FOR TODAY 29 JUNE
Outside my window - it's a little chilly and cloudy, although the sun keeps breaking through even though there was a light misty rain falling. Temps are in the high 60's.
I am wearing: black capri pants, a black/white flowered shirt, silver hoop earrings, 3 alex and ani bracelets ("tree of life, bicycle, dragonfly), tangerine polish on my bare toes
I am thinking - about all the items I need to get checked off the "prepare for vacation" list.
I am praising God for - my husband and the 25 years we have had as husband and wife (tomorrow is our 25th anniversary!!)
I am in prayer for - a few close friends who have some monetary issues, illness, and a prodigal child they are dealing with.
I am thankful for - the cooler temperatures as we finish up re-painting our shed.
From the kitchen - dinner tonight: grilled honey mustard chicken, roasted sweet potato wedges, steamed peas,cucumber salad, watermelon.
I am creating - a photo book of my daughter's graduation from college.
I am going to be - cleaning, packing for our Cape Cod vacation, running errands, helping to strip old paint and slap on new paint (shed)
I am excited that - my husband and I will be alone in a rented cottage on Cape Cod for 4 days before our daughters join us!
I am hoping (trusting) that - my daughters will be safe on the highways this upcoming week
I am looking forward to - our vacation alone AND with our 2 daughters, exploring a new to us part of Cape Cod and re-visiting some fave spots
I am learning -to just lay everything at the feet of Jesus BEFORE trying to do things on my own!
I am reading - I'm finishing up You and Me Forever: Marriage in Light of Eternity, beginning a personal devotional book titled Restless (because you were made for more) and just beginning a library book titled Descent about a family of hikers.
One of my favorite things - listening to Vivaldi as I clean the kitchen
A few plans for the rest of the week - groceries for the cottage, putting stops on the newspaper and mail, finishing up the packing, dinner out tomorrow evening as we celebrate 25 yrs of marriage, finishing up the shed project
A favorite quote for the day -
A favorite Scripture thought:
