Hello!
If you're looking for A Thrifty Week at Harvest Lane Cottage, please come back next week. I had some difficult circumstances this week that kept me from doing much of anything around the house. Hopefully, I'll be back to normal next week.
It's been a week of blessing though. If one pays attention, there's always a blessing hidden even in the hard times. I may share about it later, I'm just not ready to talk yet.
I did get to do some neat things this week.
Monday night my husband and I went to my current favorite restaurant— Chik-Fil-A courtesy of one of my dear readers. Thanks so much Sandi. It was a treat! I got #1—a Chik-Fil-A Sandwich, cottage fries, and a lemonade. Yummy!
Tuesday a good friend invited me to go along with her to take our daughters and another of their friends to... drumroll please...
Pioneer Woman's Mercantile in Pawhuska, Oklahoma. It was a long drive, a bit over two hours, but it went as quickly as our tongues. It had been awhile since we'd had a visit. ~smile~ The countryside is gorgeous in Northeast Oklahoma. We arrived just in time to stand in a long line outside. Fortunately, there was shade—at least at first—and a nice breeze. I wouldn't like to be there in the summer heat. We waited in line a couple hours, then enjoyed a nice lunch in the Mercantile. It is definitely a destination. Don't go unless you have plenty of time. We had a great time. Thanks JuLinda!

Wednesday I had some tests done. Not fun, but it's a blessing that I now have insurance so I could do it. Thank you God!
Thursday night I enjoyed a banquet with my daughter's Koinonia Christian club at a local college. Emily was one of the students selected to speak about her experience this year with the club. Thank you Emily!
Well, it was a busy week filled with activity and new experiences—and as long as I am here, I guess a new experience would be exciting. ~grin~
It's been a week filled to the brim with prayer, praise, worship, Bible, and sharing the love of Christ with others.
Blessings to you all, I should be back next week with thrifty week 100!
Enjoy now!
Trusting in God,
Laura

"LORD, it is nothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power; help us, O LORD our God, for we rest on YOU, and in Your name we go against this multitude.
O LORD, You are our God; do not let man prevail against You!"
