You know you've had a stash collection, a scrap bag, and an ongoing lifetime patchwork quilt that beats any movie plot that I've ever heard of! Amazing, really, when we write it down and truly take a look at how life imitates art or vice versa. No wonder you're scrappy..you have to be to go with the patched up and colorful flow. But what richness, and texture and color this has added to the strong seams of compassion and kindness and love!Michele Bilyeuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979296861999606692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15406271.post-53250735152374349402009-06-30T09:29:58.075-04:002009-06-30T09:29:58.075-04:00My sister is like that, always lending a couch or ...My sister is like that, always lending a couch or a room to people that need a place to stay. she currently has her MIL living with them and a Russian dad with his 2 kids living in the renovated garage. They have a full house and I don't know how she does it. But bless her heart she is a good person.<br /><br />I can admire people that open their homes to others, and you have done much over the years. I hope that one day they will be grateful to you and your husband and count their blessings. :o)jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772053505930801670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15406271.post-25441370617407540282009-06-30T02:07:19.021-04:002009-06-30T02:07:19.021-04:00Wow, that's quite a list of temporary tenants!...Wow, that's quite a list of temporary tenants!

I can still remember an offhand compliment a patient gave me back in the 80s; it made me feel so good, and he probably didn't remember it the next week.Stephanie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613883248899266708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15406271.post-13574154748743379252009-06-29T20:20:05.572-04:002009-06-29T20:20:05.572-04:00He does have a big heart, Cathi--he's the most...He <i>does</i> have a big heart, Cathi--he's the most generous person I know. <br />Me? Not really. I grumbled too much to be considered generous. <br />But we have received help along the way--even living with his stepdad for 6 weeks one time. It's only right to pass it on.Stephanie Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613883248899266708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15406271.post-52010402517879326102009-06-29T15:46:51.522-04:002009-06-29T15:46:51.522-04:00Even if the immediate result isn't positive . ...Even if the immediate result isn't positive . . . . you just never know what an impact you've had on someone's life *s*Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17872055894285312153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15406271.post-83150995810548747302009-06-29T11:24:06.833-04:002009-06-29T11:24:06.833-04:00What a big heart your husband has -- and you too! ...What a big heart your husband has -- and you too!
