oh peanut where art thou?

tonight i need some peanut buddy kisses. (sniff)

charlie and steph and the two granddogs are stranded in iowa only a few hours from st. paul.  tomorrow after the car is repaired they will turn around and go home i suppose.  though i was looking forward to seeing them very much, i was looking more forward to charlie being able to play, even if it was only for a couple days.  i thought it might refresh him a bit for the next leg of his journey.  and for steph to be able to hang out with the girls.  they all love and miss each other so much.

sorry that won't happen at this time. sorry that they will be out the $$ of repairing a broken vehicle. this is not just a measly flat tire...it's a big hunkin deal.  can't discern whether the enemy has just flat out stolen from them or perhaps God has something else up His sleeve.  praying that He will make that evident so that our disappointment will be swallowed up in joy.  it is my absolute belief that He ALWAYS uses EVERYTHING that He allows in our lives for GOOD.   take that devil.  amen and good night.
