Helping out at the Crossing Thrift Store. This is Thursday January 6th 2022.


Well we got a sheet, from Debbie (thrift store manger) to come here and pick up whatever is in this one shed. I wish I took some pictures before we loaded. But I didn't. So the lady that is renting this shed came along and opened the door. It is full of furniture. Everything is wrapped in moving blankets plus plastic wrap. It was Pastor Craig, Pastor John and myself. So we started out with some larger items. The truck was full from the front to the back of the truck. 


Plus we filled up Pastor Craig's truck up too. So you can understand how much furniture we had loaded. The next day (Friday) we unloaded it at the Indio Thrift Store. We had furniture everywhere. But as we were driving away. There was a couple of guys willing to help get everything put away, for us. Okay now we need to drive up to Vero Beach and drop off some furniture at another thrift store we sell too. then drove over to Indian river Drive and have another pick up. BOOKS AND 15 SHEILVES. 



Okay for this day we had Pastor Craig, Pastor John and Jeff helping us out with this load. We brought plastic bins and anything else to put these books into. 
I am not sure how many bins we used, I think 40 to 50. All filled to the top too. 
Jeff and John loaded the truck up, while Craig and I loaded the bins up. 


After we got the books in the truck. Now have to load up the book shelves up too. So if you look hard you can see the bins behind the shelves. We are full to the back Now what will we do with these books and shelves? 
While driving back the store I made a few phone calls. I called Indian River Collage, there library. Talked with the manger. Asking him if we could drop theses book off there? He told me sorry but they are redoing the library now and there is no room to store them. 
If you go back in my blog, I dropped off like thirty bins of cook books and others. They loved them. 
I called Port Saint Lucie Library. The manger at the main branch told me sorry they are not taking any books at this time. He told me to call the Morningside Library. They are looking for more books. I got a hold of that manger and he told me sure, you an drop off 25 books. I told him I have 45 bins full of hard back books of many kind of titles and school books. 
Sorry don't want any at this time. Maybe call Mustard Seed Thrift Store? I just laughed and told him thank you for his time. Folks I really don't know where they will drop these books off at?  
I explained to Craig and John about the phone calls. I am sorry, I don't know who else there is to call? 
So for now the truck is full and not sure where they will put them all?
I guess they will face that on Monday morning? 
All I know is, this week -end has been very relaxing and restful. 
I little girl is not felling 100% yet, but is getting better, each day. She went to the Urgent Care on Friday and found out she has Covid. The mild one, like having the flu. Then yesterday I went to get tested on Saturday and my test was NEGATIVE. Is that kind a crazy? 

I guess during our trip to Austin, I was telling you all I how I felt, like I had the flu or something?
Jeanne believes I gave her this. Which maybe I did? 
All I know now is, I am feeling better and she is coming along too.  
Praise Our Lord for all HE DOES. 
Please remember Him during our trials and issues. He is right long side of us each and everyday.
