Wise Words from Mother Teresa



People are often unreasonable,
illogical and self-centred.
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind,
people may accuse you of selfish,
ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful
you will win some false friends
and some true enenies.
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank
people may cheat you.
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building
someone could destroy overnight.
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness
they may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today
people will often forget tomorrow.
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have
and it may never be enough.
Give the world the best you got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis,
it is between you and God.
It is never between you and them anyway.

Drywall's done!

Mal is enjoying a brighter office.

We finally broke down and hired our builder to put up the drywall. It sure went fast - 2 days. It was hard because our basement was full of furniture so we had to move everything to one corner, then that evening move everything back in order to finish. All of Mal's books and computer, etc. had to be put away and covered so they wouldn't get dusty.It's not fun drywalling while you're living in it. Then we had to clean up and set up Mal's office again so he could work.

But now it's done and everything looks brighter. However, we'll have to do it all over for the mudding and painting....

Our Ukranian Christmas- Jan.10th

Inspecting Darell's first turkey carving. He did great!

The turkey cookers. It was beautifully moist and tender.

Christmas dinner at Darrell and Jess's.

Juanita feeding Ka- oh no, that's Timothy!
I guess she doesn't know how to eat without feeding someone anymore!

Hanging out at Tim and Juanita's.
