Happy Homemaker Monday
Hello ladies, I hope you are all doing well this morning and had a terrific weekend! Mine was restful, yet very full. This month has been so jam packed with learning that I'm a little beside myself with trying to fit it all in.
I've been part of Edie Wadsworth's Life Mentoring School and Business Mentoring school, which is several times per week. I have returned to Heather Baxter Ministries for online Bible Study and fellowship - this is also several days a week with a lot of homework. I joined Tiffany Croww's 75 Self-Love Challenge too - which is yoga and other daily habits meant to build self-love. Full time job, full time family and on top of this I'm writing my Women of the Word Bible Study. I love it ALL and don't want to stop any of it.
♥♥ The Weather ♥♥
We are going to have some cold, cold days - but it looks like we will be having some sun! I'm excited about that.

I'm typing most of this up on Sunday night - as I am not sure how busy it will be at work today. Right now it's dark!

Half watching a movie with Jeff while the kids bring in a small grocery haul. We have on "The Girl with All the Gifts". Pretty good movie. The book was better.

♥♥On my bedside table♥♥
A whole lot of stickers! Books, my annotation pouch, tons of pens, my cup of Dr. Pepper Zero. A really cute journal. The outside is a quilted cover I purchased on Etsy. The inside is a journal with gorgeous water-color pages from Amazon.

♥♥ How am I feeling ♥♥
Pretty good! Other than feeling rushed all the time - which I do not like. It's making me not enjoy some of the things I usually do - like watching movies with Jeff and a K-Drama with my Bestie. But it's just for a season, right?

I have had very little time to read. I am keeping up with the War and Peace read-a-long and still love it very much! I'm also reading Atomic Habits for the 75 Self Love challenge.

Jake for his job interview tomorrow and for depression
All the anger, violence and misunderstanding in the world
♥♥ Devotional, Bible Verse ♥♥
“On the seventh day God rested from all his works.”[c] 5 And again in the passage above he says, “They shall never enter my rest.” Hebrews 4:4-5
It's always tough in the busy seasons, hope you get a few moments here and there to catch your breath. Prayers the job interview goes well and the depression lifts (maybe the sunshine will help a bit with that). Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteI did some thinking about it this morning and decided that I had to cut something out so I would enjoy everything else! I'm looking forward to seeing the sun!
DeleteYou sound like you're very busy, so hope you take some time to relax. I hope the job interview goes well. Your menu sounds yummy too.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing you joining in again, it's always great to catch up. Have a blessed week!
I ended up dropping the Life/Business mentoring school. It is super amazing - and I may do it another time - but there is so much else that is going on and those things are more directly related to my calling!
DeleteI am really glad to be back too. I PLAN to stick around this time lol. I finally have some job peace and some breathing room to do some blog hopping and some posting here and there! You have a blessed week too!
wow! you are busy but looks so many interesting things. Learning new things is sooo much fun.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week
I am definitely a life-long learner! I love to do research and delve more deeply into things! Hope you have a great week too!
DeleteI am not a fan of being rushed either. Prayers that things slow down for you. I love cheese tortellini.....yummy!! Our weather is cold too, I don't like it...lol.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice evening :)

Is the sun shining today? I hope so for you and I wish you a great day. When is the job interview? If it has already taken place, how did it go? Thank you for your blog post. I will also pray for all the misunderstanding in the world.
ReplyDeleteAll the best,
