Sunday Blogging





So I'm into the whole journal keeping - blogging thing this year. It feels real good to open and share more this year. Don't know how this is going to go but it is fun to try. So in my daily journal, I reflect the day and review some of my lesson's learned (if I can remember).
With the new week ahead I will pull out one of those lesson's that really sticks with me and gets under my skin...for this week the lesson refers back to the "Serenity Prayer" specifically the verse that states "change the things I can"...I was walking through the garden department praying and meditating to myself and reciting this prayer, it hit me like huge bricks...instead of focusing on not worrying about what you can't do begin to really hone in on the things you can change. So I am pledging to take the steps on 3 things I can change per day - I mean really pay attention on the spirit lead changes I can make regarding the totally me - where ever the spirit directs.
So much for the reflection - now the things that made me happy this week...
Children are great, son got a B on his AP Econ test, daughter completed her homework for the holidays before midnight. DH is good too! Watching the 1st season of Heros!! and I tried to watch 1st season of the Twilight Zone but decided to return to the Library.
Note to self and everyone else...I am still searching and praying for a full time career driven employment opportunity - just saying.
To my Soulful Crafty Heart!
In December I Wiltons Crockpot dyed some fiber and in January I spun it up in January. Here are the results of the singles. I hope to ply the coming week.

HOPEFUL WITH SOME ADJUSTMENTS

I decided to divide the blog post into 4 subject areas. I think it will help keep my thoughts clear.
Here I go...
RAISING KANE (me and my family)
Re-living teenage years through my son has been beyond special. Independence 101, he is a great kid but the tests include the mind, body and soul. Then we go to the other end with the girl as she enters puberty. Add a now hot summer, no job for me and the boy then sprinkle everything else on top and we have a masterpiece!
EWE TALKING HOMESTEAD
What's on my needles, wheel and spindle...still working on a shrug from June for my daughter, recasting a baby sweater for a cousin, True Blood knit along. Completed the above spindle spun Romney. Loved working on my spindle with this fiber I think I want some more. Working on the backyard, didn't get the garden in this year I think I will be better prepared next year. Got painting and making some curtains in my mind. Stay tuned...
A HOT MESS
I have been unemployed for way to long. Praying and trying to find the right fit has been a test of all that I am. Really can't add more to this right now.
LIGHT FOR THE JOURNEY
Whew...lot a work not to waste your days, as I said before, you don't get them back.
I'm just saying...
