Friday at Godfrey Homestead
 God is so good!! We got an unexpected check in the mail today that will ease our money sorrows!!! I know that we are not destined to be rich, but we are wealthy in love and family! Today has been another chilly one, and the sun is still not out. Today is payday, so I'll be going to the grocery store this evening and run some errands.
