Today I'm joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom and all the sweet ladies of Happy Homemaking Monday! |
Good morning, Sweet Ladies! 💗
I pray that this post finds each and every one of you healthy, happy, serving the Lord with gladness, and ready and willing to face the week ahead, with all its challenges, head-on and full of joy! Happy Passion Week! 🌴
I must subconsciously be in spring-cleaning mode or something. Yesterday afternoon, over lunch, my husband and I pulled Jesus of Nazareth up on Amazon Prime and watched the full 6+ hour movie (something we haven't done in years), but, while watching, I worked on various projects, some that were on my to-do list for this week anyway, and some that weren't, including sorting through and cleaning out four dresser drawers full of craft stuff and reorganizing them into marked and labeled containers. It felt soooo good to get that done.
Then, I went to bed late (after midnight) and woke up this morning full of energy! (What in the world???) I bounded out of bed, and immediately set to work on my weekly "home blessing". By 9:00 a.m. it was finished! The only thing that I have left to do is shampoo the livingroom carpet and wash the cat's bedding, which I plan on doing immediately following finishing this post.
Wow! 😲 I don't know what's going on, but I hope it continues!!! LOL! 😆
Let's get started on this week's post...shall we?
Right now I am...
Finishing breakfast and enjoying a cup of tea while I work on this post. I'm also enjoying the view out my office (the Van Gogh room) window and listening to the distant thunder roll, unhindered, across the tall-grass prairie.
Cottage cheese on sprouted, 7-grain toast and Irish breakfast tea
The weather...
Cloudy and 56 degrees. We're supposed to get up to around 70 today with thunderstorms this morning, afternoon, evening, overnight, and throughout the day tomorrow. The ten-day doesn't look too bad, but the temperatures are going to be just a little cooler than what I'd like for them to be...highs in the upper 50's and low 60's during the daytime, with nighttime temps in the 30's and 40's. ☔
On my reading pile...
Note: We're still working on eating up that cabbage around here! It's a good thing that we like it...huh??? 😆

I finally get a pair of pinking shears AND located my sewing machine after the move. Am ready to start working on those shopping bags. In fact, I got 11 of them cut out yesterday afternoon!
Celebrating Passion Week and the Resurrection of our Lord, as well as, all the special things planned with family and friends. 💜
Resurrection Sunday 2010 - Granddaughters Liz and Audrey |
Resurrection Sunday 2010 - Grandlittles Audrey, Liz, T.J. and Silas are in search of eggs and candy, but they remind of fairies dancing on the lawn. This has always been one of my favorite pictures. |
Well, Ladies, that's it for this week! I pray that each and every one of you have a blessed and beautiful week ahead!
Until Next Time...

Thanks, Sandra! They sure are! And, yes! We have bison on the park where I work and every year we auction off so many. My boss always buys one every year and let's me buy part of the meat from him. It's all grass-fed, organic meat and it's so good! Have a blessed week ahead! <3
