I pray you are all doing well.  Jeff was here visiting last week for Thanksgiving, and everyone had a wonderful time. My Dad was so happy and he is just so fond of Jeff. It warms my heart that my soon-to-be husband and my Dad get along so well. We also spent an evening with his mom and brother. We had a lovely Polish dinner (stuffed cabbage, dumplings, cabbage, etc so good!) and a nice time talking about family traditions, music, decorating, and future plans.  Jeff made it back Up North safely, praise God, and will be back in a few weeks for Christmas. I believe we should have our wedding date set before the ball drops on NYE! We've had to put it off for one thing after another - mostly personal and family health/illness/surgical concerns! But, we've realized there will be no end to those, so we are going to move ahead with our plans of a small, family church wedding....

My eating has been a bit out of control - but the last few days it has been getting better. My sister's chirrhosis is causing upheaval in the family. She's really sick and we won't know how bad it is until after testing in December.            *** The weather in my neck of the woods***   Monday - 48 cloudy Tuesday - 51 and rain Wednesday - 47 and rain/snow (low of 32)  Thursday - 38 with small chance of snow Friday - 35 and cloudy  Saturday - 33 and snow Sunday 37 and snow   *** What I am wearing ***  True crime addict t-shirt Black pants Black socks with pink flowers  *** Book I'm reading ***    I'm currently reading:         ...

I hope you are all doing well!            *** The weather in my neck of the woods***   It is going to be in the upper 40s and partly cloudy almost all week.    *** What I am wearing ***  Led Zeppelin oversize t and black and gray joggers *** Book I'm reading ***    I'm currently reading:  I hardly read anything. I have been looking through a bunch of Advent books from Kindle Unlimited - trying to decide what I want to do this Advent. I'm putting together a scripture writing plan for Advent. I'll share that here next week if anyone would like to follow along.  Bible:  Last week reading the crucifixion in all 4 gospels was so heartbreaking. This week we are reading the Book of Acts.    *** What's on my tv ***   YouTube  Days of Our Lives ***...

  I'm borrowing this idea from Ashley Hetherington - but switching it up for this older lady! Here is her You Tube video where she talks about doing the Holy 40 Soft!  I already do most of what is in this challenge - honestly, I do! But, I don't do them consistently. I'd like to finish out the year with my eyes on the LORD.  Here are my 7 rules for Holy 40 Soft:  1. Get up before 7 a.m. every day 2. Spend time with Jesus before picking up the phone  3. Take a prayer walk 4x per week 4. Eat whole foods 80/20  5. Pray before each meal  6. Either spend time being STILL with God or journaling to communicate daily 7. Spend 30+ minutes daily on your calling/ministry.   That's it! Pretty simple. I will be starting tomorrow, November 4th, so that I can finish on Sunday, December 14th. Although, these are all things I want to continue to do all the time.  If you're interested in joining in - make up your own rules! Or you can Google the og Holy 4...

    You can visit Sandra and join HHM HERE  It was a strange week. It started with me forgetting to post my HHM post. I wrote it, just didn't add it to the list. Then I ended up taking my sister to the emergency room (see last week's post for more information). I was out there several times this week and today brought her home. It's all just a mess. I'm stressed out and trying SO HARD to rest in the LORD and be a good representative of Jesus, but I am not doing a great job.            *** The weather in my neck of the woods***   It is going to be in the upper 50's most of the week, starting with sun and then several days of rain. Most excitedly, we have our first chance of SNOW on Sunday!! It'll be the first time we've hit freezing.    *** What I am wearing ***  A Fleetwood Mac t-shirt, black yoga pants  *** Book I'm reading ***    I'm currently reading:  I did not read at all last week  Bible:...
