It seems....

that life takes these turns, some more drastic than others, and you just can't see around the bend until you get there....

My best friend of 13 years (besides my hubby) is no longer. My best friend, I mean. I love her. I miss her. But I guess the changes Father is doing in our lives is more than she can comprehend right now. So - I am praying for her, and her family. She told me we don't have enough money to hang out with them. She said they are in the dark place we left and they have no intention of leaving there. She said she has her "own opinions" on what we do for our kids and their kids. Just confirmation that it's all okay and that pruning has to happen for growth. I'm growing. That's all I have to say about that.

Tonight is a football game, tomorrow is my HQ breakfast and tomorrow evening we're meeting up with friends we haven't seen in years. I can't wait! It is going to be so much fun!

We have no plans on Sunday. I wonder what we'll do? Maybe go on a bike ride? Work on the camper for our camping trip next weekend? Spend time alone? Or maybe... all of the above!

I spent a great morning with Cassie & Lacey, and I am so thankful to have had that time. I love those girls. I'm glad we had time together and planning Cassie's shower is so much fun. It's on Sept 19, and I can't wait! :-)

OK, this is total randomness blogging... so I'm off to check my to do list and finish up whatever I have for today. I need to be at the game at 6pm, to see the boy march! (Note the disappointment that his grandparents haven't made time to come see him play. Noted, and moving on...)

Blessings to all of you....

Moving on and over...

Life today is better for me than it's ever been. I am so incredibly blessed, and I have a Father who loves me dearly and guides me wherever I go. Since returning from HeartQuest, my life will never be the same. There was a dark place I lived in, and a darker place I spent way too much time in... and I hope I am never in either of those places ever again. Life in the Light is amazing!

I had a blog in another place, and decided it best to stop using that website and that blog. Father has led me to a place that others don't always understand. I love them, I always will, but they don't understand and in fact, want to make fun of where I am today. So.... I've pruned those things from my life. Father is amazing, at how He knows just how to speak to me and how clearly I hear Him now.

I have had a busy day. Cleaned the kitchen and all I have left to do is mop the floor. I will mop it when Addi lays down for her nap. She is eating lunch now, and I just had a sandwich from the bread I made this morning. YUM! I'm going to make chicken & rice casserole today, and I think I'll make some wheat rolls to go with the dinner. Hubby will like that! I'm working tonight, as part of my training. So I am hoping that won't take too terribly long. I'll have dinner ready for the oven before I leave so the family doesn't have to wait on me.

I am considering going to goodwill today. I want to look for a few things, including curtain rods for my living room windows, and maybe some curtains if they have any that would work for me. I really want to get my windows covered. Although, I may also make something out of some burgandy fabric I already have. Hmmm... that would be really nice! I'll have to see how much fabric I have for that. :-)

I'm very excited about all I can do to get the house fixed up and to sew for the grandbabies. Kylie picked out fabric for me to make her a coat for the winter! It's really cute. I also am making a bag for my band booster papers, etc. I think I'll work on that today too. Wow, it's noon and I already have a lot on my plate! Guess I better get off of here and get moving on that to do list! LOL!

Chayil!
