Oh These Days....

Another weekend is upon us. Never ending things to do. I went shopping this afternoon as I didn't feel like doing it after my dental visit on Friday. It did go ok, with my back tooth being prepped for a crown. It was cracked and cavity and I didn't even feel it! Mmm! Stopped and bought a few things at a health food store in town after dental visit.  Gathered a few things for a Young Living Oils and Make and Take event coming up soon at my house. Vitamin E oil for soap and 2 oz, glass spray bottles for room freshener. Glad to get from them instead ordering online. Did order foaming soap bottles for the event though....interesting how that works!

I often wonder how it feels just being at home.  Life gets so busy...and then I remember when I was younger with children. I enjoyed being home but wanted to be elsewhere too. Now I'm older, working 4 days a week and need to prioritize my time at home.  This morning I worked on clearing away things on table...bills, mail that was set aside, some of it trash....gone! Food prep for a few days.  More cleaning. Resting and blogging. Life is a cycle where we go from young and need of education then older, but still need to learn things...never a time to stop learning something new. 

Cherish the good times, make it through the struggles, and pray without ceasing as God's there for me and for you!

Interesting devotional reading today and yesterday were right on track with my life right now. God has a way of helping me through it all. Other people, some younger than me, struggle at times.
"But as for me, God's presence is my good. I have made the Lord God my refuge, so I can tell about all you do." Psalm 73:28  
"Rather than waiting until something hard happens before reaching out to God, talk with Him right now. Tell Him about your day. Invite Him into your daily thoughts and choices. I promise He's interested."

 Working through it today makes me feel back into the groove of life, guilt-less and happy. Enjoying the beautiful day out. Sweeping up leaves after watering plants late evening. Finding a blog post written by my friend Laura out of Canada was a good read as well.

Thankful for guardian angels protecting Megan as she was almost hit by a pickup truck coming home....over the overpass! He went through a red light that was obviously red and people, including her, were honking their horns at him. Talk about an adrenaline rush for her! The light was green on her side. I gave her a big hug and helped her with a late dinner. Sigh! Life gets scary at times. Give God the glory for protection!

"Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise.
 Give thanks to Him and bless His name." Psalm 100:4

Have a blessed weekend!
