The thing I’ve picked to celebrate today is my furnace! Today is Thursday, December 22, 2022. The temperature is -7!
Duane is very funny! Sometimes when we’re eating he will tell me the steps he takes in preparing a meal! I have no doubt he remembers who he is talking to; he just seems to forget, I am so not interested! As my eyes start to glaze over, I give him this ‘look’ and then we both laugh! I have often, often, told people he loves to cook and I hate to… And then, I always add:…..
TODAY IS DECEMBER 22, 2022 and my bathtub can’t be used yet. It is now three days until Christmas and no days without a bath. Thank God! I am also reflecting on the fact of growing up with six in the family and one bathroom, one tub, and no shower… How did we ever do it?! Amazingly we did it and I don’t remember any tragedies of my parents, my three brothers, and me sharing this one bathtub. Selah……
America is great! (I’ve always loved the melting pot story!) Duane just came home with cornhusks to make his Christmas tamales! Guess where he found them?! At the Dragon Star Asian Market!
Guess what I did this morning?! A habit… I’ve gotten into the habit of taking the trash out early in the morning before Duane gets up… Now I know it’s trash day today and as I walked outside I specifically noted how Duane had put the trash barrel and recycling barrel at the end of our driveway… I marveled at the glorious snow, the trees laden with it, the sounds of the crunch, crunch, crunch under my feet! I love…..
You know, I never realized squirrels eat pizza! I think it is so darling to see them with it. And, I find it even more interesting they will fight for it! I remember the first time I saw Herbie eating pizza! It was summertime and he was sitting on my retaining wall. I was shocked and amazed! I laughed so loud at his cuteness the boy across the street heard me. It was great! I’d like to refer you back…..
A CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR YOU TODAY: an extra Advice For the Wife this month! LADIES; don’t get frustrated with your husbands! Find a solution… Going to Target every two weeks with Duane is something I really enjoy… I do have a lot of fun in the small things! Selah. I have a very organized list that we add to ahead of time; all printed out, orderly, and complete. Selah again. The pattern often has been that when I’m…..
Thinking of a special gift? It’s not too late to order my books: The Free Incarcerated Man and Joy Stories Volume One! Both are replete with fully documented Scriptures! (That’s the best part!)
One of the things I deeply and always appreciate for my husband is when I need something, I get it. For example: I crochet often because I’m alone much more now that my children are adults. I crochet beautiful things while listening to sermons online. Yes! I can do both. This is truly one of my greatest joys for myself, my time. Please keep in mind that every child of God who listens to the Word of God makes herself…..
LONG AGO I willingly gave my life to God, asking Him to forgive me and be my Lord, be my Savior. I chose. I received. He is now forever my Father in Heaven, my Lord, my Savior, my Comforter, my Advocate. Because of this He has given me uncountable blessings and promises. One of the utmost things I’ve had on mind these past few months is: Deuteronomy 31:8 The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never…..
