Still trying to blog

When I was in school so long ago, I loved to write...but for some reason I cannot get into the habit of doing it now.

Maybe I need to slow down some. Anyway I found this blog...which I really really like "Our Village is a Little Different" http://homeschoolblogger.com/brindamorr/.

Alright we made it off the Mountain today

and we actually made it to the Post office, so I have shipped several items today. The postmaster said they were going to try and get as much mail delivered today as possible, our trash pick up is going to try to resume today, and Forrest had to buy a shovel...lol...so he can try to shovel our walk and the neighbors walk, also...I really think he and Dover want to play.

Had to put up a new bird feeder, the old one got moisture in it and froze...poor birds...but new feeder is up...

Sunshine on my wall

We have sunshine coming through out windows this morning. but shhhhhh....don't say too much, it may go away...and we really like it and want it so stay. It have been such a long week....the snow has really brought a change to so many people's lives...they could not get to work, schools out of session, store shelves empty, businesses closed, no mail service (and you know that is never supposed to happen, what happened to the rain, sleet, snow thing for the mailmen?), people suddenly finding out they can't drive....so many changes.

OH well, bring on spring and flowers...I am ready...but it will be in God's timing not mine...:)

Reflections of a gray and white Tuesday...:)

Well the snow did not go away overnight...and it is FOGGY...so it really looks odd outside. I am afraid this is not going away for a few days...and so many things are still closed. But everything is so quiet, no traffic on the normally busy street, and our small neighborhood is very quiet, everyone stayin home.

The 23rd Psalm speak of the quietness that God gives us, verse 2
 "He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside still waters"

The quietness gives a good time to reflect. As I reflect this morning, I know He has blessed me beyone measure...with a wonderful husband, three beautiful children, their spouses, and 4 absolutely wonderful grandsons.

Although we are separated by many miles, I know their love, God answers my prayers for them...they are healthful, He keeps them safe for me, and I also pray He keeps them always in His wonderful loving arms. I am not there with them....but He is always.

PEace of God...

The  Bible speaks of the  "Peace of God"...I am always asking for peace, or answers to questions, or solutions to problems from God, or better still I frequently ask Him for miracles...but I wonder if I allowed Him to give me His peace.....would I have all these questions and problems? I think not......
