Welcome to FFF! Hosted by Susanne!
Time seems to fly from one week to the next! We live in a high pollen area and I have been highly affected... Even though I get allergy shots every week and have for years.. the pollen still wears me down. I didn't make it to church or to Bible Study this week. I do hope to go to Prayer meeting tonight!

I am so very thankful for the soaking rain we have gotten over the last couple of days... even though our basement did get a bit of water in the wash room, the pollen is languishing in the ground now. We will have more rain in a few days.. Perhaps it will do away with the last bit still to emanate from our lovely trees!

Last week I was evaluated on how much I had improved in therapy, and I was able to start my second round of four weeks.. I have promised to get more therapy in here at home.. and since we have no trips or other encumbrances, I am well on my way to following up on my promise. I am doing my round of exercises every other day which is good.. Thank you, Lord for leading me in this endeavor!!!

I have plans to do a bit more reading than I have been able to do of late. I was able to read a lovely novel over last weekend.. mainly while we were driving, and I enjoyed it so much more than I had for some time. I have a couple of books on my mantel I am anxious to read. so I pray that my eyes will still be interested!!!
I, also, had gotten several days behind in my Bible reading, ... the assignment is a chapter a day from 4 different books from both Old and New Testament. not so much, but a lot if I am really trying to really take it to heart! I was able to make up 6 days in 2 days this week, and now I only am 3 days behind! I hope to make up those this afternoon!!
I do not like being behind!!!

Lynn just came down to commend me on the deliciousness that is wafting up the stairs. And indeed, the house is rich in savory goodness!! Because of my efforts in therapy, I am feeling much more myself and have been cooking again. Today, I am braising a beef stew which is really making us both feel exceptionally joyful!! Thank you, Lord for your faithfulness in every area in our lives!!!
Well, it has been a rather quiet week for us, as I just haven't felt like being out and about, but being house bound has been a lovely thing! I am always so pleased when Hubs is pleased with me!!!

These are all wonderful blessings: a home to cook good food in; getting caught up on your Bible reading; reading for pleasure; working out; Rain to bring more flowers and hubby's compliments. Have a wonderfully relaxing weekend. It's supposed to rain here all day tomorrow in eastern NY so I plan on cleaning and reading. OH.....my ENT last year told me allergy shots only work for about 3-34 years and then you should get retested and if you choose allergy shots, they'll match you up with your latest testing cause your allergies tend to change (if seasonal) every 5-7 years. I never knew that. I chose NOT to get allergy shots for my birch tree allergy and this year the symptoms are not too bad....i take one rx med at bedtime from end of March through end of June.
ReplyDeleteI also have a regular daytime allergy pill that so far i haven't needed yet.
Will pray your allergies let up!
Glad you are feeling better! Beef stew sounds amazing. I love reading. The pollen is bothering me more this year, too--not sure why. We had some rain today that I hope washed the air out a bit.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're feeling better. Thankfully pollen has never really affected me. Have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteGood news that you are feeling better, and way to go on the exercises.
ReplyDeleteI would love a more home-bound week with lots of reading and time puttering in the garden.
I hope the pollen just washes all away.
Have a good weekend.
We were in Lancaster, PA
DeletePS: Gotta ask, what Amish community did you visit?
ReplyDeleteYour blog is looking mighty cute and springy. Glad that the rain gave your allergies to pollen some relief. Good job on working on your therapy. And now you have me craving beef stew.
