Laundry Fairy AWOL Again

      I must ask, how is it that whenever I am set on a mission to catch up laundry, the laundry fairy goes missing?! Maybe I'm mistaken, but doesn't this seem like extreme dereliction of duty??
   Anyone else having this problem with her?

Temperature in My Car

Temperature in My Car

  Hi there! I've been wondering how outside temperature and sitting a car in full sun translate into inside temperature. I've got an outdoor thermometer built into my car and have added another to the interior.
  Right now my outdoor thermometer reads 48*F and my indoor reads 80*F. That's a huge difference!!
  My car was sitting in full sun all morning with all windows up. Then I drove about 15 minutes with front windows down a few inches. Still toasty in her for my lunch break.
  I will try to update this regularly.

Genesis 39:21

"1611 KJV. Genesis 39
[21]¶ But the LORD was with Ioseph, and shewed him mercie, and gaue him fauour in the sight of the keeper of the prison."

    Even wrongly put aside in a prison God still blesses those whom wholeheartedly serve Him.
