cat, hubby, eating, cold

I don't think I mentioned that about a month ago someone dropped off a cat.  It is a beautiful gray female and I think she found a boyfriend last week because there is a big tom cat hanging around .  Now this female car (grandson named her Smokie)is a beautiful gray with a little bit of white on her neck.  The big tom is gray and white.  I can't stop nature and I am sure she will have kittens and I know those kittens will be absolutely beautiful.    I did not feed her at first because I felt that she would move on if I did not feed her.  No such luck so I began feeding her just because I can't stand the idea of letting her starve.  I am just a big old softie.

Hubby was home today ----He is self employed and the work he had was outside, and it drizzled all day long.  And he stayed at home all day long.  It was nice having him with me mostof the day.  Tomorrow he goes back to work.  I am glad he has work.  Too many people have no work at all.

Yesterday someone gave me a big bag of little girl clothes to take to the give a way next month.  When I was there Sat.  The woman that is in charge of the giveaway told me they were having a hard time getting enough childrens clothes.  So I put out the word athat they needed some childrens clothes of all sizes and last night I got a huge bag of little girl clothes. 

Sat. when I went to the clothing give a way I heard a bit more about tent city.  Some of those people were staying in dumpsters at night.  Some of the bigger businesses bought tents for the people so they would stay out of the dummpters.  I am so fortunate ..   My home is not finished and the floors in two of the rooms is just bare wood.  and the walls are unpainted and one of the bathrooms needs to be completed.  However.  I have a bed to lie down in and I can lock my doors.  I have blankets to snuggle up in and I do have electricity.  I am so very fortunate.  Here is a song I love

As the world looks upon me
as I struggle along
they say I have nothing
but they are so wrong
In my heart I'm rejoicing
how I wish they could see
Thank you Lord for your blessing on me.

I've a roof up above me
I've a good place to sleep
there's food on my table
and shoes on my feet
You gave me your love Lord
and a fine family
Thank you Lord for your blessing on me.

I love that song.  I think we should all praise the Lord for all that He does for us every day. 

Eating was a bust today.  I fixed too many wonderful things for dh and then of course I ate with him.  lol  I fixed Edamame  I did not think dh would eat it but he said it was good.  THat is another of those powerful foods that Dr. OZ recommends.  I like it . Who knew that soy beans would taste that good.  I fixed a new recipe it is a taco chicken casserole with cheese.  I was not sure I would like it but the person I got the recipe from said it was delicious and it is.  yummy yummy.  I'm sure it is also fattening, fattening.  lol  I also fixed a sweet potatoe casserole, and some steam fresh corn. 

There is always tomorrow the sad thing is that one of these days my tomorrows are all going to run out and I will never have achieved this goal that I have set for myself.  Tomorrow i will get up with a new agenda.  I will begin anew.  If I wake up tomorrow God will have given me a brand new day to work on improving myself.  Praise the Lord for His patience.

It is not so very cold here I think about 38  but it is damp and dank feeling.   I am so ready for a little warm weather.  Next week the daytime temp will be in the high 40's and one day supposed to get to 60.  Almost a heat wave.  I will not be sunbathing -don/t think it will be that warm. 

Sleep well everyone
God bless
