Rising to another day is always a blessing, one in which thanksgiving and praise is offered to the all-loving Father. So it is with gratitude I begin this day.
~~Outside my window...it is very dark. It's 4:25 a.m. Sam's peering through the office window meowing to come in.
~~I am thinking...it would be grand to visit my friends Martha in NJ or Fay in TX and chat over a cup of tea.
~~I am thankful for...sunshine and glorious Autumn colors that reflect the sun.
~~From the kitchen...clam chowder.
~~I am wearing...my long-sleeved nightgown.
~~I am creating...the Book of Wit 'n' Wisdom.
~~I am going...have a less hectic week.
~~I am reading...still A Call To Joy by Matthew Kelly. I have found it to be a good book for reflection.
~~I am hoping...the weather continues to be glorious.
~~I am hearing...humming of the computer in the stillness.
~~Around the house...decorations complete for Halloween, just need to dust and vacuum.
~~One of my favorite things...watching old movies.
~~A few plans for the rest of the week: 1) continue to work on my vacation journal (it was a BUSY summer);2) prepare for Halloween travel to INDY to visit grand kids for the holiday;get my hair cut; 4) prepare Bible study for Thursday.
~~Here is picture thought I am sharing...

ReplyDeleteHi Cathy; so glad you had a relaxing Saturday (just past) and are looking forward to a less hectic week than usual. Matthew Kelly's influence? :) Enjoyed very much reading your posts about how inspiring he is!
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing your peaceful morning!
ReplyDeleteEven though our Autumn has been very wet it is still beautiful. Actually it's prettier than the very dry ones. The colors are more vivid. Don't you just love being a grandma. I hope you have a wonderful visit with them. God bless, Doylene
