All Things Home and Family
Lately, I have read that after all that's been said and done about multitasking... It actually isn't a thing. What am I doing then right now? I put seven jars of deer meat in jars this morning and got them canning. The process will take a couple hours while I do dishes, make a smoothie,… Continue reading Multi-tasking
No dramatics over here today, I promise. This week is the last week before the Holidays begin. I'm listening to Thanksgiving songs and hymns on Spotify. One of the best parts of the Holidays, to my mind, is the music. We sang a song from the Christian Hymnal yesterday that has been sung for two… Continue reading Monday Minding My Own Business
It has been one of those days when I get a feeling of 'ain't nobody gonna call this out'? Today we had a good discussion in Sunday School about how to learn to handle being annoyed as a loving Christian. We talked about forgiveness and to trust that God is growing us up through others.… Continue reading I’ll Tell The World
Just a couple words between the pictures will have to do for this day of Writeeverydaychallenge. I added different greenery and new batteries to the candles in the front door decor. We worked on firewood today again. The grandchildren from a couple houses up the street walked over to help us. Our grandkids are amazing.… Continue reading Saturday in November
#writeeverydaychallenge I have no idea what's in my pen this evening. Let's just see. I save pretty olive oil bottles for reasons unknown to me till the other day when I saw on Instagram that tapers fit right in there as if made for one another. Apparently you think it's really cool and pretty or… Continue reading Ramblings
The sun comes up far in the east and south position, low in the sky, afraid to climb up now. It lands high on the wall, coming in obliquely ... I can't sit in it. It seems weak, not warm and yellow. It reminds me of last summer when smoke covered the sun in an… Continue reading Sunshine #writeeverydaychallenge
It's been every other day. But that's good, for me. I've been happy for this writing challenge because it's making me think about writing every day in a more- than-my-journal way, and to realize that I need to think other than of the events of my life. There are hurdles and sloughs to skirt... Can't… Continue reading #Writeeverydaychallenge
Rain and wind this morning. The time changed so that when the public school bus went at 7AM it was mostly daylight. Except that the cloud cover is so heavy, it is still quite gray outside. Yesterday was a good Sunday. The service started out with a dead microphone. Elv is doing superintendent duties right… Continue reading Monday Journal
The railings are finally in! Elv has been doing this project for Tim and Amy's house for a long time. I mean an hour or so at a time here and there, but yes, for months. Since it's one of his favorite things to do, he hasn't minded. Besides, it's for Amy. We have seven… Continue reading Journalings
It's bedtime and the day has gone with non stop things to be attended to. It was one of those days where what's next is at hand and there's nothing for it but to step into it. The washer broke down on Monday. Fortunately Elv was home when it made its loud dying racket, so… Continue reading Stonehouse Journaling, The Second and Third
