Edinburgh
Outside my window . . . grey & cloudy, the sun is trying it's best to come out.
I am thinking . . . that I wish I had the evening off.
I am thankful . . . that I could "kidnap" THE Man over the weekend & take him out for some early Valentine's Day fun. I took him out to eat at a favorite restaurant & met some friends that he didn't know were coming at a movie theater to see Top Gun at IMAX in 3D & then supper w/our friends. Great day.
From the kitchen . . . tea pot on the stove, I'm listening for the whistle.
I am wearing . . . black jeans, black turtle neck, taupe cable-knit cardigan sweater.
I am creating . . . a peaceful, Christ-centered home.
I am going . . . to wrap up a project before I leave for work.
I am wondering . . . how the Lord will make my plans unfold.
I am hoping . . . that it's SOON.
I am reading . . . still re-reading "What the Bible Says About Healthy Living" by Dr. Rex Russel.
I am looking forward to . . . the cup of tea I'm about to pour.
I am learning . . . keep my ears open.
Around the house . . . I'm embarrassed at what I didn't get done today. :-( I needed to do some important research on the internet . . . well . . . tomorrow is another day.
One of my favorite things . . . the humility of my sweet husband, THE Man, when someone does something for him just because we love him.
A few plans for the rest of the week . . . family time, work, cleaning the house, writing project, working on another project . . .
A favorite quote of the day . . . "'Self-surrender IS NOT the same as commitment.' ~ E. Stanley Jones; Commitment is something I have to do, surrender is voluntary." ~Notes from Sunday's sermon.
Scripture thought . . . "Then He said to them all: 'If anyone would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me.'" ~Luke 9:23 [emphasis mine] I choose to carry my cross for Christ.
A picture thought for you . . .
Isn't this sweet? An Irish Cottage on a teacup.
Blessings from Ohio . . . Kim<><
I love the new picture. The teacup is precious. My mother used to collect teacups and I inherited them. I have some really old ones. Maybe I will take some pictures of them and post sometime
ReplyDeleteI love your early Valentine for your husband. He's already made plans for us so maybe next year I will do something like you did.
As always I love you Daybook Entries. Of course, I also love the quote and scriptures.
Blessings to you and have another Valentines Day too.
