The Hopeful Homestead

Thoughts for Thursday...

What a great day at home!  That's right.  We went nowhere today!  Actually, I'm wrong, Al actually went to the Dr., but then came home once they fixed him up.  I spent the morning puttering around, I hung the wreath on my kitchen window, fixed up the curtains in my laundry room, got rid of the last few vinyl blinds, ironed, mended a few things, and baked a batch of brownies.

This afternoon, Fr. Bill dropped by for a visit, and to do a House Blessing for us.  It was VERY cool.  The best part was it was just us, our kids, and our priest, thanking God for our wonderful home.  It rained most of the day, and we had severe storms rolling through south of us, but, just as we all finished the Lord's Prayer, the sky opened up, and the sun shone right down on our little home.  Amen.

Since then, we've been hanging out watching a Dr. Doolittle marithon, and enjoying each other's company.  Al's cooking chicken pot pie for dinner, and it smells GREAT!!!  I guess I should go out to the coop and check on OUR chickens.   Peace~
