♥♥ As I look outside my window ♥♥
It is a beautiful day. We were out to go to therapy and I did wrap up a bit... but the sun is shining and folks are taking advantage of the cool temps to do some mowing. Lynn will be out there soon, I guess!
♥♥ Right now I am ♥♥
I just got back from physical therapy. I still love my therapist! He measured my improvement today.... never too fun!!! But I am doing better and I signed for another 4 weeks!!
♥♥ Thinking and pondering ♥♥
We had the most fabulous trip to Lancaster, PA over the weekend. So wonderful to share the time with our daughter and family! We saw Moses at Sight and Sound. First time for the girls! They were entranced!!! We stayed at the most fabulous hotel, Amish View inn. The girls got to show me their swimming improvement!! I am so glad their parents are bringing them up to swim. ice skate and ski.... all things I never learned to do!!
♥♥How am I feeling ♥♥
I am still sort of sleepy today. Didn't sleep well neither away or here last night; I think last night I was dreading the therapy check up today. I could take a nap here after while!!!

Lynn took us out to a newer restaurant for breakfast .. I got a Belgium waffle with a fruited compote to pour over it! yummy!!! Then we had to stop at the grocer for stuff for the week!!!

Renew Your Covenant APRIL 24, 2023

Because of all this we make a firm covenant.
Nehemiah 9:38
There are many occasions in our experience when we may very rightly, and with benefit, renew our covenant with God. After recovery from sickness when, like Hezekiah, we have had a new lease of years added to our life, we may do so appropriately. After any deliverance from trouble, when our joys spring forth anew, let us again visit the foot of the cross and renew our consecration. Especially let us do this after any sin that has grieved the Holy Spirit or brought dishonor upon the cause of God; let us then look to that blood that can make us whiter than snow and again offer ourselves to the Lord.
We should not only let our troubles confirm our dedication to God, but our prosperity should do the same. If we ever meet with occasions that deserve to be called “crowning mercies,” then surely, if He has crowned us, we ought also to crown our God; let us bring out again all the jewels of the divine regalia that have been stored in the jewel-closet of our heart, and let our God sit upon the throne of our love, arrayed in royal apparel. If we could learn to profit by our prosperity, we would not need to face so much adversity. If we would gather from a kiss all the good it might confer upon us, we would not have to bear the imprint of punishment so often.
Have we recently received some blessing that we hadn’t expected? Has the Lord opened our way? Can we sing of mercies multiplied? Then this is the day to put our hand upon the horns of the altar and say, “Bind me here, my God; bind me here with cords, even forever.” Just as we need the fulfillment of new promises from God, let us offer renewed prayers that our old vows may not be dishonored. This morning let us make with Him a firm covenant because of the sacrifice of Jesus that we have been considering with gratitude for the last mont

Tuesday 4 Music, Music, Music
Sunday, April 16, 2023
Music, Music, Music
How are you doing? It's great to have you back here at Toni Taddeo's Tuesday4.
Music is something most people truly enjoy but some find it annoying at times. Some listen at home, some in cars, and music is played in restaurants, shops, you name it, music provides a background for many activities.
1.What kind of music appeals to you? What kind can you do without? My husband and I really enjoy the music of our times.... the 60's. 70;'s and 80's. Anything after that is foreign to us! MY 5 hour playlist for the car is just so much fun. and we are amazed just how much our memory is enabled to sing along through the whole song!!! I have NO use for Country music!2.Do you consider music an important part of life? Absolutely!Why or why not?
It is an integral part of a person's history!
3 What's on the radio as you drive or what is on at home and do you find music in restaurants and shops soothing or off putting? We always enjoy music played in public places, no matter what the genre.. even country and bluegrass.. But I even love elevator music and really love classical music. When it comes to jazz, I prefer soft jazz!!
4. Would you tell us some of your favorite songs and singers please?Dennis Yost and the Classics 4, like Sunny, Stormy, Elvis, Kentucky Rain and Ricky Nelson I've Got a Feelin', Box Tops, The Letter, Moody Blues- Everything,Chicago-Everything, Sting, When We Dance, Motown, Everything, I can go on...Jackson Browne, Doobie Brothers, Johnny Rivers, Lovin' spoonful, Neil Diamond, Eagles, Carpenters, Seals, and Croft, Crosby, Stills, and Nash, and Young and more!

