Still Here......Occasionally!


I'm loving the bright sunshine and the warmer days and signs of spring that keep popping up all through the yard. It has to be one of my favorite times of year.
So it has been busy as usual around here with doctor appointments for my folks, school for Chelsey, planning for graduation, preparing transcripts, getting taxes done, filling out financial aid forms for our soon to be (in the fall)full-time college student, practice SATs, helping someone move, trying to keep the house in a semi-descent state for us to live in, helping prepare for the upcoming women's conference this weekend, beginning to plan and recruit people to help plan & carry out the Q222 end of year banquet, keeping up with exercise, keeping clothes clean, oh, and remembering what I need to get at the grocery store when I leave my list at home......but other than that, there really hasn't been much going on at all. In all honesty, I don't know what I would do with myself if my life was not busy and filled with all that the Lord has entrusted to me. I am grateful that I have the energy and the ability to do all of these things, and I think I have the ability to do them better than I do, and definitely can grow in that area of my life.
So now, the next thing I'm up for is to gradually begin some spring cleaning.....that would not be one of my favorite things to look forward to, but I think I am this year. I'm just not going to try to do it all at once.....which I have done several times in the past. There is plenty to do, and I'm really looking forward to doing it this year. I'm grateful that the Lord has blessed us with all that we have and I want to really make sure I keep that in mind while I'm doing the cleaning so I don't bend to grumbling and complaining.
On with the day!
