talk and talk

This morning when dh got up I just talked and bless him he just listened to me.  He is such a rock for me.

Then dh and I went to buy groceries and visited our daughter and -wonderful news for me-someone she works with is pregnant and this woman wants me to watch her little girl after she is born.  I love babies and children.  This woman has only known me from going in the business where they work and just listening to my dd talk and seeing how grandbaby acts.  She said she wants that for her child.  I actually felt honored because   I know they could find a babysitter closer to them and,, like it is, she will be traveling almost 40 minutes one way to bring the baby to me, and then of course 40 minutes to come back and get the baby.

Afterwe got back I planted my sweet peppers and replanted some okra and replanted some squash seeds.  

I did something really dumb today,
When dh and I got back from groceries we both wanted a salad and we worked togeather to make the salads.  I wanted honey mustard dressing and he wanted ranch.  so I poured my dressing and tossed my salad and decided I needed a bit more.  I did not realize the I had poured almost 1/2 bottle in my salad and I noticed it after I ate the salad and was putting everything away..   I don't even want to think about how much calories there are,  I only use that occsionally because it is high in calories. 

That was my day. 

Your word reminds me that my body is the temple of you holy spirit and that you dwell within me.  It is from within this temple, dear Lord, that I find myself thinking about your love.  I remember how you have revealed your love for me time and again in the many ways you have cared for me.  You are my provision with your healing, protection, salvation, comfort, peace, forgiveness, kindness, goodness, gentleness,and faithfulness.  There are so many ways you have made it clear to me that you love me.  As I continue pondering your great love, make me aware of how I can show that love to those around me.

Sleep well everyone
God bless

  1. It shouldn't count if you don't realize how much you put on! You ought to get the calorie count for what you intended!

    I think that someone wanting you to take care of their child, having that sort of faith in you, really says something about the kind of person you are. To be sought out like that tells me that you must be a special, wonderful sort of person - and you must have done something right with your daughter! I'm glad to know you, even if it is only through a blog!
