garden, beach, ross

I good today=I kept my calories to below 1500 I think it was 1430  (I am getting lazy about chicking that before i sit down and start typing.  I used to have it beside me so there would be no mistake-I KNOW that it was in the 1400's .  

Igot out this morning with my hoe and worked the soil and made holoes in the dirt and I planted 5 rows of okra (not real long rows) and then I worked two rows of squash.  Dh said that Monday we might put down some cantalope seeds and ,like I said I want some sweet peppers.  Now I know that some people freeze their peppers but frankly I don't care for the texture of peppers that have been frozen. 

Even though hoeing and bending is not traditional exercise -it did take me almost an hour, so can I count that as my exercise for the day?  Not only did I bend and stoop and dig but I walked  the rows 3 times, once to dig holes again to drop seeds and again to cover the seeds up.

In the morning dd and I and little grandson are going to the beach.  we are going to meet my son there and have breakfast togeather and then we will go to Myrtle beach.  I am not going to get in the water I love seeing the water,but not getting wet.  (I know I am weird)   I lived within 5 miles of the beach for 15 years and probably got to the beach 10 times. I used to love it, but once I could get there often it lost it's appeal.  

Have a great evening, and to all the mothers out there,  I hope you have a wonderful mothers day.

Love you all
God bless



Praise of a Good Woman


10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. 11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. 12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. 14 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar. 15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens. 16 She considereth a field, and buyeth [1] it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. 17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms. 18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night. 19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. 20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet. [2] 22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple. 23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land. 24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant. 25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. 26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. 27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. 28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. 29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. 30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
