                        Create in me a clean heart, O God,
                      and put a new and right spirit within me.
                  11
                     Do not cast me away from your presence,
                     and do not take your holy spirit from me.
                   12
                      Restore to me the joy of your salvation,
                         and sustain in me a willing spirit.
                                 Psalms 51:10-12

 shorts, spaghetti straps, tube tops, deep cut neck lines, halter tops, etc.

 Flip-flops can only be worn indoors. Due to the presence of cactus,
 spiky weeds, sand spurs, insects, sharp stuff, etc., going barefoot
 outside is NOT allowed
