Sunday re-Set

 

Stuff needs to get done today so my week isn't so Chaotic...

Morning Sunday School.

And we have new quarterly study books.

My handsome Mr singing in the choir. 

As always, another amazing service. 

I truly Love and Enjoy my church family. 

Seeing the children ask for & receive blessings makes me emotional. 

A light lunch then chores...sheets changed, washed and hung to dry...

Final August grocery run getting September setup for a couple meals.

Social media promotions continue weekly...

*****

Leftover takeout for dinner, relaxing with Mr and some mindless TV watching. 

Until tomorrow for Happy Homemaker Monday,  Be Blessed, Be Safe.

😳Say WHAT….

 OMGee, 2 Saturdays off in a row !!

🤔 Hmmm, what to do? 

Well, this showed up on social media a few days ago so why not?

Well it was a BUST! All it was, was a neighborhood “crafter's” get together…

Oh well, together with the Kid & G’Kid wasn’t a waste of time.

2 of my runner friends did a race in my town while I was at the festival.

They enjoyed breakfast at Waffle Stop where I work.

Some mail that was such a surprise….and so appreciated.

*****

Low key for the rest of the afternoon, and it’s Way to Hot to mow…Mr will be home soon and we’re going to have takeout for dinner 🥘 tonight.

Until tomorrow, Be Blessed, Be Safe, Stay Cool.

Friday FINALLY !!

 

Yes we are…

Had a Garmin Challenge to do and what better day than today…

OH 👍 YEAH 👍 …

Leon’s been taught well, though luckily he hasn’t gone all the way to the roof, yet😏,

And your eyes are not deceiving you, there’s yet another Purr that’s shown up…(sigh) Mr calls him Jr because he reminds him of our beloved Roadie…

All I know is they need to stop coming.

Thursday Thought

 

Work Day for me...check in tomorrow. 

Wonderful Wednesday

1st meeting of the day...

Small break then 2nd meeting of the day...

Remembrance of our girl Andi for National Dog Day...

I 🤔 think my LoveyBoy is broke,  🤣  ..

Wednesday evening Bible Study...

Not just a neighbor but my Friend...

*****

Finally home to relax, eat dinner with the Mr, watch TV, then bedtime !

Tuesday Tidbits

 

Can I get an AMEN !!!

Anyone else getting prepared?

I manifested and spoke a vision out loud a few weeks ago…this map shows groups/chapters of something exciting (I hope).

The Mr and I started the morning with breakfast out Cracker Barrel for the Win!

Then a stop at Lowe’s—because it was right there—to price shop doors for the rental house,

Then…another quick stop at the SIL shop Wiley Electric. Our security lights aren’t working and we talked to him about quotes for porch fan (ours), and price for freezer outlet at rental place that needs to happen this year, and estimate for whole house upgrade. I know it’ll be a bit pricey even with the “family” discount.

Mr and I worked on putting tin around the tree trunks to keep the outdoor Purr hunters from getting birds from their nests…

The rest of the afternoon was just making to-do list for the September 1st carport paint project at the rental house…dinner was Chicken sausage, hash brown potatoes w/Zucchini.

My girl “Queen” always sits behind me during dinner time…should she? No, but believe me she’s come a long way from when she first made it in the house.

After reading the intro I had cold chills, there's lots of Tales from around our county and surrounding counties...reminds me of stories from my Eastern Ky family.-->pleasure read
