 At the Patterson craft show, I didn't sell a lot ... but I did have an editor from The Blackshear Times interview me ... and others around the room. I was included in the article in this week's edition. It starts on front page by K.T. McKee and is continued on page 11 (that's where my info is). Be sure to read it! BTW, she is a good writer!

My Birthday Cake .... hummm pie

 


My birthday cake. Long time ago and far far away, I used to make a cherry cheesecake for my birthday every year for many years. Then, I got out of it for various reasons. Eating less sugar, gluten free ....
But, this year I wanted to have one with a crust I could eat.
So, I made a crust with pecan flour & GF graham crackers. While I was at it I figured I should go for less sugar, so I did that too. Licking the beaters was sweet enough, so I am looking forward to having some with a cup of coffee this afternoon!

Answered Thought

 I was expecting an item in the mail. I had ordered it a couple weeks ago and was surprised it was taking so long to get to me. It was due in one more week and a couple days. I had ordered it for now,  though,  and was disappointed. I started to ask God to go ahead and send it to me. But I thought and told him that he had too many important things in the world to take care of to worry about that one little item that I wanted sooner than expected. And I went on about my way. When the mail came there was this package in it and I didn't know what in the world it was. And lo and behold who was the item I wanted just in time for when I needed it. And I hadn't even prayed about it but He knew a desire my heart.

 I could not let this day pass without saying something about my & Steve’s special day. We do NOT take the passing of years for granted. We know who has kept us together and it has been our God. 

When we got married, we knew nothing of what a marriage was supposed to be like. I think our pastor talked to us but we don’t remember what was said. All we knew was that we loved each other and wanted to be together for the rest of our lives.

With 20+ moves behind us & about 5 years separation total, due to a military life style we made it through by the grace of God and give Him all the glory for leading us along the way, placing the right people in our paths to encourage us through life and helping us know what a good marriage can be like.

This morning I thought, as we each put our trust in God for not only our eternity, but our day to day lives, when problems happen we not only want the best for each other, but desire to fully follow through with the covenant we made with God and each other in front of witnesses that day so long ago. I imagine it as two anchors intertwined, each grounded in our trust in our God and our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

We want to thank all the couples who celebrated their 50 years ahead of us and gave us hope that we could do it too … and maybe we would live long enough to see it happen. We also know all the times we could have been called home by sickness or accidents and are grateful for the years God has blessed us with.

Here’s to the next 50 years!

At my brother's memorial, as I sat there, sad and feeling hurt because he was taken from us so early, I remember all of a sudden, feeling such a peace and thinking how God was telling me, to not feel bad, but feel happy that we got to share those years that he had on earth, together. We got to share that time!

You see, because we believe a person has a set time to die already planned by God and no matter how it happens it will happen at that appointed time, whether in a dangerous situation, an illness or resting in your living room. And as a Christian, to be absent from the body is to be present with The Lord! So. The above makes sense.

I still grieve, still feel sad and it still hurts, but I can have peace knowing we will be together again one day. 



We didn't realize that at Mom's funeral in Nov 2020, that our circle would be broken so soon.

Too Much Online Time

Friday night we watched a play online about too much internet in our lives and it controlling us. This morning we woke up to Focus on the Family talking about too much internet in our lives and it controlling us. Hummmmm. 

So I stayed off FB for 7 hours. Not saying I am going to stay away, but I sure got a lot accomplished this morning. And I didn't think I was online too much. Something definitely to think seriously about. So, let's see how long I can go this time. I made it 22 hours the second time. Of course, I slept 8 of them. :)

Doing this, is making me realize that I am online more than I thought. Even though, I limit how much time I am on the internet. I have taken my name off a lot of places I used to get email from. I don't do Twitter. I don’t want to have a program where I just say something on the spur of the moment and it be out there for everyone to see ... and then realize I made a goof up in what I said.  No, Thank you! I would rather send someone a message or email so I have time to think what to write and they have time to think how to answer my message. And, I sure don't want to do an on-the-spot online movie! I don't even know if I want to go to another social media, if FB closes. I would miss seeing prayer requests and updates on people's lives, but sometimes, there is just too much drama in people's posts. Then, of course all the social or political things or ads are annoying.

Anyway, I have enjoyed my hours off line and hope to do even more down time.

Now, I guess I need to get offline and do something in my house! 😏
