Edinburgh
For Today...
Outside my window...BEAUTIFUL! Lots of sunshine & high, whispy clouds. A little humid, but I'll take it.
I am thinking...this morning, as a friend & I were going to the country stores, the Old Order German Baptists where having a foot-washing at their Meeting House! TONS of horses & buggies...little kids running around in their head coverings & straw hats...and me w/o my camera! RATS!
I am thankful for...a little time alone.
From the kitchen...a pot of laundry detergent cooling on the stove. lol Already made more toothpaste & face wash. I'm working tonight, so DD#2 will be cooking supper.
I am wearing...jeans, melon-colored shirt.
I am remembering…my gr-ma's huge garden. I was just telling a friend how amazing it was that the last summer my gr-pa was living, she kept that huge garden all by herself, even though he was too sick to help her.
I am going…to test out my 'gardening chair' while I weed the garden - to save my knees & back - & plant some tomato plants.
I am reading...Bible: Proverbs & Joel.
I am hoping...that our country will survive.
On my mind…my mom, my family, $$.
I am creating...a peaceful, Christ-centered home.
I am hearing...the radio, a passing truck.
Noticing that…"If Momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!"
Pondering these words…I should not let the culture determine who I am. The culture DID NOT make me ~ GOD did!
Around the house...finsihing the laundry detergent, working in the little garden, general straightening.
One of my favorite things...drives in the country.
A Scripture thought...Hosea 12:6 ~ "But you must return to your God; maintain love & justice, & wait for your God always."
A few plans for the rest of the week...work, doing a few homeschool assessments, getting my hair cut! Woohoo! I'll look like my blog photo again! '-)
Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...
Obviously not a pic taken today, :-) but this is the Old Order German Baptist Meeting House that I mentioned earlier.

Maybe you posted about it in an earlier post, but I'm curious about this garden chair. I love my garden, but weeding it is definitely hard on my back, which is a problem for me anyway.
ReplyDeleteKendra ~ it's a little chair my DH bought me at Lowe's or someplace that simply folds up when you're not using it. It's metal & has a little seat; it's made in such a way that that you can either sit on it - w/the seat up about a foot off the ground - or you can flip it over & rest your knees on it to do your work.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll take pics & blog about it! lol
