In My Kitchen |
It's been over a week since I've posted and I feel like I'm missing in action. I thought I better take a minute to check in and give you a quick update.
The past week has been full of adventures...some of them good...some of them not so good, but praise God! His mercy endureth forever and I praise Him for His mighty hand of protection over all!
On Wednesday of last week, I went with my friend, Laura, to her last chemo treatment. She's done so well with all of this and I'm super proud of her! Thankfully, she is getting a bit of a break before having surgery the first week of October. I ask that you all continue to remember her in your prayers as the Lord leads.
On Thursday our flower bed and the neighbor's tree caught on fire due to a neighbor across the way's burning brush piles. Needless to say, that led to quite a bit of excitement, but it all ended well and with an impromptu pizza party at our house. (How in the world did THAT happen??? 😲 LOL! 😆)
I worked Friday and Saturday. Friday was quiet and Saturday was golden! I didn't get a lot accomplished with what I needed to be working on, but it was the best work week I've had in a long time! I will share more about that later.
We had a good church service Sunday morning and then I worked again Sunday afternoon. It was good. Not many people, but accomplished more than the previous two days combined.
Then, yesterday! Yesterday I took a friend to town to pick up her senior box and go grocery shopping and ended up in the ER after having a severe allergic reaction to the food I was eating while having lunch out. I have a lot more to share about this later, too, but it will be after I get a little further down the road. I just praise God, again, for His mighty hand of protection! It was bad, but He was there. Praise His holy name!
As for now, I need to go. I just wanted to drop in and touch base. I have several posts in the works and hope that things slow down soon so I can get back on track with everything. Until then, please, pray for me and know that I am thinking of and praying over each and every one of you.
Until next time...

Allergic reactions are nothing to mess around with, hope you are doing okay and that you have a great week ahead.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jean! I'm doing much better today. Have an appointment with my regular doctor on Thursday. Will know more then. You have a great week ahead, too! Blessings! <3
DeleteHi Rebecca! I'm so excited to meet another fellow blogger who is a happy homemaker! I just saw Laura's post and your picture with her, what a blessing it has been for her to have your steadfast friendship with her! So thankful you have been there to encourage her through this difficult cancer journey. And how scary to have an allergic reaction to something you were eating! So glad that someone was there with you when it happened. I will be coming back to visit, I love your blog already :) And a neighbor starting a fire, oh that is just crazy! Glad the pizza party made it more fun :) Hugs to you today, so happy to meet you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marilyn! Thanks for dropping in and thanks for taking the time to comment. I greatly appreciate both! As for the part about Laura, believe me, it has been me that is blessed. I wouldn't have missed this time with Laura for anything! I'm actually going to miss our regular visits. Guess we'll have to figure out something else to do to spend time with each other...huh? :D Yes, the allergic reaction was awful! I don't know that I could go through one that bad again a second time. Very scary indeed! Thanks, again, for dropping in! It was nice meeting you! (((HUG))) <3
