My Day So Far......



I I thought I'd participate in this Weekly Journal about our day.  It's after work, and I need to relax and do something fun.....it's late afternoon and my brain is tired from dealing with little preschoolers with all of their language needs today so I'm linking up with other women who do this journal meme.  Read more about it by going here to Melanie's site.





  Today’s date

17 September 
(my youngest sister's birthday!)

 One chore in my home I keep putting off
vacuuming the basement

Is there anything in my fridge I really need to throw out.....if yes, what?
Nothing, thank God!

 What are you reading?
A Year of Living Danishly (non-fiction)
Malachi (Old Testament)
A Walk Across the Sun 
(Fiction, about the trafficking issue)

Scripture verse to share
"My name will be great among the nations, 
from where the sun rises, to where it sets...."
Malachi 1:11a

   What’s the weather?
Partly sunny, temp is 82
and high humidity!

 What are you wearing?
My work clothes: Cream colored long shorts
Light Blue Polo tee-shirt
barefeet, blue and pewter earrings,
dragonfly pewter necklace

A photo to share
the high peaks as seen from the pond
at the start of Rooster Comb Mt trail
that I climbed last weekend

A prayer request
for the people down south affected by Hurricane Florence
for my husband to lose some weight

  A creative project in progress – in reality or still in your thought process
I've been working on a Scarlatti sonata in my spare time

 In the kitchen – is there a special dish you plan on cooking or baking this week
Yes, I'm going to make apple crisp for Friday evening

 Something humorous – a photo, graphic, quote?



 Something on your mind you would like to share
our pastor really challenged us yesterday with his sermon.
He based it on Hebrews 12:1-2....about how to keep on running the race, even when we feel like giving up.

It was so good to have you join in today, Faith!

I love the verse you shared from Malachi is SO good. I can't tell you how many times of late I seem to be hearing from Him about the sun...and the moon. There must be a message here for me, from Him. :)

I am checking out the other book you mention here about A Year of Living Danishly.

I will be remembering your prayer requests, too.

Oh...and today (17th) was also my parents anniversary. :) Happy Birthday to your sister!

Thank you for joining in, Faith! Please, you can join in anytime. Some even post the next day because Monday's are already spoken for! Happy Birthday to your sister! I love the Exodus scripture I chose. It reminds me that God can and will fight my battles for me when I am unable to. I haven't read Malachi in a long time. Your scripture makes me want to dig in there again. Your pewter dragonfly necklace sounds so pretty. I have a special feeling for dragonflies and I don't anything that represents it! Have a blessed evenin g!

This looks like a fun thing to participate in! Apple Crisp is my all time favorite dessert! Last Thanksgiving I tried a pear crisp and it was also delicious! I think our shorts weather is done.
