TWENTY SIXTEEN - PART FORTY EIGHT

 TWENTY SIXTEEN - 
 PART FORTY EIGHT

Hello folks,

 Friday, 25th November both  of us feeling sick because of  yesterday's trauma  in the smoke filled house - We are  very thankful to our God for His protection.  He truly is an Awesome God.

26th  November, Charmaine's - (Renata's adopted daughter) 17th birthday. 

27th - Family meeting -  Steve, Sue. Andy, Danny,  Andre, Amanda, Ruth and me.  We need  to move to cottage.  New rent is R2800  which Steve and Andy will pay - we must move asap . so that Andre and Amanda can rent the big house. They will install security gates and fencing for the dogs. Also they will put a dry wall in to make two separate bedrooms and they will put in a stove. They will also transfer our DSTV. 

Andy will install built in cupboards for our bedrooms.



They put me in a                     wheelchair  and we go             take a look at the cottage. 

 It has, like everything,
 got advantages and                  disadvantages.  




Monday 28th - still not fully recovered from smoke trauma - also start to feel very negative about the move. Forseeing all the problems and forgetting all the benefits.

Missed out on writing this blog for some reason or the other which I do not know, probablyy because Ruth and I have been sorting goods to sell at garage sale. We desperately need the money.

17th December Biltong machine invaded with ants . Very tedious job cleaning them out . Have to remove each stick of liver biltong and soak it in vinegar and clean machine and rehang.  

18th December, Amandah confirms garage sale. Ruth and I work on kitchen goods to sell. Will finish tomorrow. We have already done the clothing and the  beads and home made jewelry.

19th December Andy and Fiona leave for their holiday in  Australia.  Ants are in biltong machine again by the millions and trillions - we resoak in vinegar and clean machine - not long and the wall is again covered in ants - wipe with cloth soaked in vinegar and spray with Doom.  Seems to have worked this time.

20th Awoke in the early hours feeling completely drained of strength, feeling unable to carry on. I have no strength at all. I prayed and asked my heavenly Father for help. Ate some Marie biscuits a took my medicine and went back to sleep. 

Woke up feeling a lot better.  Ruth goes to town to have car cleaned etc. gone all day.

21st - today is the garage sale. Feeling hopeful have approximately R20 000 worth of goods to sell. If we are successful we can pay the back rent. Do repairs to fridges and tumble drier and also be rid of a lot of stuff that is clogging our home.
