I have cucumbers!


Post script at the end of the day.
Just after the excitement of showing the kids the Cucumber and all of celebrating and looking to see it there were any more, We all went to go into the house .Beloved and I lingered, holding hands and cajoling. When Bamm! we went back to the side yard and found the Lodge poles had fallen down! NOT ON THE KIDS OR US! Just moments before if it would have fallen we would have been injure. Beloved assured me he would take the time to drill the poles and put them up more securely. I guess this season is done and the cucumbers will be more easy to access. I am so glad that we have such a band of angles watching over all of us.

We had a smiling plate of Zatervan's with kielbasa and fresh tri-colored peppers and green onion a' dente' Fro supper. With our happy little cucumber.
End Post script.
Good night.




In honor of health and in celebration of Gods bounty "Organic Home Grown Baby Cucumber, Raw Walnut, Organic Plum Salad with organic romaine, tomato and turkey slivers.

I found this little fellow today! The other was smaller that I had in the salad. Today the children will pick it and have cucumber with super! I am so excited!

I still have a few small sunflowers.

This is what is left of one of the giants.
He is totally bent over yet gleefully enjoyed by the birds.

Mr. Willy likes to eat the leaves. I love this photo.


This is the sunflower house, late summer now.
All the green is cucumber. The corn is spent as are the sunflower stalks.
What a surprise! I went out to hang my bird feeder that beloved fixed for me and look what I found!

That salad not only looks absolutely delicious, but so refreshing.

I'm always admiring your sunflower house. As the sunflower stalks are spent, so is Summer coming to an end.

Your lemon cake looks really yummy!! :)

Josh told me he saw both Dash and Dove on the playground at school.
I've heard wonderful things about Dash's teacher. Josh had a fantastic first day too, I was amazed as well.

Tell Dash, I thank him for praying for the rain! :)

Are you still needing to take him to the therapist during school days?

Enjoy the rest of your day!

I took a week off for both kids. Dash has three weeks due to the speech therapist being on vacation. Dove needs O.T. but I think her academic needs to hold priority. I think I'll hold off on that too. I have to start the IEP's for both kids.
I have to go to the knee surgeon in the morning and may get an injection of cortisone so I can start an exercise program to help with the needed weight reduction.

Older women likewise teach the younger women...

• how to love their husbands
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"

Zephaniah 3:17 NLT
"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty savior. He will rejoice over you with great gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will exult over you by singing a happy song."
