Our hostess is found here~
The weather:
This has been a wait and see kind of several days as we have waiting to see what Florence might be bringing us...We have been under a flash flood warning, but so far the area is just wet with some homes getting a bit of water in their basements.. We had a trickle. But my main concern has been please don't be so bad that I can't get to the hair dresser to get my hair washed... I can't bend my face forward, nor can I run water straight to my ear, nor can I get my nose wet.. so it has been a week since my hair has been washed... If everything holds its own I can this afternoon!!! No flooding, please!
Things that make me happy
::
Books I'm reading:
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
I loaned my 2 dollar hard cover copy that bought about 10 years ago at a library sale to a friend and never got it back... I just got my new paper back for $17.00 at B&N.. I think I've learned never loan a copy of your favorite book to anyone!
Plus some Bible Studies.. on James, Philippians, and Isaiah.
On the blog last week:
I got really behind in blogging last week during my time out of town getting my nose addressed... I got back in time to feel like doing some blogging on Friday..Midsummer Friday Fave Fives and on Saturday..Pink Saturday
Shows and Movies:
Hubs and I just finished The Paradise.. and we both really enjoyed it. Over the weekend we started watching Mad Men... Our daughter had told us about it when it was on regular tv and she really got caught up in Mid century Modern style because of it,, I can see why...
I just keep asking Hubs were business men really such male chauvinists in the 60's and then I remember the early seventies entered in the Feminist movement.. interesting... BTW, I am not a feminist at all.. I love to be cherished and taken care of by my sweetheart!!!
Also, jokingly my daughter told me even though he is a total cad...
we still tend to root for him... actually he is very
puzzling and hurting fellow.
Another aside: it's a wonder we baby boomers aren't all dead from second hand smoke!!!
Menu Plan:
Monday: Taco salad

In the craft basket:
I am still creating Tasha Tudor Sparrow Nest stationary for my wee ones to share with them at our next visit.. I hope they will take this precious routine seriously.. to build love, respect, and forgiveness between young siblings.
Looking forward to this week:
I will be over the moon to have the bolster pad that is sewn on my new skin graft removed.. it pulls, it itches, when I sneeze or yawn it hurts... 2 more days!!
What with my surgeries then the hurricane... I am really just ready to live and look forward to autumn.. Every time I see a gorgeous photo on Facebook I share it on my page...I love fall of the year..today I shared these on my page.
This one looks so peaceful.. Oh to sit there and read or sit in the room by the window and listen to soft music and dream!!!
And this one.. I never imagined how much I would adore a brown autumn!
Prayer Requests:
The President and his family, and the administration
Pray that all the scandals and investigations will finally be resolved and justice meted out.
For the God's best person be quickly voted into the Supreme Court position
Pray that the scales that delude so many will fall off the many and that they will find peace, truth, and salvation
Pray against division and the hatred that runs rampant
Pray for the sick that they might be healed
Pray for the the Carolinians in their loss and devastation... Help them to be thankful for what they do have..their lives... for those who lost loved ones, we pray for the Lord to comfort and supply all their needs
We pray for compassion and mercy to reign among God's people to serve, help, and provide for those who need so much,, showing the love of Christ to the world
Pray for the lost who are bewildered and strained to the max... they are hopeless in need of a loving savior!
Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:
Hope you get to get your hair washed today and all goes well with the rest of your recovery. I watched Mad Men and really enjoyed it not too long ago. Your daughter is right about his character. I enjoyed watching that show as much for the complicated and interesting characters as for seeing the fashions from that time. Hope you have a great week!
