These photos were actually taken yesterday, but I love how the clouds looked like spilled milk.
Today the three grandgirls next door were out racing around, enjoying the sunny day! Audrey's wearing the uniform of the day. A t-shirt with mud boots and gloves. The gloves are so they can make snowballs to throw at each other and the boots are because the driveway is muddy. Hey, it must be 40 degrees (F) out there. Who needs a coat?
I felt a little cabin fever coming on today, but Micah and I didn't really want to drive all the way to Park Rapids (12 miles) and she really didn't need to go to the store. I had a list, so I headed 5 miles in the opposite direction of Park Rapids to a neighboring small town (even smaller than Nevis!) that has a Dollar General. Our Walmart has been out of a lot of things, but this little Dollar General even had toilet paper! I have plenty of TP, not because I bought huge amounts when this started, but I did buy one extra package. I bought what I needed and thought this is probably a great boon for these little small town grocery stores who are now getting some business. I'll give them mine! Next time I need anything I'll probably just drive into Nevis and check the two grocery store/convenience stores we have. It was nice to just get out and drive for a bit. I took a nap when I got home, which also made me feel better. :)
Here is a little group of "inchies" I made in the last couple of days. I'm not sure who will get them. They're for a PIF (Pay-It-Forward) Blind Inchie swap where you just post and ask who wants them, and the receiver doesn't know what they look like until they get them. I like these swaps because I can make any theme I like.
I'm planning to watch my church's online service from yesterday. Whoops! I forgot to tune in! I also watch
Open Door Church in Burleson, Texas. On another uplifting front, I might subscribe to PureFlix. I have no TV and this having-no-movies-to-watch thing is getting old!
I still have plenty of books and artwork, but it's nice to have something with sound now and then. I listened to lots of music on YouTube this morning, but I can only take so much of that and I need some calm again. So, I'm back and forth. :)
Thanks, everyone, for your blogs! It's good to keep in touch with folks from around the country and the world! Gretchen, I'm having some problems commenting on your blog but, hopefully, that will work itself out. ;)
Stay safe and well-occupied! It's a good time for prayer and contemplating on the things of God. I need to keep that foremost in my thoughts.
Love you all!
Shalom!
Dear Lisa, thank to to give me here the possibility to look into your day! What a fine blue sky! I LOVE this old snow!!
ReplyDeleteHere in Germany all people bought all paper for toilettes. I still have some sheets of it - - Maybe tomorrow I will get some from my church, because it is closed. Normally I make the flowers for my church for every Sunday. But now everything is strange -
May the Lord hold His sheltering hands over us - - -

A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
DeleteAm so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.

I'm sorry to hear that people are having this problem commenting again. :-( Twice in the past I looked into it and it's nothing obvious on this end. Probably more of that Google vs. WordPress unfriendliness cropping up again? I hope it does go away.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're free to go shopping. Here, I haven't been off the property for 11 days. They want younger people to shop for us. I wonder if eventually your area will also "lock down" tighter?
When we lived in Iowa, the kids were like that in spring. It would be quite chilly still, but they'd go out without coats, relishing the freedom of movement and excited about a little warmth.
ReplyDeleteI feel cooped up sometimes too, even though we are certainly warm enough to be outside. 85 today! Cooler tomorrow. But sometimes you want just a taste of normalcy. So glad you have family next door! I've been longing for a good movie too.
