Edinburgh
For Today...
Outside my window...lovely fall sunshine. The leaves are still colorful, but are falling quickly.
I am thinking...of how life can turn on a dime. One minute all is well, the next - b/c of a phone call, an accident, a good OR a bad decision, etc - all can change forever.
I am thankful for...the brakes that worked on the dump truck that nearly rear-ended me last week while I was stopped at a red light!
From the kitchen...a simple lunch for me, everyone else is at work during the day & I will be working tonight. :-/
I am wearing...jeans, purple long-sleeved shirt.
I am remembering...my Daddy's wonderful sense of humor & his shining blue eyes.
I am going...to straighten up the house, read some of my favorite blogs, go to work this afternoon.
I am reading...Bible: Psalms.
I am hoping...for a great job, SOON, for my sweet DH. This temp job is depressing for him.
On my mind...we will probably be turning in 1 of our cars this week. Trying to stay positive for my family.
I am creating...a peaceful, Christ-centered home.
I am hearing...radio, typing fingers, Maggie the dog's tags jingling as she trots by me.
Noticing that...attitude effects so much in life.
Pondering these words..."Do we realize how important the Word of God, the Bible, is OR do we take it for granted?" ~from Sunday's Sermon, "Is the Bible Reliable?"
Around the house...projects waiting for the $$ to do them.
One of my favorite things...discovering homemade cleaners...or health care...or body care...or face care...that really works.
Scripture thought...Isaiah 57:15 ~ "this is what the high and lofty One says - He Who lives forever, Whose name is holy: 'I live in a high and holy place, but also with him who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite.'"
Plans for the rest of the week...family time, work, fall baking.
Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...
I'm considering changing my header photo...hmmm...do you like either of these pictures or should I keep it the same?...
This isn't my kitchen...but WOW!...I wish it were! '-)
This is the picture that is on the icon when I comment on your blog & is under the "About Me" above.

Loved reading your entry today. I can relate to your desire for better employment for your DH. We have been in that position more than once. I know that you trust in the Lord so the blessings will come. I always love the fact that you want a Christ centered home and that is what it is all about. We always learn from the hard moments and they can be our greatness blessings.

ReplyDeleteIt's true ones attitude affects so much and so many.
I LOVE the second picture, but both are nice.
I am thanking God for the breaks on that Dump truck, too! Glad that He was watching over you! I am relating with you on how fast life changes, also. Mine has been through some real 180s lately, you just never know what will happen next. Sending you ((HUGS)) and hoping you have a great week.
