On my bedside table:
Wives and Daughters by Elizabeth Gaskell
Decree by Patricia King
What in the World is Going On by Dr. David Jeremiah
Teatime magazine, June Issue
On my TV:
"24" We tape this every week!

BBQ chicken, devilled eggs, salad, asparagus
On my To Do List:
I need to start cleaning the house for guests- especially the guest room and upstairs whch has gotten sort of ratty.
New Recipe I tried last week:

In the craft basket:
Nothing, I need to get something going
Looking forward to:
Amanda and Joshua's visit home next week as they return for his college graduation. This is quite a big deal as he receives his PHD. I know it will be a whirlwind visit, but I just can't wait!!
Homemaking Tip for this week:
We keep empty plastic grocery bags folded and stacked on the bottom shelf of our linen closet up stairs to use as trash can liners. I carry the new household products and toiletries up stairs in the bags then save them for further use as trash bags. It saves me many steps.

Favorite photo from last week:
I took this photo last week, but am sharing about it today! This cute dollhouse is my mom and dad's home. Just about a mile from us, I love this cute English cottage--- just right for them at this time of their lives.
Lesson learned the past few days:
When temptation comes and tries to twist your thinking, immediaely think on things above, and give your whole attention to God!

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
