Edinburgh
For Today...
Outside my window...beautiful sunshine & beautiful 'new' green! A few small puddles & fallen limbs from trees after last night's storm. Emerging color. Thank You, Lord, for the new life of spring.
I am thinking...how glad I am to be off today.
I am thankful for...still having our home & cars after such a terrible financial year.
From the kitchen...making a new loaf of bread, I'll be the only one home for lunch so I'll probably have an Amy's pesto tortellini bowl & maybe tacos w/my homemade pico de gallo for supper.
I am wearing...jeans, green long-sleeved t-shirt, brown hoodie for the chilly morning.
I am remembering…what I've always told our girls: "It's the little things that mean the most."
I am going…clean the house & work on the training manual I have for work.
I am reading...Bible: daily Proverbs & Daniel.
I am hoping...that one of the great jobs DH has applied for will hire him, QUICKLY, b/c his very low-paying temp job ends at the end of this month. :-/
On my mind…bills & praying that our girls make good choices.
I am creating...a peaceful home.
I am hearing...those morning sounds: laundry going, radio, DD#2 puttering around & getting ready for work, my typing fingers...mingled w/birds outside the windows.
Noticing that…last year's cilantro, in my herb garden, re-seeded itself & is already coming up! It's even spread a little!
Pondering these words…"Some change is so subtle that we don't even nitice it. Some change is drastic & swift. What God did through Jesus Christ was so drastic that it changed the dynamics of the whole world!" ~ Pastor Shawn Hess, Easter, 2010.
Around the house...laundry (laundry, laundry!), general cleaning, a little baking...
One of my favorite things...my 2 favorites birds: red-tailed hawks & red-winged blackbirds; favorite songbird is a robin.
A Scripture thought..."A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control." ~ Prov. 29:11. Thank You, Lord, that You must be making me wiser w/age; thank You for how You cause me to calmly stand firm w/my extended family.
A few plans for the rest of the week...Spring Fling meeting w/the ladies on the planning committee, taking a friend to the farm stores for the 1st time, work, family time.
Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...
My 2 favorite birds...TOGETHER! Who'da thunk it? '-)

ReplyDeleteThat Flaxseed Bread looks and sounds good. I may give that a try next week.
ReplyDeleteI pray your husband has positive results on the job search.
That picture is AWESOME! I have never seen a smaller bird piggy backing a larger bird like that!
