For Today...
Outside my window...beautiful, sunny, fall day! We've just hit our height of color so I'm enjoying the beauty of my favorite season while I can.
I am thinking...of the things I need to do before I go to work.
I am thankful for...my hard-working, loving, Christian husband. <3
From the kitchen...baking another loaf of flaxseed bread & making laundry detergent.
I am wearing...jeans & another favorite hoodie from my 'Lakeside' collection.
I am remembering...how busy our house used to be when the girls were little & we were deep into our homeschool year by now...school work, field trips, ballet, gym...I think I miss it all more than they do! '-)
I am going...to go to work later today. We should be getting in our organic mineral make up line this week & I'm excited! You can take the girl out of the make-up artistry business, but you can't take the make-up artist out of the girl! I LOVE to play in all that color. :-)
I am reading...Bible: Psalms; & when I have the time: "Jenna's Cowboy", Christian fiction.
I am hoping...once again, for my DH to find a great job.
On my mind...I am waiting, expectantly, on answered prayer! :-)
I am creating...a peaceful, Christ-centered home.
I am hearing...radio, typing fingers, the rustling of leaves blowing in the wind outside my window.
Noticing that...the wooly worms around here are almost completely black! Yikes! That means a very cold winter. :-/
Pondering these words..."If you pray & aren't waiting expectantly on the answer...then why pray?" ~Kim Wolf<>< :-)
Around the house...general pick up, laundry...I need to take the scissors to Maggie's shagginess (the dog...not a daughter! lol).
One of my favorite things...rich, fall color.
Scripture thought...Eph. 6:19-20 ~ "Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should."
Plans for the rest of the week...as much family time as possible, work, trying to make time to go the cemetery to put flowers on Jessica's grave for her 25th b-day...can't believe she would be 25 on Friday! Wow.
Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...
I designed Jessica's stone, myself. It has a little lamb on one corner & a cross w/dogwoods on the other (covered by the flowers), w/Matt. 5:8 across the top.

As usual I feel the spirit of your words and I always love your quotes. The grave stone is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you!
I was thinking... As I clicked to your blog that I like the feeling I get when I check it out. The beautiful music, the soap recipies, and different things you post. I feel at home, in a strange sort of way. Just thought I 'd share that with you. I don't always comment, but I enjoy your blog. :)
ReplyDeleteThe gravestone is beautiful. Beautiful and sorrowful. Praying for you!
