Courage
 
18And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."

In the hour of adversity be not without hope
For crystal rain falls from black clouds.

Painted Toe Society
CV and other of our Painted Toe members were demonstrating last Sunday!
 
Jeanne (center) took Vicki and me to lunch at 240 Union on Monday!
 
Jeanne also presented a shawl from the Shawl Ministry to Vicki
for her exemplary efforts as care giver!!!
YEA!!!
 
On Tuesday, I invited two of my Painted Toe friends to the Denver Art
Museum to view the installation of Sandy Skoglund's (on right) Fox Games.
 
How exciting and interesting!!!
 
(Nancy, Carolyn, CV, Jessica, Julie, Bette, Jane, Carl, Barbara)
We had our very own private viewing with other members of the Conservation Council.
 
Fran, Betty, and Barbara treated me to lunch at Creekside Cellars on Friday.
One would think that I would begin to gain weight!!!
 
 
 
 
Some people come into our lives and quickly go.
Some people move our souls to dance.
They awaken us to the understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom.
Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon.
They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts,
and we are never, ever the same.
