I Added Something!

To be honest, I have no idea how I was able to add a bookshelf to my page, but I am excited that it's there! I am so hoping that when my friend gets home from California, she will be able to show me the ropes, so to speak. I just love how she has laid out her blog page. It is so fresh and bright.

Blessed to have a long week-end ahead. Dh is off Saturday and Sunday but is working Labor Day. It's one of his scheduled holidays to work. He is a hospice nurse and works in people's homes. He is the one who is there when someone passes, more often than not. God has blessed him with a tremendous gift of compassion. Who knew that after 21 years at one job, climbing the corporate ladder, awesome benefits, etc. that God would place this in his heart. He truly finds joy in being able to pray with and, yes, lead folks to the Lord while working. I just love him so much!

With the windows done and framing complete, we are now on to pressure washing, sealing and ultimately painting. So much going on in my mind regarding paint colors. We picked up paint samples to paint on the wall before we actually buy. We will put up the samples first, but I fear that I already do not like the color we chose for the trim to which hubby just rolled his eyes. He says "choose before we buy, lady! Once it's up, it stays up." He's so cute. ;-)

We have a team TBQ party on Saturday. I am a bit apprehensive to go, but am learning to work within myself to be able to stand tall and not be the door mat that I have been with certain people and situations. God is showing me grace and mercy as well as strength. I need to be a role model for my girls as well as others and am praying daily and searching God's Word for confirmation and wisdom. Parties are supposed to be fun, right? So...... I am PLANNING on having FUN!

Be Blessed.
