Happy Homemaker Monday

Today I am posting on  HHM  with The Diary of the Stay at Home Mom.

On the weather front:::
We awakened to a gorgeous  yet  rather cool morning.. I pray all areas  south east of us  are  enjoying this gorgeous sun as they    are  so arduously working to  reclaim what the storm has taken from them... our prayers are with  them all.

On my bedside table:::

Jesus Calling, devotional

lotion,  phone

The last in the  New Heights Series , Finding Grace, by Denise Hunter...
 I highly recommend her books... all very relevant to our times and  struggles...  yet,  God is  with us through them all!

On my TV:::

Sorry to say the debate last night preempted  Poldark... bah!!   These debates are so one sided and ,  biased and corrupted to the core...  A friend has  loaned us an older  BBC series entitled, Campion, which is  very good...  a detective  series set in  the  pastoral  areas of England,  set in pre-WWII... 

Thinking and pondering::::

about our outing today...  we are  going out and about    checking on a few sales... our main objective to the purchase of a  better lawn mower...

Listening to::::

Yo Yo Ma playing  The Mission sound Track on Pandora...  so soulful!!!

Favorite Youtube Video last week:::

On the menu for this week:::

Monday - pork chops, mashed potatoes, peas
our daughter's favorite meal...wish she was here!!!

Tuesday - Baked salmon, salad

Wednesday- dinner out

Thursday-Spaghetti,   french bread, salad

Friday- not sure

On my To Do List:::

Looking forward to:::
Well, we were looking forward to taking a wee  trip,   but alas,  Matthew had other plans... the   flooding, plus, we  dont  want  our deisre to  vacation  get in the way of others  who  have much more important things to do... not the time to be thinking of ourselves...  but I am  terribly disappointed...

What I plan on doing for myself this week:::
I really need to  switch  seasonal wardrobes...  not exactly fun,  but will make my life so much easier!

Favorite photo:::

Our precious granddaughter celebrating her .... count them.... third birthday!!!I can just imagine what she'd do if she could get her hands on that cake!!!  YIKES!

Lesson learned the past few days:::

The dynamic and  extreme importance of the term entrusted....  we are  entrusted with so much  that we too often take for granted... our family, our  grandchildren's  hearts and minds,  the gospel message, our blessings,  there is  a boatload of responsibility attached to each of these  treasures!

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:::
