The fire is lit and I have changed into my lounge wear ready to begin Faith of our Fathers. It is book four of Lynn Austin’s series The Chronicles of the Kings.

Today did not go as planned. But I did enjoy myself. Instead of painting I went to my friend Theresa’s to pick up the book. We are part of a Sunday night book club with our church. She is graciously allowing me the use of her book ---even letting me write my own notes in it –that is a true GIRLFRIEND. Once I got over there I enjoyed chatting with her as we sipped the wonderful tea she had prepared.

I feel so blessed today as I think of the first part of Psalm 68:6 ‘God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains:’. God has given me many wonderful brother and sisters. He just keeps blowing me away with goodness and mercy He shows me each day.

The smell of Chai Tea is luring me away from this laptop and back to the chair next to the fire.

Have you read any good books lately? Do tell!!!!

Blessings

I am sitting here typing, dressed but, with a towel wrapped around my head. It is a gloomy day and I really have no gumption. What I really want to do is build a fire in the fireplace and cozy down with a good book. But I forced myself to shower and came downstairs to get my scripture flip book and got sidetracked by the computer. I surfed the net for a bit stopping by some of my favorite sites. Holly at Homebodyholly is a favorite place to stop because we have the same “redemption” gene. She loves to save a unwanted or unused item and redeem it. I needed the push today to get my creative juices going. So while I would love to sit here and peruse more sites I am getting off to get my daily chores out of the way. Don’t worry I‘ll do my hair and face first-that way if someone drops by they won’t be frightened. Then I will finish the painting the trim in the bathroom. After that I am keeping my appointment with the fireplace and a good book. Have a blessed day and don’t forget to visit Holly.
