FOR TODAY:

Outside my window…the sun is rising, the birds and bugs are chirping.

I am thinking…I’m surprised I’m not more sore / tired from working in the garage almost all day yesterday.

I am thankful…for an amazing church family.

In the kitchen…bagels and cream cheese for breakfast and breakfast pork chops for supper.

I am wearing…jeans, a salmon colored t-shirt, no socks or shoes. (HA! Same thing as last week.)

I am creating…a cleaner house for J’s party. (I didn’t have a better answer…sorry…LOL)

I am wondering…what is up with the dog job I was supposed to have. I needed to change my start date and have yet to hear back from her. Weird, I think.

I am reading…The Coming Revolution by Dr. Richard G. Lee (review).

I am hoping praying…for everything associated with 9/11.

I am looking forward to…J’s 16th Birthday party Saturday – we have a little over 50 people coming…it’s going to be a blast, Lord willing.

I am learning…how to keep my mouth shut. (Only the Lord has such power!)

Around the house…straighten up the basement area, clean for the party.

I am pondering…the strange ways of my family.

A favorite quote for today…If I do not give a friend “The benefit of the doubt,” but put the worst construction instead of the best on what is said or done, then I know nothing of Calvary love. Amy Carmichael

A few plans for the rest of the week: today ~ finish putting stuff back in the garage (we cleaned it up / out so we would have a place to put everyone if it rains during the party Saturday), 4H meeting tonite; Wednesday ~ J guitar lesson & meeting; Thursday & Friday ~ work at the library; Friday ~ pick up cake / make cakes at home; Saturday ~ PARTY!; Sunday ~ meeting.

A peek into my day (yesterday)...see pictures below

I forgot to take a pic before we started…so took a pic of everything we took out:

Have a wonderfully blessed day!
