On this lovely day at home....
A little Bible... I've got a new NKJV Study Bible that I'll be looking through today. I want to look at the little extras they put in it to make it a study Bible. I'll do some reading in the book of Philippians, too.
A little errand running... A joyous no! I don't even have the van today. It's a stay home day. Praise God!
A little cleaning... just a general clean up.
A little cooking... I've got a nice roast that I'll sear well and put in the oven this afternoon with some carrots and onions. I'll make some mashed potatoes and gravy, too.
A little reading... I'm reading a biography of George Mueller aloud to the children.
A little teaching time... Spelling, math, and such.
A little knitting... Grandmother's Favorite Dishcloth from Joy at Artful Homemaking.
A little computer time... E-mail, linking a few posts to blog parties, reading a few blogs, and a little writing.
A lot of meetings... Another joyous no! I do hope my oldest son will join us for dinner and pumpkin carving tonight.
A few minutes of relaxation, no doubt with a book, then a little sleeping.

Living and loving this life a little at a time.
Your blog is such a beautiful place of peace. But anywhere that is centered on Him radiates that joy!
ReplyDeleteI love the days when I do not run around doing errands and stay at home. Loved seeing your list and hope that you have all your family together for the carving!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a very nice day... We don't go places a lot and when we have to, I yearn for those days that are "at home" days. I like your list... do I have one like it? no... but maybe I should. :) It has been a "fly by the seat of my pants" kind of time... and I should get back to my lists. Thank you for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteI think your page is beautiful and your post for today is lovely. I don't have them often, but a day just to stay at home and do what we love to do is such a blessing. I found you on R&R Linky. I have pinned and tweeted because this is a post that will nudge people to appreciate the little things.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, J. I want my whole life to be centered on Him. I pray His shalom peace (nothing broken, nothing missing, complete peace) fill you. In Jesus' Name.

I long for those days at home now, Joy. I'm afraid I took them for granted for too long, and now I miss them dearly.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful productive weekend.

Clearissa, I am so honored. Thank you. Days when I can be home all day are rare for me now and will soon become rarer. It helps to enjoy the little things as I can.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!
They are wonderful, aren't they Karen. Staying home is such a privilege. I wish I had found joy in it when I could do it daily. Live and learn I suppose. Thanks so much for visiting me and "talking back"!
