Blessings

Such a beautiful, autumn day. Lovin' it. I cleaned 4 houses this week. I prayed for more work and God gave me more. Praise Him. Had fun buying groceries for a change. Went to 3 different stores, buying what was on sale, lots of buy one get one free. Now having to put it all away.

Got to get busy and cook some yummy food for the weekend. I've got several new recipes I want to try. Asian chicken salad wraps, Apricot-almond bars, Caramelized onion dip with fresh raw veges, Penne frittata with basil and ricotta and some kind of yummy muffins.

Going to play my guitar at Sabbath School tomorrow. Haven't done that in a while.

Matthew, my youngest son, started a full time job Tuesday. He has been working pretty regular but this is a 40 hr, get up at 5:30, punch the time clock kind of job.

Where did September go?

Wow, this month flew by. Last weekend I think was the highlight of the month. All my sons, their families, my sister Lorine and her husband and daughter all went camping with Lewis and me to our favorite camping place, Tellico River. Such a great time even with all the rain Saturday night and Sunday morning while packing. My grandsons had so much fun playing with rocks and sticks and in the water. Saturday night we sat around telling stories. We shared good food, good company and the beauty of God's creation.

Today, my mom is coming for a visit from South Georgia. Her first drive up here alone in a long time. It's been 2 and a half months since my Dad died. We are going to have a blessed visit. Tomorrow is Lewis' birthday and all my sons and their families will be together again for a wonderful, fun and food filled day of celebration of life.
