Wow I fixed it! It is the new blogger editor a page break I think?

Well folks had a full day. I got the free garden soil and loaded it this morning. Met a wonderful woman who has many similar interests. It was a 5 foot by 15 foot by 2 ft deep bed of the most beautiful mix  of vermiculite, compost and mulch. I stopped and got 15 blocks at a 1$ each and made a bed for the lettuce. There is a lot of gardening and home decor going on here. Play dates as well. With the spring break I think the house will be busy with the many kids who are friends with mine who will need a place to be.

I will try to get some photos tomorrow. I am so blessed all I have need of....Ask.
the potting soil is just this gardeners delight. My body had an all day work out. Loaded the dirt into the truck, hung a drape, worked in the class with 6 kids. Had a kid over to watch a movie with my kids...Then I unloaded the 15 block and used the wheel barrow to get them into the garden. Made the new bed and lined it. When Steve got home he unloaded the soil as I finished up the raised bed and watered it real well. Tomorrow I plant lettuce perhaps and herbs (seed).

LAUNDRY!!!! need me too.

It is a good life to see the supply come with such sweet souls living...This ol globe gets a bad reputation that there are so few good folk left. Well I am just really amazed at how many of them have come across the path with me.

I am really looking forward to Florida. Got to grow in this being loved thing...need to learn to trust it will be alright (safe) to receive it. Came up for me this week that I can love easily (pretty much) receiving it though just cuts me wide open...slays me sorta. That old baggage. Gotta work at setting it down. My job this week for me is to accept my humanity with balance of course. I do not have to be just right., and when I'm not it will be just fine.

'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."
