Seeds came up today the garden is happy. More and more are showing. It brings me great joy!

I am happy. Full full day. Just resting with the family and enjoying the sounds of my sweet Daddy Man washing up the supper dishes...that is just the best. When Monday Morning I can rise to a clean kitchen and an open morning schedule.

Interior decor study filled my morning with pleasant ideas to create around the house, and the garden studies of Saturday have me full of ideas there. It is fun to just study. To learn about the things I have interest in.
Just a few more days and I will be in Florida! Still sorta amazing to be doing so. Angie is taking good care of my transportation and bedding and I just need to get there. I feel like I will either arrive and fall on the cot and sleep for 4 hours or just be so excited that I will be wide alert x4.

My knee injection appointments were mixed up and the message was overlooked because someone (a kid) played them without telling me. So the shots will not likely happen until my return.
I am vivacious creating again. It feels so good!

Hope all of you had a good weekend. Tired woman...the extra child left for home at 6 p.m. and at the arrival home we had two more come to play with Dash. Daddy man walked them home while I plated supper.

'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"
