Another day in July

FOR TODAY (July28)... I can get up at a nice hour and get ready for work without having to drive a whole hour--I am working at home town , but i do have a birthday cake to decorate for one of the bosses

Outside My Window...well , right now it is dark so will have to wait until tomorrow to tell you! Sunday we had all kinds of weather sunny , cool , cloudy, windy, rain and finally a nice sunset

I am thinking... about what to put on the cake, probably one of the yellow lillies and some ivy or something

I am thankful for...for Sunday to putter around the house, my children, How good God is and that is the Creator of my life, We are worth more than sparrows to Him, although i don't see too many sparrows but i do see lots of chickadees, but it is amazing of all the things and people in this world, we--I am still loved by Him.

From the kitchen... I made peanut butter cookies today and bread that i think has an Italian origin with sage, green olives and black pepper. You can see it in the picture below. It is really yummy, i ate have the cookie sheet full!!!!!!

I am wearing... should i really tell????? a long maroon colored bath towel!!!

I am creating...a mess in my house sorting thru all my junk , i really want to throw some of it away

I am going... bed soon, getting up probably at 6:00am --creature of habit!!! read a bit, decorate the cake, go to work and come home at 5. sounds pretty normal eh!!!

I am reading... the Bible every morning and night and finishing Annapurna and i am going to read a page in patriarchs and prophets.

I am hoping...my clothes are dry so i can change from this towel and it is so here is something else to wear

I am hearing...the beeper on my counter top stove

Around the house... everythings looks just as neat as it did last week, moved most of plants outside so they could get some sun when it came out, they seem to like it, I had dinner out on the porch today

One of my favorite things... Peace Roses, the color of pink is so intense and delicate

One More Week

FOR TODAY



Outside My Window... is a wall of dark cloud that envelopes the town in rain, but beyond that is blue sky and a sun that is shining thru giving gleams of light into this dark world!! Trees are absolutely still, not even a leaf is moving. Awesome!


I am thinking... there is sunshine for hope


I am thankful for... for this day of work even thought i dread going, but i am thankful that i have this day and this next week to work--better than not working!


From the kitchen...I am making another salad for breakfast!!!! with stuff from my garden and on top will be a hemp dressing as usual and nuts and ground flax

Hemp Dressing

3 limes -extract the juice
some Sea salt - pinch or four or five shakes
2 medium pickles with garlic and about a tblespoonfull of picle juice plus about a tsp more
about a quarter cup of hemp
1-2-2 1/2 -3 tbsp maple syrup

I know that this is not your typical recipe but i don't measure and it turns out different everytime but still tastes delicious, hope it turns out good for you!

Anna purna - this mountain climber is up to 25,000feet now and they still haven't found their main peak, running out of food and it is quite cold, still getting along with the villagers and each other, and seeing lots of women, but climbing the mountain decending and ascending for some peculiar reason i don't understand mountain climbing i guess!!!!

I am hoping... for money and a full time job and to get out of debt!, also for my kids to love the Lord Jesus and be ready when he comes in the clouds of heaven!

I am hearing... people driving their cars home from work, the neighbor couple coming home from a walk--i can hear them talking!--, and the silence that is around me

Around the house... are boxes and stuff all over because i was loking for this mouse!!! Now I have to put it all back --- no mouse!
