There is a Christian song that says: “I’ll not be defeated.”   After an awesome, wonderful Christmas Day, unexpectedly (last night) I broke a molar.  I couldn’t help thinking “Satan wants to spoil my day!!”  ~~  I’ve made an appointment with a dentist in Waxhaw but it is still two days until the resolve of my small problem.  There’s a scripture that says “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”  So, I’ll handle the pain.  ~~  Today, I am building (from scratch) a delicious soup with potatoes, carrots, onions, and garlic (in a rich broth).  While shopping (on Saturday), I wanted a head of cabbage, too, but could not reconcile paying $1.99.  (Yipes!!  $1.99!!)
