Some Random thoughts

I don't have any concrete well thought out thoughts to share so I would just thought I would jump on the random blog band wagon and share some random thoughts and tidbits of life lately. 

I finally finished my *ahem* read the whole Bible in 90 days plan.... I started it last October. While this means it took me much longer then 90 days to finish, I loved the time I spent reading and really focused on the Father heart of God as I read.  Now that I am done, I have started a chronological reading plan with no real time frame, other than to stay consistent each day and finish :-)  I also am looking specifically for all the ways God purses His people as I do this reading.  It will be interesting to read God's story in order of events.  I have never done that before.

It is so hot and humid today with the promise of a thunder storm tonight.  I am really hoping that this one happens and I don't miss it.

I would like to try living in a house like this:

Sod house at Fort Whyte

 
...I guess I should have tried out for that Canadian pioneer reality T.V. challenge a few years back...oh well. 

I am looking forward to seeing my Mom, Neil, Gran and Grandad tomorrow and I am praying that Grandad's day surgery at St. B goes smoothly tomorrow.

I am excited for an up coming road trip this weekend. It is time to go west!  I haven't done that since I was about 11 or 12.

I heard the most exciting news today!!! But no I am not going to share, and no it isn't about me :-)

I got a fun package in the mail today! i know it is totally girlie, but it was a package of brand new make-up!  I love it. It is going to be fun to play with.  Also, for the granola girl inside of me it is completely natural and locally made/packaged...and it is gluten free! Which is good for me as I still contend for healing. 

Well that is it, I have run out of steam...enjoy your Wednesday nights! Sleep well!

Words from a friend...

Hey all,

Here is a link to my friend Dale Anderson's blog.  He just wrote a entry that expressed exactly how I have been feeling for awhile.  I have felt a little sleepy and more than a little dull.  Despite that though God has been doing amazing things, providing financially, and doing amazing things with my family.  But this blog was a good encouragement to stir myself up again and to keep pressing on. With out further adieu, here is the link!

Stir yourself up...

One more to hit my top 10

Ok,  I have been finding such good creative music lately.  The newest Gosh Garells.  I came across his new album called "Love and War and the Sea In Between". If you like a lot of different sounds, you are in for a treat on this CD.  Country, Roots, Blues, Rap, Rock...he does it all and does it well. 

Here is one of my favorites from the Album, "Flood Waters" the lyrics are definitely inspired by Song of Solomon and Eph. 3.
