Neither store had much going on; I was done before noon. Picked up a prescription refill and stopped at Palmer’s farm stand. Got a few tomatoes, half a dozen ears of corn, and a yellow squash. Had corn for lunch.
Not too much blooming in the gardens right now. It’s been too hot and too dry. But there were a few…
I didn’t have a lot on my list today. The end of the week will be really busy so I’m easing into it. Scrubbed the bathroom sink and put Draino down it. Just a preventive precaution. Did a load of laundry, then scrubbed my outside garden shoes. They had gotten grungy, mostly on the inside.
It’s hard to dust the little Amish people and house on the book shelf, so I put all the little people in a basin of soapy warm water and let them soak (hope they can swim!) Once they dried off on a towel I put everything back together. Looks much better.
I have a tree guy coming tomorrow to give me a price of cutting my trees back. As per picture they are WAY bigger than the house, and bigger than I feel is safe. We’ll see what he says.
Yesterday’s sermon from Todd was very good. It was called ‘Searching’ and was about making choices and decisions. A statistic he quoted was that if you are at least 70, you have made 1,788,500 decisions so far. And as a single parent I probably made more than that (Thanks, Deb, for that thought…)! No wonder I’m tired of making decisions!
Our lives are about the person we become through every situation, not what we actually accomplish. God can use a wrong choice if made with the right heart. Choices are important but what God is doing in your heart while you choose is more important. God doesn’t measure performance, but our intent. So basically we can’t let our mistakes and wrong choices paralyze us – that is Satan telling us that.
My blessing today was the beautiful sky with the fluffy clouds.
PEANUTS Thought for the day:

International Day of Friendship; National Rock Day; National Cheesecake Day; National Father-in-Law Day; National Support Public Education Day; Paperback Book Day; Share a Hug Day; World Snorkeling Day; National Climb a Mountain Day.
Yesterday’s fake day was National Turquoise Day. Tomorrow let’s celebrate hugs, friendship, and paperback books! God bless…
