Lots of stuff going on
Once again I am writing to say I am SO busy! I am liking the new Wordprss but am barely having time to even look at it.
- Have been helping mom make chocolates for Christmas presents–which is now done.
- Have been working on a painting for my bil’s Christmas present–a painting he requested.
- Have been running here and there doing all sorts of running around that has nothing, whatsoever, to do with Christmas other than wanting to get it done before Christmas.
- Have been spending a lot of time training the kids in their respective jobs which help to keep the house clean–Wiper wipes everything off, picker-upper picks up everything, sweeper sweeps. Thing is they don’t notice that those things need done and we switch weekly so they are still each learning to SEE.
- Have been working on several web pages for people, and getting a bit behind (and just remembered something I was supposed to look at last night and forgot.)
- Have been spending an inordinate amount of time on the phone. I don’t know why but I have, planning this, planning that, planning the other thing I guess.
- Have been short of words. My brain is in logic mode, trying to stay organized and planning, and so I have not been very creative which means nothing to write and what little creativity I have is going into the painting (I hope.)
- Have NOT been taking photos. I don’t do flash photography due to Rachel’s seizures and so when it gets dark outside all the time and I don’t have decent light I don’t take photos.
- Have had God thing after God thing happening but have no words so have not been sharing them. I do plan on sharing them but am still digesting a lot of them and figuring out what some of them mean to me and how I am supposed to respond. For the first time ever we have enough and more than enough and God is supplying our needs above and beyond, which feels odd since so many are complaining of lack.
- And I guess that is all. The kids have been very busy with numerous things, lots of playing out in the snow and movies, lots of writing and making, I do want to write about spelling soon but not yet. Looking forward to the new year when my brain gets clear and the house gets clear and everything gets simpler.
i remember you posted a recipe for making chocolates for christmas gifts LAST christmas. i think i should dig that out. it was such a good idea.
I am glad things are going well for you. I got some stuff to do chocolates today. I put some chocolate bark recipes up too. I know your family has allergies so they may not be suitable but you might be able to make some variations of your own. I will be doing my character post on diligence tomorrow and then initiative next week (unless I switch at the last minute). The great thing with doing the training is some things happen immediately. Unfortunately some things take a long time and like with any growth, there are growth spurts. It is great to be on the ride. I hope your life slows down after the holidays. I look forward to the time off, but we spend so much time out, eat so much and see so many people, I start looking forward to routine after awhile.
Thank you for your love and friendship. Merry Christmas.
I have some to make for the kids so I am thinking I should get photos and repost my how to.:)
You have been busy! Hopefully you’ll get to rest some in the coming days and enjoy the holidays in peace. It’s nice to hear of abundance, we’re hoping and praying for God’s provision in the coming months.
December does that to people! Blessings!!
