About Me

We're a blended family of six, two children still at home, two parents who want family to be just that....a home where God is first, love abounds and along the path we learn the skills and efforts to do some things we think are important. Life is not all sunshine and roses, but it should be a world we can look at confidently knowing we are abundant in God's favor and care....we lived in the rural country for five years, employment returned us to the city recently, but we are still very determined to live a quiet life, a simpler life and enjoy the gifts God gives us and share with others.

A Joyful Place
Tuesday, October 7, 2008
Tuesday

  Its another crisp cool morning in Alabama.  I have a messy kitchen to clean up this morning, I was simply lazy after the JV game let out at 8:45.  Yesterday's dinner was potato soup with bacon, fried okra, and homemade biscuits.  The potato soup had heavy whipping cream I had left over from something else, I cubed the potatoes, boiled them tender, drained, and then added 2 C of 2% mild and 1 C cream along with garlic, butter, pepper, and  a wee bit of onion.  They liked it alot, it was very rich and thick. I am doing Southbeach, so I couldn't have any of what I did for dinner so I had what I could have.

    Apparently last night it rained here lightly, which is good, the sun is not out yet today, its overcast and cloudy.  Dh and I discussed more the desire to move from town and find land (very small 2-5 acres) and begin the process of living the way we prefer (as we did before)  We will most likely stay here 2 years so son finishes high school, but even that isn't concrete....he prefers a smaller school too.  It seems impossible from where we are, with the housing market where it is, but God is God and he has given us each this desire, so we shall see His work first hand.

   I have a writing project due by Thursday for a writer I ghostwrite for.  It is not a tedious writing project but new software for the product has me dreading it, so this afternoon I will knock that out....nothing like getting something you dread off the table!

    Tonight is family night so we'll be having a family friendly meal such as spaghetti and then play a board game together for the evening then early to bed.  God is good and we are blessed!

I just wanted to pop in for a moment to let you know that I increased my font size from an 8pt to a 10pt. I hope this will make your visual experience more pleasant when visiting me :) I have a problem with blinkies, they don't get along with my migraines very well, so it is always important to me to know if my visitors need me to make changes. Thank you so much for stopping by my porch swing today and I do hope you have a blessed evening :)
