what i was doing part '2'

garden tools, some old some new

my old sprinkler......see the four choices you have, you just twist it and the sprinkle will change!

an old cabinet with my 'outside' things
dad gave me the little gray pitcher (on top left)
the white enamel bowl by the pitcher was purchased somewhere on our Mineral Wells Vacation
the cow on the left just will not break, no matter what kid plays with him, he still has all four legs
you think being two faced is bad, the kitty planter on the bottom shelf has three faces.

dad gave me the kettle, I had the coffee pot, and the little vase with a handle matches perfectly
the bottle inside the little vase holds rocks from Bee Creek, a favorite vacation water spot
I love old heaters.
even if they're rusty

Don't Be Idle

This is Zephyr. She is the most discontent, unhappy cat I've ever seen in my life. She is selfish plain and simple. All she can think about is HER belly. This is not done in silence. When I get up (early), she's been up for hours wasting away. She's died of starvation 8 times. Don't be like Zephyr. The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment by Jeremiah Burroughs "Who are the men who are most discontented? but idle persons-- for they lie around and find fault with everything." (page 50-51) Zephyr is an unhappy cat. Not a happy camper. How about you? IDLE lazy, slothful, work-shy (ha ha) shiftless, inactive, sluggish (like a bad drain) without purpose DISCONTENT dissatisfaction with circumstances displeasure Have you no weeds to pull? No list to make or finish? No bread to bake? Nothing to mend or fix? No corner to clean? Nothing to learn? No letter to write? No project to fin...

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used. So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books. It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite. You were our first baby and we were so excited for you. Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me. You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on. You were such a fun little girl to read to. You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other. *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*. You have alw...
