Good deal Kev! Hey I have found a cord... Does your plug look like this going into the camera? Is this what you needed a plug cord? This one doesn't go into the computer it goes into the wall .... but is this the kind of end that goes into the camera you need??  There are some a lil thinner , I was thinking you needed a lil thinner one. But not sure. Still looking them up!! I am getting close! |

Rain, snow and hail yesterday on and off all day. A good hailstorm this afternoon, but then the sun came out and it's been sunny ever since. Still c-c-c-c-cold though, and a Frost warning.
Neighbours behind planted their garden last week, including tomatoes. They are new gardeners apparently from what I've heard through the fence so they obviously wouldn't have known to check ahead for cold weather. Their tomatoes didn't look too healthy this morning. I haven't seen either of them to tell them that they should cover the plants tonight. It's a shame but not much I can about it.

Yes, we are still in a drought. We get some rain periodically, but not like in 2004 and earlier years. I believe we are at least 5 inches low on rain this year. Hows life down there in New Zealand? Hope you and your family are doing great. Got any snow on the ground?

Jack! I am sorry to hear that! Prayers to you and yours!
I think we will have another drought this year! This month we have only had 1/4 inch of rain! It is supposed to rain this week but they call it , "Possible Thunder showers" which means they will miss us!!

Jack, I'm sorry to hear that too. Is it ok if I ask Johnny to put you on the prayer list at our church?
It rained here most of the weekend but my garden sure loved it. I think NC is out of the drought now and it's really nice for everything to be green again.
Why can't all USB cords be the same size? I looked for the one to my Kindle for 30 minutes the other night.

Jack, Take care. My brother had stage 4 prostate cancer and lasted 6 months, from the time it was diagnosed. He passed away this last February. It moved into his bones, so he had bone cancer as well.
Our drought started in 2005 and is still going on. I think we are polluting our environment so much it is causing global warming and less rain storms. They are predicting rain tonight. Maybe I'll get lucky and get some.

Well the end that goes in the camera is perhaps a wee bit bigger than what would go in a cell phone. the end going in to the comp is a standard usb plug. |

I would be very pleased with anyone praying for me and mine. There could not be anything more comforting.
Compost Farmer, they told me that I had stage 5 out of 5. And as far as agressive types it was 10 out of 10. That was over six months ago and the only times I have felt anything was not right was after what they did to me in hospital. Since I got over that I have had no symtoms what-so-ever and today asked my doctor for some tests to see if what I have been doing is doing me any good.
My prayers go to those who have been affected by thos tornados though.

Jack a friend at church was diagnosed with prostate cancer 21 years ago and told to make his plans. He took an early retirement. He keeps his doctors appointments and does whatever they say and 21 years later he comes to church every week, goes on vacation, visits his children - unless he told you you'd never know it. Doctors don't know our appointment time to die so don't believe it and live your life. Your on our prayer list.
