Tackle It Tuesday

Mercy!

On this table I have the Christmas cards, the kids stuff to put away.
Then after school tomorrow (because I have to watch 2 kids for a Mom after school today) we decorate those cookies we made.
I have the bills to write out and to send,
also paper work to sort and toss and file.

I maid the lunches for the children and took them to the school
The bills are paid and ready to mail.
I got the Christmas news letter done.
and around 30 Christmas Cards done.
That is all...Where does the time go?
I have to go get the kids and then have 2 extra for the afternoon.

Dash wanted a tortilla with refried beans for supper, so I went to the grocery store. They had three specials I wanted to get in on $7.79 a pound roast for 1.79, 18 count eggs buy on get one free and a coupon I had for a free salad mix valued at 3.79. So My bill was 86, and I started to step away with Dash distraction and looked down to see they neglected to give me the credit for the specials. I went back to the register and walked away with $50. refunded me. I got $86. worth for $36, and Dash got his tortillas.
Beloved came to get me around 9 p.m. while still at task.
That blue basket was fill of little scraps of papers with phone numbers emails addresses and little important notes. It is almost empty. I transcribed them all onto two yellow pad sheets front and back fine print. I was able to address another 40-50 cards. I have yet to sign and place a news letter into them. I felt food to make contact with so many who I have neglected to do so with this year. So many old friends who also have such busy lives. Then there are those who I let go off who have years past fallen away from my radar into the promise of only seeing them again in the by and by. I still think of them and pray. Thats the best contact with some. :) Many old acquaintances are forgotten. Life is just that way.

Beloved and I are meet in his office to watch old reruns of "The Office" , a VERY funny show that we enjoy. Then it was off to showers and bed by 10:30


YIKES!
This was not touched yet
I have all the records to go through to essentially do the medical deductions for 2007 for Dash to have the coverage at the clinic at St. Joe's.
Then all these things need to be made
packed and mailed.
Wrapping of gifts for the kids as well.
I got the kitchen done part way.
There is laundry waiting to be hung in the master closet.
YE HAW!

Looks like my house, except I have piles of clutter all over the place. No matter how hard I try, I clean one up and 3 spring up in it's place.

How do you manage to do all this work sweet soul.I am amazed.

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)

By Maya Angelou

'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."
