Little by little bit by bit...I'm getting back to blogging. I don't think I'll get back to it as regular as before as God has my plate a bit full right now....but all in a good way! I took some time and read back over my blog....what fun that was! To reminisce over the past year was quite fun. There are a few things that I blogged about that I thought I'd update on:
The Family Summer Sunday"s sadly never came to pass. I don't really know why except that we had such strange weather this year...rainy a lot of the time. We did invite individual families out here and there...but never managed to get them all here together. Oh well there is always next summer :)
My oldest son E~ has had all his tests done and everything is OK! I am so thrilled that God watches over him. His bones are fine and his growth is fine for him and all his blood work came back just fine....There was some concern at first with his bone age test but turns out our regular Doc didn't read it right...the specialist cleared that up for us...oh God is so good to us. E~ got to see first hand for himself that prayer really can and does work!
The guitar lessons over summer went really s-l-o-w. In fact...we put it away for a time. I think that may go better during the quiet indoor times of winter than the busy roar of summer outside fun time....but I did learn a few simple songs.
Crochet went very well....I may blog on that later. The small projects went well and I have started my first blanket....again though working on a blanket when it's HOT out and it has to sit on your lap.....didn't go so well. So when I'm cold and sitting inside this winter, out will come the blanket to get finished up :D
The garden did Ok this year. We had SO much rain that I lost some things to mold. The pelting of the hard rain knocked my tomato plants over and they were even in good cages. With all the rain the tomatoes ripened FAST and many split open before I could get to them and they rotted quickly. I did get a good amount of fresh and enough frozen for many batches of chili this winter, so I'm totally happy with that. The green peppers did really well this time and I chopped and froze most of those for winter use. Part of the problem also this gardening season is that I had some personal troubles to deal with this summer that kept me out of the garden more than I would have liked. I really had to come closer than I have ever been to God over this summer than any other time in my life....so I probably did more growing this summer than my garden could have ever hoped to!! LOL! I want to take a moment to just remind everybody that God is really there for us when we need Him most. I know sometimes life gets really busy....and we may secretly wonder if He's really out there. Well let me tell ya, He IS!
In Him,
Moxie~
