Only 1” of rain since yesterday, bringing our storm totals to less than 2” so far. Gusty at times. Praise Father, Son & Holy Spirit for His unending mercies toward us. 🙏

is moving slow and slowly strengthening but its path is forecast to turn well south of us. It’s currently a CAT 1 and projected to strengthen to CAT 3 by tonight and tomorrow BUT the forecasters are saying the winds will not be further reaching even so! The catastrophic and life threatening flooding is still part of our forecast HOWEVER the rain amounts for our region (including our little town of Naalehu) has been downgraded to 10-15” with max of 25.” Now this is still extremely concerning and many of our friends and neighbors whose homes and businesses were majorly affected or destroyed have already left town. But I’m gonna praise my God in Heaven for every bit of good news I find and hope and pray for more!!!

Feeling rather grateful for 1) courage to clamber around on this roof and 2) the idea to use a boogie board to both protect the aging knees and easily slide around to remove the panels that were starting to come off during . 😅😳🥴

Join with me in prayer through Psalm 31: “In you LORD I have taken refuge…deliver me in your righteousness…come quickly to my rescue…be my rock (POHAKU) of refuge, a strong fortress to save me….I trust in you LORD, I say, “You are my God.” My times are in your hands.”

They went to the trouble of bringing their drill and unscrewing a screw before they realized it’s easily removable. Then smashed it a bit. This is after we already had our first sign post cut down. Our flag pole stake stolen. Come on, bruh. I know you’re our #1 fan cuz you keep comin back! 😜 Get a grip—on a shovel! God’s got a purpose for your life and this ain’t it. Go dig some folks out.

I hesitate to share but I’m gonna be brutally honest—Thursdays have been a rough day to be open since going from a dozen or so sales per day (not great, but as a new location I was happy with it!) to an average of just 2 or 3 sales. Per day. 😳 I’ve been persevering but I just remembered yesterday that I never heard back from the Health Department this week regarding our permit renewal. (Usually a standard procedure with a very quick turnaround.) Then crazy thunder and lightning with a flood watch this morning…so I’m calling it! You all have a blessed day! Hope to see you tomorrow after I get confirmation from the Health Dept.

Such a beautiful day…loved visiting with guests, listening to the birds and watching a gecko clean up powdered sugar on the table. 😜
