THE WEATHER OUTSIDE IS:
Today is cloudy with the threat of thunderstorms later today!
ON THE BREAKFAST PLATE THIS MORNING:
This week I am going off the shakes for a few days and trying my hand at eating less and naturally...I had a couple of boiled eggs, tomato juice and English muffin. I hope to up my intake of water!
RIGHT NOW I AM:
hoping for the best... we are meeting with the third contractor and my hopes are high that he will not try to snooker us like the last one who came on strong at first until we realized he was charging us 100 % over the price of the elements of our bathroom renovation. He actually had us downsizing our dream of desiring a tile shower because of costs... to use the product he was pushing which was still costing us thousands... upon viewing the product in his showroom this weekend it truly looked like contact paper on particle board...Our world of deception and lies has filtered down into every area of life it seems... I am praying today our hopes will be redeemed.
AS I LOOK OUTSIDE MY WINDOW
There appears to be a lull in the spirit of summer.. more green that color... Thanks for our vibrant yarrow and pansies that are determined to shine their radiant hues!

CURRENTLY READING:
Ecclesiastes
Ecclesiastes

ON THE TV :
Lately I have really enjoyed watching Youtube videos... There are many new videos from the 'Escape to the Country', discovering country side real estate in the UK.
Also I love Sid Roth's Christian program called It's Supernatural.. ON there I discovered a great prayer warrior and man of God named Henry Gruver..
I am so enthralled with him that I am seeking everything I can find on his life and how God is using him to do His work!

WHAT I AM CREATING AT THE MOMENT
it seems we continue to fine tune the bathroom renovation. I have a large file of plans and changes...again I am so hopeful we can be more definitive after today!
FROM THE CAMERA:
One of my very favorite things to do is to watch birds from my perch by the sunroom window... That is my reading and card ministry spot during the afternoon!
PRAYER, INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE OR DEVOTIONAL:
My hope is to find integrity today in all whom I meet!
Those breakfast shakes get old fast, don't they? I looked at my big jar of the protein stuff this morning...and just couldn't do it. Had plain Eggo waffles topped with lemon curd instead. Clearly, I'm still in vacation mode. Sorry about your remodel troubles. Hope you have a wonderful week ahead!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear that you got snookered, Shotzy, and got left holding the bag. Did you report that guy to the better business bureau? That's terrible! Hope this trip around goes better and you get the work done that you want the way you want it. Blessings for the week ahead! <3
ReplyDeleteYou've had a busy week with all those workmen trying to rip you off. Our experience - try and find someone very local in your own community who values the community and friendship as you do. Yes, Escape to the country we watch too especially when it includes places we know close by - Lancashire.

Lovely picture! have a great week
