Tackle It Tuesday
TASK TO DO
pay bills
Knee exercise
This morning as I prepare for a new day of tasks. I paused....
Yes I have these to wrap to stow away
A life was more important than this today.
And with the space heater is warming the garage even as I type this....
I stop and spend a few moments time Remembering Him (Ecc. 12:6)
This looks great now!
As I tend to all my labors I reflect on (Ecc. 2:10).
Realizing that the reward for all of this can be rather vain, empty and seemingly futile.
It is the reward in itself. To think that this is all there is to my day would be a mistake.
Maybe later tonight?
I have the Hoodies to make for the kids but,...in the joy and duty of task of all I have to do I want to stop and remember...Before I am an old woman spent of task and busy of daily responsibilities...I want to stop and Remember Him....
I want to be one who finds delightful words. My desire is to write words of truth correctly. Encouraging goads to spur onto movement my fellows.
I am going to spend some time composing a post that I see (have a vision of) for the other blog.
We have a Party to attend as a family on Saturday and I want to nurture my body. Manicure/pedicure and legs and such. The warmth sounds good. Cold Morning here (Ha)! I think it is 50*?
I found myself an hour to do a spa time for myself. I was just relaxing and praying for (talking to God about)folks I care about. I did a facial mask, lip mask ad shaved the forest off my legs, "timber"...:)
I heard the phone ring in the other room twice and got concerned...
It was my nephew who needed an ear and a restful place to come.
It was so amazing to be in the role of an Aunt to this awesome young man. He arrived with his heart in his hands. I shared some knowledge, experience strength and hope. He had some lunch while I drove to bring the children home. Only to find he was doing the dishes for me. That sweet young man.
Then he met my play date family at the door for they made it to the house a couple of minutes before me. He was very comfortable to rest there with us until it was time for me to go to my 4 pm appointment. Beloved met me at the school.
Thank you Debbie for covering us so we could attend to Doves teacher/parent conference.
I'll have to tell you about that later.
Debbie and I had both put out a roast to cook for supper and we had made her late. My 10-15 minute appointment was 45 minutes long.
After the play date we had both the thought of "Dinner"??? too late to make a roast (as we each had independently planned). So I taught her how to slice it and make broiled steaks which I also made. After supper we played with the kids. It is now bath time.
The conclusion when all has been heard is : fear God and keep his Commandments, because this applies to every person. Ecc. 12:13
Another day.
And if...when all is said and done I may just tackle this tile.
I have a play date here at 2:15 pm
Tomorrow I have the whole house of floors to do. I did not want to do floors to have them a mess by the end of the play date.
Teacher conference at 4 pm
Supper to Make
TO BED AT A GOOD TIME
I must stop staying up to late!

You just reminded me of all the things that I have yet to do. lol
I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way, but it's nice to know that other people need to do their floors and basically just have the same chores hanging out there waiting to be done. It's not just me.
Have a good day!
