Fresh tidbits of enthusiam!























Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

Yahoo! The sinks are unclogged! As per yesterday's post, the plumber was here and everything has been restored to tid working order again! What a major tidbitz treat; inasmuch as this has been accumulating since November, 2009. To confirm the plumber's findings, the garburator had been installed in a flat position, which over time encouraged the build up of water; as it had no place to go. Now, it is has been re installed on a 'slope'; thus leaving an open passage for water to flow through and empty out. The plumber also removed one of the original old elbows; as it was more of a hindrance, than a necessary function. This 'streamlining' simplifies and helps to facilitate a 'ship shape' drainage in the future. Also, what may have been a catalyst for the blockage, was a slither of grease that may have escaped down the drain, while I was scrubbing a pot. And, the 'flat' position of the garburator, only 4 years young, became like a 'holding tank' for the water.

Some of you may be thinking: 'Well, why did you wait so long to have this repaired?' Good question; answer being, we had to be a bit prudent with our expenses; as funds were limited at the time. That being said / written, we are thankful that this has now been resolved. Fortunately, the length of time, did not make matters worse; however, had we left it for a bittidz longer, there could have been some major problems.

Today Alan and I went to a major event in the Seik part of town; it is a special time for the Seiks, who are celebrating their founder. My son and his work colleagues had a booth; so we went to support my son. There were throngs of people; of all ages and walks of life. Lots of festive music, free food, and drink; as well as many business' promoting their wares and services. It was a fun and interesting tidbit experience; and, being a beautiful sunny Spring day, added to the enjoyment!

Tidbit - 'Do unto others, as you would have them, do unto you.' We experienced this today, even with all the crowds of people. We also fell upon a 'street person', and he gave us the opportunity to share a witness and extend a hand of friendship. ie By giving him some of our food, that we had on hand. ie A slice of pizza, a couple of green apples, coin of the realm, and a Christian tract. He was appreciative; and his whole face lit up with joy, as he said, 'God Bless' to us. Taking the opportunity as it happens, is what Christ wants.

Bittid - Have a constantly fresh and open mind. If you keep your thoughts and hearts unclogged, petty and / or major matters will not be as draining upon you. Plus, when you maintain a positive Focus upon Him, and give Him daily genuine Thanks, you radiate an enthusiasm that touches others.

Am going to go outside to do a bittid of gardening; while the sun is shining brightly. Also, the picture, shows some freshly picked daffodils, that are still healthily thriving throughout our complex.

Am looking forward too, to watching the Vision Channel tomorrow morning; ie 'Hour of Power', 'Enjoying Everyday Life', and 'Living Truth.' These International ministries (and others) provide enlightening encouragement and inspirational insights. Here again, are their wonderful websites, should you wish to 'Seek and Ye Shall Find' - www.hourofpower.org; www.joycemeyer.org; and www.livingtruth.ca.

Hope to be back later today or tomorrow with some reflective and uplifting bittids!

Peace and God Bless.
