Still kicking

 I've been quiet, I know. Sorry. Too much stuff going on. I read a lot, but have nothing much to add.

Went to get new tires for our truck today, they almost wouldn't let us drive the truck home. Come to find out the two front rims were cracked and broke? They said something hard had been hit. How we have been driving all this time, I don't know. But they took the spare off the truck and mounted one of our new tires on that. Two more new tires on the good rims, and the best of the bad rims back on with another new tire. Two new tires came home in the back of the truck, one of the bad rims on the back seat because we needed room for hubby's wheelchair in back also.

Hubby has already ordered two more rims which should be here by the first of February.

All I can say is praise God for watching over us, as always.

Anyway, for this first post of the year, I bring you Seafood Gumbo and....






You all be safe and God bless you all.

  1. I'm glad the Lord continues to watch over you. Better to find out about the bad rims at the tire shop than on the road! (The gumbo looks good, too.)

    1. Exactly, Reverend. Though the shop guy didn't really want to put the better of the two rims back on the truck. He really didn't want us to drive home on it.

      But God has the wheel. :)

  2. Aaargh, Linda. It always feels like something will go on, does it not? Wonderful through God's grace it lasted all this time and was found before it became a roadside issue.

    The gumbo does look great.

    1. Not to worry, Odie. :) Everyone has busy lives.
      It was indeed a bit of an expense. But the truck does drive so much nicer now. :)
