The weather... Sunny and cool. We're in the fifties.
Right now I am... Taking a bit of a break after vacuuming half the house. I'll do the rest when I get up. I also have a bit of a headache. I'll go to the chiropractor this afternoon and see if he can help.
Thinking... May 1st on a Monday—a sunny Monday at that. It seems like a new start kind of day. I'll be off this summer since I substitute teach. I want to think about some of the things I'd like to do to take advantage of the extra time.On my reading pile... The Nazi Conspiracy by Brad Metzger and Josh Mensch, Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, and At Home with Madame Chic by Jennifer L. Scott. Here's my reading list.
On my TV.... I don't watch regular t.v. I do watch YouTube videos. I recently found The Trek Planner. He finds things on Google Earth, then he goes and checks them out.
Favorite blog post last week (mine or other)... Save Like Nana Did. Be Busy With Our Hands at The Bluebirds are Nesting on the Farm.
Something fun to share... This bubble refill station looks fun.
Blog hopping (newly discovered blog)... Nothing new to share, but I enjoy GDonna.
On the menu for this week... Oh, I've not made menu plans yet. We seriously need to go to the grocery store. I know I'm making beans and cornbread for supper.
On my to do list... Put house back together after garage sale, mend, knit a bit.
In the craft basket... mending and knitting.
Looking forward to this week... I'm hoping to substitute a couple of times and knit with friends. We also have our home group coming Sunday evening to our house for the first time.
Looking around the house... a bit of disarray. I'm getting the house put back together.
From the camera... I've made this cookie recipe since I was a child. I lost the recipe, but I found that I'd written it out for my daughter while I was looking through cookbooks. The recipe was from a Betty Crocker Junior Cookbook from the seventies.
On my prayer list... Salvation, healing, financial provision.
Bible verse, Devotional... "In all thy ways acknowlege Him (God), and He shall direct thy paths." We all need direction from God right now.
Hope you have a energetic week!
Laura
