on a mOndAy

. rocky travels .. a fair amount .

sometimes i get to tag along,

like today for instance.

. sweet .

rocky bought me a lappietop

which means i can now blog

from afar .. for real!

my lappietop is white. of course.

that was my one main requirement.

oh, and the keyboard needed to be

comfy with good-feeling keys. 

i made a case for it and its accessories

cuz i couldn't find a case that pleased all  my senses and i refused to spend the $75 for one i found on etsy that did in fact please my senses. my senses are delighted with what i constructed. ever so much.

i'll take pics and show that next week.

whenever i travel and stay in hotels, i'm always saddened at the poor quality of coffee offered in the rooms. i've begun the practice of supplying myself with the st*rbucks singles. this makes me a happy travel companion. well yesterday i visited st*rbucks {which i actually do *not* do often any more at all. for reals.} to pick up a new singles pack. the Christmas singles packs are on sale. $3.58 for 12 heaven-filled caffeine experiences. such a deal.

:: a bit of Spurgeon in the morning ::

". . . Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, the shout of the fighting believer, the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus. It is the breath, the watchword, the comfort, the strength, the honour of a Christian. If thou be a child of God, thou wilt seek thy Father's face, and live in they Father's love. Pray that this year thou mayst be holy, humble, zealous, and patient; have closer communion with Christ, and enter oftener into the banqueting-house of His love. Pray that thou mayst be an example and a blessing unto others, and that thou mayst live more to the glory of thy Master. 

The motto for this must be, Continue in Prayer."
