I hope this week will be like today..  we woke up to a shower but has just been overcast all morning..We do not need any gully washers!

On my mind
I woke up this morning just so pleased that  we  really liked the church e visited yesterday.  The pastor called this morning and we had a lovely chat.  He is starting a study of Hosea next week,  so we will definitely be back!  Ive never studied Hosea before!

On the breakfast plate

Coffee and yogurt

On my reading pile
I am still reading the Debbie Macomber book, White Lace and Promises.  I am pretty sure Ive read it before... but it is good and  I am reading it leisurely to make it last!

On my tv
!

Our area is  running Downton Abbey again 9on Saturday nights which I enjoyed.. otherwise I have gotten into the habit of watching the very vintage What's My Line  around bedtime.. I catch a couple   episodes and   turn in.. It  makes me happy. I remember  Sunday nights as a child and teen wanting to watch it more  but it  came on at 10pm and as a teen I had to be in bed.  But it was comforting to go to sleep with it playing in the den  which was near my room!

Interesting youtube vlog I saw this week
Time to   plan  carefully.. but please do not hoard.
also,

Enjoy!
On the menu this week

Monday -Sausage, egg,  and veggie   bake which shredded cheese

Tuesday -  left over  Garlic chicken    with rice  from  the restaurant 

Wednesday -  sandwiches and salad

Thursday-  dinner out

From the camera:
I'm sharing   the dining room because  I plan  to  cha age it up today!


Looking around the house
Downstairs looking  good,  but upstairs is another  thing..  need to do a bit including a bit more  purging!

On my to-do list
  • Changing the sheets on the beds
  •  pack away summer clothing
  • purge clothing that is too large  and accessories that   I  never use
  • redo the dining room decor
  • grocery shop 
  • Eye laser treatment  to correct  some glaucoma (YIKES)  (I had some of this  at the time I had my cataract surgery and it  hurt like  hi jinx)
  • next day I have my mammogram..  ok  great week ahead!
  • Intercessors for America
  • Intermittent fasting  all week.. and   trying live much more intentionally
  • Bible Study ..  book of Ephesians   in the NT  and  Hosea in the O
Decluttering
  • clothing   that is too large  for me now..   several slacks, shirts,  a couple of blouses,   a couple of courses, I never use,   a couple of sweaters and  some shoes.
  • To relax this week 
  • reading,  Bible Study,   vlogs,   quiet music like the YouTube  above
Prayer and devotional
Crisis in Afghanistan and the Middle East, 
influx of illegals into our nation, crisis in Haiti
everywhere that persecution is taking place...
Pray for the upcoming  elections...  Pray for godly  leaders who   really
 care about their constituents and  govern  fairly and  according to our 
Constitution!  
Our government leaders to seek God, and for the fear of the Lord to
 spread among all people.
For healing of the sick,
 salvation of the lost,
 deliverance for the hurting,
the supply, food, and building shortage problem: may it not  become
 a huge crisis  
Churches to arise and pastors to  preach    according to our times and
 this days.. very vital!
protect our children from the ungodly teachings and protect them
 from ungodly people who wish them harm for their own purposes. 

Especially for  people to turn or  return to God.   Only He can
 save..  There is no other way to God except through the shed blood 
of His son! I cannot imagine negotiating these days  without knowing
 that  God has my back.  Otherwise, I would be a basket case. He is in 
control ;even  the  terrible things He is allowing for his own purposes
 and it may be for the judgement of America. A nation cannot kill 63
 million babies and think God doesn't notice and care.  His judgement
  may be  right around the corner,  but His people  will go through it 
 in the palm of His hand. Please  turn to God through Jesus Christ.

Farewell

 After  17 years of   blogging  I am  pretty sad to  just fade  out  with  hardly  anyone showing any   farewell,  concern  about my  surger...
