Went to early church, then Mary and I went to breakfast. It was nice to just sit and catch up – in addition to BACON! 🙂 Great spending time with a great friend. I stopped and got some groceries on the way home, then changed and went outside to start cleaning up the herb garden. It’s become a weed pit, and I’m going to rake up all the small stones, place them elsewhere, then get the lilac roots dug up and plant grass. Also taking the stepping stones out and including that area in the replanting. Got 3 steps moved and about 1/3 of the stones relocated. I feel like I’ve been run over by a bus!
Last night I was looking for something to watch on my fire stick, and found the old, original 1960’s TV version of Peter Pan, staring Mary Martin. I LOVED that show as a kid – I knew all the words to I’ve Gotta Crow!, I’m Flying, and Never Grow Up. Very surprised to find it so easily!
Yesterday I forgot to include a picture of the woven coaster that I bought at Barbara Ann’s. I really love it!
Gen just sent me a picture of Hadley and Lucy – they made flower spring crows today. They look beautiful! Makes me want to hug them – but Colorado is just a tad too far….
Today I will share Micah’s message: Signs of Life; Faith in God transforms life and gives us hope and a purpose. We were created for good works. Jesus made us alive! We have an amazing spiritual life: 1) by a powerful conversion, individual to us. God knows all about us and loves us. 2) to gain spiritual life we need to hear, believe & receive; that removes sin and gives us eternal life. We are no longer the enemy, but are the son/daughter of God! 3) before we had so sign of spiritual life. Afterwards, we have peace and life through a desire to learn, have answered prayer, and kindred fellowship. There are no degrees of sin; we need forgiveness and grace equally. Those outside of Christ disobey, were deceived, discouraged, and defiled. Satan steals our joy and peace – but it’s OUR choice when we do evil. God… can make a difference! He’s rich in mercy, full of grace. We need forgiveness; Then, all things become new!
On this day in 1963 Alcatraz prison in San Francisco Bay was closed. In 1971 Vermont’s seasonal snowfall was 132.2″. In 1980 JR on “DALLAS” was shot. It was a very big deal at the time!!! And in 1982 the movie “Annie” – staring Carol Burnett – premiered. Pocahontas died in 1617 at age 22 (didn’t realize she was so young!). In 1874 Ulysses S Grant’s daughter Nellie was married in the White House, and in 1891 A Hatfield married a McCoy, ending the long 20-year West Virginia feud. In 1945 Humphrey Bogart married Lauren Bocall. Tammy Wynette divorced George Jones after 6 years of marriage in 1975. John D Rockefeller III was born in 1906, and today my dear friend April is celebrating a birthday. She always calls me her second mom. We worked together at Smail’s for a LONG time, and I miss her very much! Best of birthday wishes, my sweet friend! See you soon!
