Beautiful Blessings - Thankfulness Series

(I am kinda stealing this idea from my Mom's blog, but hey, she won't mind ;~) Heehee!)

As I said, my poor blog is neglected, so I am going to start a new series to try and post nearly every day. Beautiful Blessings shall highlight points of my day, and what I am thankful for. So without further ado, what I am thankful for today!

My beautiful blessings of today:

~ The pencil box...it contains unlimited combinations when you use your imagination!


 ~ Medicine and rest to kick a migraine.
~ Going 5 days since my last migraine, and going a whole week from the one before that.
~ Having a bright bubbly T-bug curl up with me, make me laugh, and give me hugs to make me feel better.
 


~ And lastly, listening to the water drip off the roof and trees outside!

Blog Neglect = Rambling Post

I stop doing a series and poof! I disappear from the face of the blogosphere. I'd start another series but I havent decided what yet ;~) I could bring back one of my old ones but I'm still not 100% yet so I'm not sure how consistant I'd be. Hmm....

I can always do one of those thinking, feeling, and so on posts! :~D

So without further ado!

Right now I'm...

...enjoying a spot of tea on the sunroom porch!

...wearing my fantabulous new apron which I'm madly in love with!

...happy because my hair is super curly today....gotta love humidity!

...looking forward to some delicious homemade bread with dinner tonight!

...gazing at the beautiful blue sky,

...and watching the wind blowthrough the trees!

...listening to the birds twitter, 

...a plane fly high overhead, 

...and the delightful sound of keyboard keys clacking!

...feeling the cool air from the overhead fan!

...thinking about how my friends are doing,

...and praying for them!

...marveling at how big my sisters are getting!

...thanking God for Lil' G's cast for her arm!

...reminiscing about going to CYIA camp for 4 years in a row!

...being absolutely silly with my friend(s)!

...seeing birds flit about,

...along with a few butterflies!

...hoping the lovely weather lasts all of today!

...remembering I forgot to take my vitamins! (oops! lol!)

...taking my vitamins!

...laughing at this rather random blog post!

...wiggling my feet,

...and tootsies!

...wishing I felt up to reading!

...wondering who is going to read this allllll the way to end!! lol!!!

(a random post needs a random picture lol! this is a couple months old but hey! it works, right???? lol!!)

So voila!! My life in a nutshell! XD

Photo-A-Day - Day 30!



"Future" - the past 2 days I have seen sun-dogs, moon-dogs, and rainbows! All have been poignant reminders of hope from God for me. What beautiful reminders they have been!!!


Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
