Tackle It Tuesday


Yesterday at 3 a.m. I awoke to prayer for a former neighbor and my family and to try to catch up a bit around here.
The last three weeks I have had knee injections and the nest day oral surgery for the implant.
That put me down four days of the seven.
The next week not even a full week I had another set of shots and was out for two more days. Limping, ice and stacks of undone dishes have become too normal here. Then today seven days later here I am up at 4:44. I was able to do the meal plan and added a task list yesterday.
I am already far behind on the list due to having to take a long trip north.
My trip was a delight it rained as I pulled out of the garage (yes I managed to clear it out! and get my car in! yepee!
It rained as I traveled north.
It was hot and clear and the trip back. Beautiful drive.
I got a lot of laundry done and am longing for a clothes line.
It looks as if I had been on strike here.
Laundry is high piles of come hither..before nakedness is your only option.

A lot of you have asked me how I do so much and so many varied things.
This is my balance wheel. I try to have a pie piece each day. Some days I only get a big slice of homemaking, or education or craft. Other days I have a nibble of everything. Those days are often most relaxing for I have caught up enough on the big wheel and can be a bit more balanced.

Learning to deligate and to write it down has been a big help. My priorities are not forefront on the mind of my Honey.

I love having the order again. When I took down the big board to sell the house I was a tangled mess of thoughts and a pile of little scraps of paper lost in the mess (as perfectly pretense show palace as it was).

This was another big tackle. I have not been beading and after prayer and reflection I discovered that it was just too dark where my table was sitting. I saw it here and it fit within a 1/4 inch! The sewing desk is mounted to the wall so it really mattered that it fit!
See the humming bird feeder? I get a visit now from two female Anna's hummers. One is a juvinaile.

It looks like you are on your way to more organization. I think I would love to craft and sew at your house.

It was exciting looking at your pictures because I love containers. Seeing all those containers, big and small makes me want to go out and buy a bunch of bead stuff just so I will need the containers.
Good work. Hope the healing goes well.

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."
