Thankful

Today I am thankful that God cares for us. He speaks to us directly! He heals us inside and out. He restores what we have lost,given away or been robbed of! He teaches us and leads us. He is a loving and good Father! Thank You Abba!

November 5

5 is the number of GRACE! I am thankful for the grace of God ! The grace that offered salvation to a prideful, sin sick ,southern girl like me. I didn't meet Jesus until I was 28 and I have never been the same ! 

I also thank God that today my daddy passed the eye test to get to keep his driving privileges. I am very grateful, and relieved for us all. 

I am thankful that our son could take the time to go to the doctor with his grand dad today. I hope they make good memories today. 

November 2 thanks-living

Today I am giving heartfelt thanks to God that Mr Wonderful made his trip safely . Having driven it twice last week I have a new empathy for him on travel days!

November 1 , thankful

Today I am thankful for having a day with my Mr Wonderful and Ms Busy. We got to have breakfast with the whole family and then had a peaceful afternoon at home. 

Throat drops (diy style)

I made my first batch of diy throat drops. I used honey,sugar,butter,water and some on-guard essential oil. 

They taste good! But...they are not pretty! 

I forgot that I am bad at taffy. I have no heat tolerance in hy hands. So the vague directions of "when it's cool enough to handle " really don't apply to me. 

I do want to make a peppermint kind and a lemon kind too but I have a feeling that the next batch will be suckers or I will order some type of candy mold.

The flat is one of the first ones that I poured out like a lollipop. The 2nd one after trying to taffy pull and cut.

Pretty cool! I feel so accomplished! Lol

Day book a day late! October 5th

Out side my window- blue sky,fluffy clouds and the perfect fall day. About 70•

I am thinking- about how thankful I am that my husband didn't get seriously injured when he fell off a truck at work yesterday. He's 5 states away y'all!

I am thankful- for grace. That God loves us enough to change us and grow us!

In the kitchen- I made egg muffins and apple muffins this morning in the toaster oven.

I am wearing- denim capris, teal and black blouse. My sketch-air shoes.

I am creating- 

A wreath for me now that my daughter has hers!

I am going- no where today if I can help it.

I am wondering- how back the sink is going to be to fix! A mouse chewed our dishwasher line and there is damage in the sink cabinet. :-(

I am reading- freezer tips and recipes. Hubby wants an upright freezer instead of the fridge in the garage.

I am hoping- my cycle is done before hubby gets home. (Just being honest) 💃

Around the house- every thug is moving up. Ms. Busy can reach higher now! Lol

One of my favorite things-

Clouds! 

Favorite quote- "just because I can't do it today, doesn't mean I can't do it someday " saw it on a work out meme. 

A peek into my day-

Y'all have a great week! Please go read some of the other day books. We all love comments! See the links here http://thesimplewoman.blogspot.com

 

October is here!

This is the princes last day as a teenager! Wow! I had a hard time with 20 , but not 40...go figure! He is not having a hard time. His girl has something special planned. We celebrated last weekend. I do have one more little thing for in the morning. :-)

I brought a pillow down to pad my lap for some crafting . I had to put everything down to tend the baby and this is what I came back to-

Sweet girl . 

Then a bit later Abby went to her bed and Nolly took over my pillow. He is such a boy! I had to crop the pic or y'all would have seen why we call him "Nolly no pants! " (his real name is Noel , BTW)

Oh these dogs! :-) maddening, but too cute.
