I will enter His gates with praise

I will enter His gates with thanksgiving in my heart
I will enter His courts with praise
I will say this is the day that the Lord has made
I will rejoice for He has made me glad.

He has made me glad
He has made me glad
I will rejoice for He has made me glad

Hello

I have had a very lazy day. I needed to go get a few groceries but let me tell you with the cost of gas dh and I agreed to do the shopping after church tomorrow. We stayed home all day today.
Gas had slowly dropped to around 3.35 and thursday evening it started inching up and dh went and filled both cars. by yesterday it was almost up to 5 dollors and stations were asking people to only get 10 gallons. A lot of people were getting all they could even to filling up multible gas cans in the back of pickups. This morning a friend that drives a pepsi truck drove 40 miles and only found one station selling gas and it was up to 7 dollars a gallon and limited and strictly enforced, to only 10 gallons per customer. People were lined up to get it. To tell you the truth I feel that raising the prices like that is price gouging. 7 dollars a gallon, that is just unbelievable.

Dh and I have decided that we are not going to stop riding to church or other worship serivces but we are going to limit other trips or at least combine as many trips as we can. I know that God provides all my needs but He does expect me to do my part.

Calories for today 1545

pedometer steps -6047

exercise was 55 minutes of mowing
burned off 559 calories.

I have lost a few pounds and Iadjusted my statistics for my calories burned to take into account that I am not as heavy as I was when I first started keeping up with the calories I had burned. (run on sentence) What a disappointment, I actually burn 10 calories less for the same amount of exercise. In one sense I am happy that I am losing weight, but still now I have to exercise a bit longer just to burn the same amount of calories.
It is almost like I am now being punished for losing weight. lol

God bless
sleep well
