Daybook for 6/21


For today~
Tuesday, June 21, 2011

Outside my window~
the sun is hiding behind some clouds

I am hearing~
the fan on the A/C

I am thinking~
about how very blessed I have been, and
how I don't deserve it at all!!!

I am thankful~
for my freedom and for my family

I am remembering~
sweet times of fellowship with my Hubbie  :)
also, ten years ago this month, both of my
grandfathers went to Heaven

I am reading~
my Bible
A Woman Who Reflects the Heart of Jesus by Elizabeth George
(this is going to be a very good read!)
Food Network magazine just received in yesterday's mail

I am hoping~
to get our family room re-organization finished this week

I am praying~
that my tongue will help and heal others, not hurt them

On my mind~
is a sweet lady who just lost her husband of over 60 years...

From the learning rooms~
I am learning the art of couponing
Some of my favorite sites are:

Noticing that~
we are starting to get some grocery items for **FREE**

Wondering~
why I didn't start this coupon thing earlier?!?!

I am creating~
actually, just hoping, to get some new clothes made
for "R" and for me this summer

Pondering these words~
"The tongue is a fire..." according to James 3:6

"And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue
among our members, that it defileth the whole body,
and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell."


From the kitchen~
Tuesday~steak and cheese wraps
Wednesday~chicken with Philadelphia Cooking Creme (free!)
Thursday~chef salad
Friday~homemade chicken tenders
Saturday~?

Around the house~
Hubbie's nerf gun box reminds me of
the fun we had on Father's Day...that's for another post

One of my favorite things~
is being with my family

A few plans for the rest of the week~
swim lessons for the kids
church on Wednesday

From my picture journal~
a few pictures of our little garden  :)

Hooray!!

Well, our first vegetables of this year have been harvested! :) With many tomatoes on the vines, and more cucumbers, squash, and several zucchini already growing, it looks like our gardening efforts are starting to be seen...what a blessing to see God's faithfulness to me through our little garden!
