Everything is back to the Usual

Everything is back to the usual. My canine tooth is settling after a specialist did a root canal on it through a crown. (I won't tell you how much my insurance did not cover).  The rain has stopped, and the weekend is here. I already miss my visitor from Japan. A real sweetheart. I am sad I had to say a hurried good bye to her the other morning. I think we could have visited for at least a week together. She had such a small appetite as well, and unfortunately she tasted one of my rose shaped radishes, that she found too hot for her palette. The best time we had was limping through Cosco with my broken foot, talking into the night about her travels, and reminiscing about her old school as we drove along King George Boulevard. I think my girls took her out for frozen yogurt at Menchie's as well. It is a different life in Japan, fresh food, a head of lettuce costs $5 she noted as we walked through Fruiticana. We have it so good here, so far. Our visit to Deborah's grave was also very meaningful. We will miss each other, but realize that her walk is unique to her, and she knows her roots are in Japan. We are very honored by her visit.
Here is a little study for the day, that I posted on social media a while ago, for your spiritual edification:
2 Peter 3:1-7 NKJV
Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), [2] that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, [3] knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, [4] and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation." [5] For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, [6] by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. [7] But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
These scriptures below will only make sense for those that have eyes to see and are hungry to understand the end time mysteries.
Daniel 12:4 NKJV
"But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase."
Ecclesiastes 1:9-10 NKJV
That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun. [10] Is there anything of which it may be said, "See, this is new"? It has already been in ancient times before us.
Colossians 1:26 NKJV
The mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints.
Luke 10:23-24 NKJV
Then He turned to His disciples and said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see; [24] for I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear, and have not heard it."
Matthew 11:25 NKJV
At that time Jesus answered and said, "I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes.
Amos 3:6-7 NKJV
If a trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people be afraid? If there is calamity in a city, will not the LORD have done it? [7] Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
