Here it is Monday again, and I’m sitting here
trying to think of something to say! My life is quiet these days—some might
even call it boring. And honestly, it is, but only because health issues keep
me close to home.
If I had my way, today
would start with a good ladies' Bible study. There’s nothing like diving into
God’s Word with a group of like-hearted women. Afterward, maybe lunch with dear
friends—fellowship is always so uplifting. And why not go shopping after that?
Even window shopping sounds fun. Then home in time for afternoon coffee on the
porch with Mr. D, a light supper, and finally curling up with a good book until
bedtime. Doesn’t that sound lovely?
Now, while I may not be
able to do all those things, I still find joy in the simple moments. I do study
my Bible—sometimes online, sometimes out on the porch. Mr. D and I always enjoy
lunch together; that’s the sweetest kind of fellowship. Shopping? Well, hello
Amazon! And yes, we still treasure our afternoon coffee on the porch, weather
permitting. And most days, there’s a good book waiting beside my chair.
And life goes on.
Thank You, Lord. ♥

Bible Trivia:
China is not only the largest producer of textiles and manufactured goods in the world; the country is also the largest producer of Bibles.
This was surprising to me. WoW
Blessings to All
Hello Mary, your family photos are lovely. Beautiful family. Everything you described at the beginning of your post is wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing ❤️
ReplyDelete☺♥, Thank you for visiting today.
DeleteMary, I love this Monday update :) Some of my favorite days (way back) were the days of gathering with friends for a morning Bible study. We all had babies back then, so getting together for an hour to talk about God and life was invaluable. And I love the cabin in Wyoming! What a view! Have a wonderful Monday :)
ReplyDelete☺♥, the cabin was inherited by my SIL and his 4 brothers. They all enjoy being there.
DeleteYes, I am pretty much right there with you in wishing to be able to do all those special things like before, but health (hubby's and somewhat mine, but not as much mine as his) keeps me from doing much right now. We are in a waiting game, and hopefully will get some answers tomorrow at a doctor appt. for hubby. Plus, like you, the heat keeps us from going out and doing too much right now. Oh, I love seeing those pictures in Wyoming! What a beautiful place! Yes, I would love to be there too! Wow!! The book sounds interesting...be sure to tell us about it. God is good, and we are blessed, and we are very thankful for what we DO have! And I am thankful for our online friendships here in blogland and beyond. They are a blessing to me. Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I'm also thankful for all my blogging friends. You are a blessing Pamela. ((hugs))
DeleteI like the cabin on the hill overlooking the lake. It looks so peaceful.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to Tammy, Cody, and Jason 🎈🎈🎈.
Thank you for mentioning Cora's Story. I will definitely look for that book. It sounds very interesting.
Thanks for stopping my MJ. Hope you're doing well. ☺♥
DeleteYour dream day sounds lovely to me, but I also enjoyo being home. Your daughters cabin in Wyoming is my dream. Dennis and I have talked for years about wanted a small cabin in the mountains. When we lived in Spokane, WA, we would often drive around looking at places and dreaming for retirement. Now that we're back in Nebraska, those dreams are not possible, but we can still take our trailer to some pretty places. Just not so isolated from others like the cabin is. We would love that.
ReplyDeleteThe trivia was fun too, with a few surprises in there. Thanks for the laugh about the flamingoes!
Blessings,
Betsy
The flamingos made me laugh too. ☺ Love your trailer, it is so wonderful that you're able to travel and have a good time.
DeleteYour post is not boring at all. I enjoyed all the information, and your photos! That cabin in Wyoming is beautiful. Have a blessed week ahead!
ReplyDeleteHi Terri! Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a blessed week also. ☺♥
DeleteThe day you described you would like and your actual day both sound nice!! :)
ReplyDeleteI have The Woman on my to read list. What a wonderful cabin on the hill!!!
Hi K. thanks for visiting today. OH that cabin, it's a wonderful place. ♥♥♥
DeleteSimple pleasures are the best, aren't they? (I just wish I realized that 40 years ago, lol!) That Wyoming cabin looks so welcoming; the perfect respite. Please let us know what you think of Cora's Story.
ReplyDeletePS - I don't think you're boring at all!
lol, a second comment that I'm not boring, That really has made my day. I sure feel boring....lol Thanks for visiting, hope your day is happy and blessed. ((hugs))
DeleteThat's not a boring life when you have someone to be with who loves you! Lovely cabin. I think the doggy is so cute.
