Friday Fave Five

Hosted by Suzanne.

This has been somewhat a quiet and relaxing week.  On Sunday, we got the wonderful news that our daughter and grands will be flying down to  join  the week we go to the coast. That will make for such a fun vacation.Than you Lord for working that out for our family!   

For this week, we only had one appointment written on the weekly calendar. I was due to get my blood work done . When I was done last time, I had recently had shots in my hips because of bursitis,  well that shots threw my blood work into a whirlwind. After losing 50 pounds I wasn’t happy with the crazy numbers. So this time my blood sugar is 5.6 and my cholesterol is way down, too. I am smiling big time now with the true values! Thank you, Lord! 

Tuesday-Thursday has been pretty much the same.   Just planning Weight  Watcher meals that will be nourishing for us both, but also aid me in losing sone weight, as well!  I made a large batch of roasted root vegetables.,   Including potatoes, beets, carrots, as well as, asparagus , onion, and a mass of fresh spices.  It was enough for three days, and was so tasty!  I could eat that every day of the week!  Lord, thank you for the diversity in flavors, texture, colors.  That was such a great meal! 

Today, Friday, I will go to my Weight Watchers Meeting!  I hope to have lost a pound or two!I need to not forget this weekend to create some birthday cards using the Jacqui Lawson Cards  which I use to send cards to you our friends at church. I really enjoy sending these e- cards because they bring a lot of joy to my friends.  They are very well worth the small price we spend each year to bring a touch of joy to others. I figure the postage and cards would cost more than the membership where I can send many many cards to more people. I send one to each member of our large Sunday school class plus many other folks in our church. It is a lovely way to show you care and make new friends along the way!

Well, it was a joyful, if a relatively quiet week!  I am blessed in so many ways!  Thank you, Lord, for my dear husband and partner as we negotiate each day with you blessing!
