Tackle It Tuesday






Good Morning!
"I think I can make it now
It is gonna be a bright, bright, bright sun shinny day!"

I went for a early morning walk with Dash done
My Honey is off with his lunch. done
My chores are rather caught up for the first time in as long as I can remember!
Today I have the bills to write out.
The master Address list to type up
I would like to have some shirts ironed up for my Sweet heart.
Sew Lady Love onto my Bible Bag
Read my Bible some
empty the dish washer done
Do some of the kids laundry (I finished ours yesterday!)
Make a meal for lunch another for supper. done
For lunch Dash had Elbow macaroni and bottled sauce
Dove and I had left over cut up hot dogs and Boston baked beans
On the menu for supper
Grilled chicken with Peanut Sauce
With coconut clove sushi rice
Carrots with ginger
In the desert I try to do all my cooking and hot chores before 1P.M. in the summer time
Utilities are cheaper.

Peanut Sauce
1 cup natural peanut butter
1 cup hot water
1/2 cup distilled white vinegar
1/4 cup Tamari or Soy sauce
1/4 Molasses
1teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

In a small saucepan whisk together, heat through, but do not simmer or boil; cooking can cause the sauce to curdle.


I set this aside and will use the micro wave to reheat it tonight.

I used the 14 oz can of coconut milk
1 cup 2 oz of water
1 1/2 cup sushi rice ( this is a moist sticky rice ideal for rice pudding)
1 teaspoon of clove (yummy sweet)

I will broil or grill the chicken breast on bamboo sticks tonight.
Carrots With ginger
Make some cookies or muffin or something. Use what I have to create for the family wonderful savory things to enjoy.
I need to grind flour. I have a grist mill out in the garage.
I need to write out the list of curriculum I have to sell. List other things that we can sell as well and begin to clear out the garage .
We are going to sell our camp trailer, so we need to set up a time to empty it and take photos.
Work on advertisements.
Beloved needs to see when our storage contract is up. We need to tow the trailer home.
I will be reviewing the idea of setting back up my sewing room and art studio. It is one more week until we sell or stay.
Research different budget form types for a zero budget where each dollar is a signed a place.

Gods glorious Will Be done!
His loving lessons be gained.
Freedom be had!
:)

I just feel good!
I feel interested in life!
I think I am getting over the hump of the bio chemical imbalance. The depression is breaking up. Yesterday I felt motivated and happy all day. My good friend Julie is home safe from Africa. I had a day of her presence here. It was wonderful to fellowship over coffee, laundry and child care. We are so at ease together.
Beloved and I worked some on the budget and have a plan to set a course with high hopes to have all debt paid off on the medical and a small savings set up by December. The Federal refund came in yesterday and It will buy us the life insurance on him (HUGE relief!), and pay a large part of Doves braces off. The economic stimulus check may pay off the braces and a good part of my implant surgery percentage. We are over joyed at the thought of a goal to have an emergency savings set up. Inch by inch. Then we can raise the percentage of our 401k and get our savings retirement up to a better momentum. We have a small start on the kids college fund, then it will be our quest to start attacking the mortgage. We have a strong plan.
This will take a lot of hard work.
I will try to sell what I can and clear out the things we no longer have need or desire of.
Now selling is so hard for he and I.
It is not in our nature to do so.
So much easier to just give.
This will really exercise us in big ways.
OOOooo..... Character muscles:)

• 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."
