I don’t know about you, but for me, this week has flown by. Each day
has just tumbled into the next and I actually got so mixed up yesterday I was even confused enough to call my best friend ‘s husband to inquire about how her surgery went. How embarrassed was I when he assured me that the surgery was tomorrow! Or today actually! Well in my lame defense, the surgery had been changed from Thursday toFriday, but I actually was thinking yesterday was Friday! Oh, Swell, now I not only have enough brain fog from my booster shot to not only say the wrong word in conversation ,but also get my days mixed up!
- Alas, I am here to share my blessings, and there are many! For one, because of my previous error, I now have an extra day to decide what food to fix to take to Gerri and Dave! She actually wanted me to wait til tomorrow and my choices are baked spaghetti, or Chinese chicken stir fry. I think she really prefers the Chinese so I do have all the ingredients.. and it is one of my best dishes to make.. so stir fry it will be! I just truly so thankful We have such wonderful friends in Gerri and Dave and am blessed to be able to do this small thing to make their day easier and tasty, too!!
- I am sort of surprised in the change I made in my blog this last week.. I made a decision to make some changes in the blog, and as I started in to recreate it, I suddenly found that I had removed most everything to make way for the new. I am afraid I was galvanized by a couple of other blogs whose work is so inspiring but they are using a format other than blogger and I am afraid that what I might wish to do here is impossible. I am such a old dog it is very difficult to teach me new tricks .. I actually have a word press blog that I never use because it is not user friendly for me! But I wish to be much more intentional about what I do and how I add new material.. so I pray all will bear with me in the interim.. What is the blessing? The inspiration that I have gleaned this week is growing me in my inner soul, and I want to be able to share how the Lord is working within me. I do not wish to be bogged down making blogger work so I may be trying to get word press up and going again... so I may not be into the things I heretofore have been doing. I don't know, it is a season of flux for me.. but in the end I know I will spring anew and I hope to be able to be a blessing here in blogland.
- Plans are well into the making for our Christmas visit with the kids, but since we do not travel from here to Boston in 1 day we have to choose a stop along the way about half way which puts us in Pa. My goodness we have tried B&B’s and hotels all up and down the 81 corridor! This year we will be making reservations hopefully today to stay in Hershey as our layover. We love this gorgeous B&B..The Inn at Westwynd Farm!
Fabulous breakfasts in aMagnificent setting!
- I am pretty excited, even as we were planning our Christmas trip, our discussion deviated to how we and our kids accommodate over night guests. The kids have an issue at this time with a home remodel that necessarily prohibits the use of their regular guest quarters so we are deep in helping to plan our sleeping arrangement… . This discussion spilled over into our accommodations here for the girls. They usually sleep in Amanda’s old room, but we only have a twin bed so someone then sleeps on an air mattress. So Amanda suggested a wonderful idea which would give us a much better use for Amanda’s room since it is so seldom used. It would be to change the room to a den with our second tv and buy a sofa bed. I am over the moon about this, because it is something I have wanted to do for some time, but today Lynn was very agreeable about it! Yaya!
- I am thrilled that things are moving right along here with our library room. I am feeling that by the time the shutter men arrive next week to take their measures, things will be pretty much all finished! Now that would be a huge blessing!
I get in those moods sometimes to change the appearance of my blog. I'm about there now. It is fun and refreshing to do something like that. In fact, my blog is still "under construction" as far as content. The B&B you've chosen looks lovely. I really enjoy those types of accommodations. The shower I attended in Florida was for my grand daughter-in-law. Others have commented that it was my daughter, so I don't think I expressed myself very well. LOL
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful list of blessings.
ReplyDelete(btw, when I clicked on your name on Susanne's blinky thing it brought me to the b and b website! I had to click on your name in my comment section and then click on your blog link). It sounds like things are moving right along with your home repairs and re-decorating. Someday, when youngest daugher gets her own apt I hope to turn her room in to a guest room. Oldest daughter's room is now half office for dave (he works 2 days from home) and half fitness room/meditation/prayer room.
Happy Weekend!