I just got back from physical therapy. I love my therapist, but it surely is not easy: I am drained!!!
♥♥ Thinking and pondering ♥♥
I am so excited about our little trip to Lancaster this weekend. We will be meeting our family there to enjoy all the sights and sounds! Just being with them makes life worthwhile! It is what therapy is all about. being strong enough to endure and enjoy!
♥♥How am I feeling ♥♥
Well, my quads were so sore I could barely walk to therapy class from the car, so he told me he'd leave the quads and work the glutes! Ahhh! Im dying now!!!

Saturday 9. Danny’s Song
Welcome to Saturday: 9.
As someone who never gave birth, but adopted, I can only say as a grandma it was lovely knowing in advance!
My parents did crafting with wood and enjoyed being in local local art guild most of their last 25 years. So I have crafting in my blood. I experimented with all kinds of them, sewing, knitting, crochet, hook latch, embroidery, cross stitch, but my problem was sticking with anything. So I basically gave up. But now as I have stated several times I am into multimedia art. I started with oil painting, love it, now I am into sketching combined with colored pencils and water colors. I want to really incorporate that all in nature journalling.

Welcome to FFF! Hosted by Susanne!
By midday they could have nearly walked across as the inlet changes so much with the tides. But they actually stay the whole day when they make the trek to set up their fishing rods for a good day’s catch!

What's an eight letter word that tells us something about your life currently?Beachbum... We just returned ftom a lovely beach trip. and not that I laid out in the sun for 7 days, but I loved sitting on our deck painting the surrounds, reading and just enjoying the things I love with no interruptions! The sounds , also, were so magical!
2. Do you have a junk drawer? Actually, no.; I got rid of it and vowed to never get one again! Is it full? Do you know what's in it? What's in it?
3. When does time pass quickly for you? When I am having fun When does it pass slowly? Never, it always seems to be flying by actually!!
4. These eight vegetables are in season during spring-asparagus, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, celery, collard greens, garlic, herbs. What's your favorite? All of them are on my favorite list!!!!Any on the list you refuse to eat? Last one on the list you ate? I suppose it would be garlic and herbs, I made a wonderful stir fry chicken dish last night but I have had the other in some form this week!!!
5. What's the oldest thing you own? Tell us about it.
The first thing I thought of was the walnut gate leg drop leaf dining table my grandfather made back in the 1920's.
6. Insert your own random thought here. I am counting the days until we meet up with our children and grands in Lancaster, Pa to see the Sight and Sound production, Moses. I am so anxious for the girls to get to see it! And the area will be be so much fun to explore!!If you haven't been there for a play. ... it is a must see!!!!!

working on this post and hoping to get it done fairly quickly! It has been a busy last few days!
♥♥ Thinking and pondering ♥♥
We drove to a town in the SW of the state to see a dermatologist associated with our’s here, so we could get a quicker appt. Lynn had a sun spot on his leg, and has been concerned about it for a few months. We finally had it burned off today. The dr. was assured it was basal cell. We were all relieved.
♥♥How am I feeling ♥♥
I am pretty excited … I have recently found that I am deficient in B1 which is causing me to have a set of related issues that should be alleviated upon building up my B1 in my body. I found some at the store today and have started taking it. I look forward to getting rid of some pesky issues I’ve lived with for some time!
♥♥ On the breakfast plate
I had my usual fruited yogurt topped now with chopped walnuts which are very healthful! And I love them!
♥♥ On the dinner plate ♥♥
I finished off the egg salad I made over the weekend. We had a lovely salad with chicken salad today for lunch!
