I took one of the sisters I visit teach to lunch today. Her name is Lynne Ritz. We went to Firebird's Grill. I love their coconut shrimp sampler plater which is what I always order. Lynne is allergic to seafood so she ordered the cilantro chicken. We enjoyed our loaf of hot sourdough bread and butter. Lynne is from San Francisco so she loves sourdough bread. For dessert we had the creme brulee. Yummy delicious! I let Lynne take all the leftovers home with her.
Lynne told me she was abused as a child by her mother. She has been married 4 times and has been abused by others in her past. I was upset by some of the things she told me. My heart goes out to her and I realize how very blessed I have been in my life. What can I do to help other sisters know that the Lord loves them in spite of their circumstances and how they are treated by others?
Harold, Vickie and Dennis came to our house this evening with three U-Hauls, two trucks, and a trailer. They helped us load one of the trucks with the things we are taking to the cabin this week and then they drove the other truck home. I am grateful to them and their help. The truck we are driving will not cost us anything and it is even filled with gas. Thanks so much Harold!
