Looking forward to:::
I have found out that the upcoming family reunion is going to be even better than I originally thought.. I seems just about all of the aunts and cousins will be there this time... I wish my mom was here to go... she always loved it so much!
Looking around the house:::
the downstairs looks great! The upstairs is the bug a boo!!! One bedroom finished, the guest room to go.. but my clothing is the problem.. much to sort and make some decisions about... and then organize the closet... my most detestable job but it must be done!

From the camera:::
I ran across this photo of my parents the day our dear friend, Mo, visited from Arizona. Mo is still a great face book friend, we had a great times years ago when she lived near my parents, in Galax.
What I'm wearing today:::
Blue shorts and the coolest top I could find!!! Poor Lynn is mowing today! I hold my breath when he mows in this weather.
One of my simple pleasures:::
I never got to do this yet...the pollen on the porch was such that we couldn't get it washed off until later,, then the heat and continuing pollen in the air has kept me inside... in-
stead of sitting out on the porch to read or eat breakfast, even..
I cannot believe I haven't set out on the porch this whole season yet... Maybe I can next week... But my allergies have been horrid.. and my hacky cough is getting to me big time!!!

Bible verse, Devotional, prayers:::
A wonderful devotional from Alistair Begg
Jesus is my anchor!
A wonderful devotional from Alistair Begg
...If indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.1 Peter 2:3
"If." Then this is not a matter to be taken for granted concerning every one of the human race. "If"--then there is a possibility and a probability that some may not have tasted that the Lord is gracious. "If"--then this is not a general but a special mercy; and it is necessary to ask whether we know the grace of God by inward experience. There is no spiritual favor that may not be a matter for heart-searching.
But while this should be a matter of earnest and prayerful inquiry, no one ought to be content while there is any such thing as an "if" about his having tasted that the Lord is good. A jealous and holy distrust of self may give rise to the question even in the believer's heart, but the continuance of such a doubt would be an evil indeed. We must not rest without a desperate struggle to clasp the Savior in the arms of faith and say, "I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that he is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me."1
Do not rest, believer, until you have a full assurance of your interest in Jesus. Let nothing satisfy you until, by the infallible witness of the Holy Spirit bearing witness with your spirit, you are identified as a child of God. Do not trifle with this. Do not be satisfied with "perhaps" or "if" or "maybe." Build on eternal truths; really build upon them. Let your anchor be cast into that which is within the veil, and see to it that your soul is linked to the anchor by a cable that will not break. Get beyond these dreary "ifs"; stay no longer in the wilderness of doubts and fears; cross the Jordan of distrust, and enter the promised land of peace, where the land ceases not to flow with milk and honey.
1) 2 Timothy 1:12
Jesus is my anchor!
