some other posts I enjoyed this week:

I would say we got the rain, wouldn't you??

Yes, Deb! We did! That was a quick answer. Our grass is looking really brittle and brown lately! Prayers for your trip and the paperwork!
You don't need to pray for Israel. It has the best weaponry available and obviously feels unconstrained from using it against Palestinian civilians...
I'm fine Heather, thanks; although if my dentist had given me the appointment I had asked for I could very well have been on one of the trains which got hit.
If Hitler couldn't break us by saturation bombing day and night for six years, a few miserable terrorists certainly won't. God does not love those who preach a message of hatred, and kill people instead of healing them. We need to pray for those many poor ordinary muslims who have only ever been taught Satan's gospel.
Glad to see you're in one piece, Ian!
We pray for Muslims, Hindis, Bhuddists, and all other religions a lot - I know that a religion or a person is not my enemy. The real enemy is the prince of darkness who fights against God's agenda.
We pray for those in Palestine, also. I don't agree with bloodshed - whether it be martyrdom, senseless violence, or whatever... God is a God of peace. He sees no color or creed - only children who desperately need a savior.
