so elena is back after, what, seven months' absence? it went well. Except Marcel. He's so stubborn about being angry with her for running off and his mental incapacities just keep him from understanding and make him more stubborn. Please pray for peace between them.

And thank you so much for praying today! There was a miniscule amount of drama. Still deceit and just..."worldliness" sinful crap which leaves me feeling...bad. But SO much better than it could have been. One day at a time.

And the vet said my dog Jessa probably strained her back, and she'll be ok after a while. *whew*.

It's been a long day and I'm going to bed!
