<br />
I am cleaning and baking as if my family from NY will be joining us here in NM. I won't make as much food but I am cleaning and preparing as if I was home.<br />
<br />
I love holidays and will miss seeing the kids hunt for Easter eggs but I am so very thankful that my kids have each other .<br />
<br />
Blessings to you all during this Easter weekend.<br />

<br />
Yesterday was an emotional roller coaster for me. So many downs through out the day....... but it ended with a positive note. I don't really want to get into it.... I am just glad that its over.<br />
<br />
Today is a new day. Showered and ready to focus on Easter and all that it mean to me. Thursday is when it all begins. Jesus washes the disciples feet..... ( I can't imaging how they felt ) Then sharing the first, what we call communion . I think I would have been very confused but yet honored that He was sharing the passover with me.<br />
<br />
Well all I can say is this whole week has great meaning to me, and has since I was little. I didn't grow up with the easter bunny ( my mom would pretend to shoot them as we drove by the yard decorations ,lol) I grew up with knowing how amazing Christs death and resurrection was and how is is the reason why I call myself a Christ follower to this day.<br />
<br />
When I say " He is risen"..... I whole heartedly say....... " He is risen INDEED!"<br />
<br />
<br />
Blessings to you all,<br />
<br />

Good Morning,<br />

I don't have much to say today........ I think its ok to be quiet and just see how the day plays out. I know that we have a lot of time on our hands and we still can feel overwhelmed by all that we have to do....... ( I thought I had nothing to say ...lol ).... here I am miles away from home and feel like my ,list of stuff to do is swallowing me up.....what is my problem!!!!! This is a time of being still and I STILL make my self busy......Breath Jenn, Breath.....<br />
<br />
Job 33:4 " The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life"<br />
<br />
Breath on me Lord!!<br />

<br />
Today I find myself thinking about how what we say is so important. When I say I will do the dishes , I will get them done. When I say that I can do that for you.... I will do it.<br />
<br />
Isn't that the same way God is? His word is full of things that He said he will do. Now it not always when we think he should do it.... but he always comes through..... even if we don't see it right away.<br />
<br />
I am so quick to doubt ....... I don't mean to , but I do. All this to say is...... I neeeeeeeed to trust Him more.<br />
<br />
Psalms 20:7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we (I) trust in the name of the Lord our God.<br />
<br />
I trust in his Name!!<br />
<br />
Blessings on your day.Jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00747766624545178127noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896530893668534051.post-33055165528084562572020-04-05T06:59:00.001-07:002020-04-05T06:59:35.444-07:00Wet LandsApril 5, 2020<br />
<br />
Happy Sabbath , It's Palm Sunday. I remember as a child my sisters and I would grab reeds from a wet land area ( I think we lived in Colonie ) and with the neighborhood friends we would pretend to lay down the reeds on the ground for the donkey that Jesus would come riding on. It seemed so magical as a child to do this.<br />
I can't imaging how it felt for the people of Jerusalem to see this man who was riding a young donkey ( just like the scriptures for told) with the hopes that he would come to rule and save them all from the oppression of the Romans. How exciting!!!! I mean he was going to save us !!! ( yes I am using a lot of !!!!!!)<br />
<br />
What the people thought is not what God had in mind. Isn't that true to this day . We think God is going to do what WE think He is going to do....... ( we are a small minded people) He has a plan BIGGER then what we know.... ( He alway does)....... So today I rejoiced in the Lord always and again I say rejoice Philippians 4:4<br />
<br />
I will worship him with my whole heart!<br />
<br />
Blessings, JennJennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00747766624545178127noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896530893668534051.post-57012054788910743552020-04-04T10:05:00.002-07:002020-04-04T10:05:55.082-07:00So much potential April 4, 2020<br />
<br />
HAPPY SATURDAY!!!!!!!<br />
<br />
I slept in..... not sure what that means anymore..... I don't have a time schedule..... so really.... what does that MEAN?!!!!<br />
<br />
I think its good to have goals and not totally let go of ourselves. So that being said.... here is to a new day with so much potential to be awesome.<br />
<br />
I leave you with this scripture . Romans 8:39 .........neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.<br />
<br />
Feel his love and know that we are new every morning.<br />
<br />

<br />
Boy today I am distracted!!! I am really having a hard time focusing and not OVER THINKING.<br />
<br />
Had great conversation with my sisters and my daughters via FaceTime . I feel hopeful but I need to focus on my sewing!!!<br />
<br />
Ok , Breath Jenn........ the scripture says to " Be Still and know that I am God.........." Psalms 46:10<br />
I will say that I have a real hard time sitting still. I think I need to be still in my mind.......focus on one thing at a time...... GAHHHHH this is hard today.<br />
<br />
Here is to today everyone........ have some tea and focus .Jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00747766624545178127noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896530893668534051.post-79631332657920223362020-04-02T07:13:00.003-07:002020-04-02T13:54:31.493-07:00Clear my mindApril 2, 2020<br />
<br />
This morning I woke up feeling the need to have a goal, a purpose , a focus on what the day will bring. Its hard to think this way from day to day when your social distancing ( staying home ) but I need to stay focused.<br />
<br />
Three things for today :<br />
<br />
Do some yard work. I know this doesn't seem to be inspiring or anything. But I will tell you its like cleaning the house... it feels so good when its done. So weed wacking and trimming bushes will happen this morning before the NM heat.<br />
<br />
Secondly : I need to get some sewing done. I enjoy this and its part of my creative outlet. I have some facemask orders to fill while I stock up on masks to give to friends and family. During this time of the Covid I want to help anyone I can while still distancing myself.<br />
<br />
Lastly, I need go for a walk. It helps me clear my mind , slow down my thinking ( I can't stop that )<br />
and keep my heart pumping. Proverbs 17:22 says "A happy heart is good medicine and a joyful mind causes healing....." So my goal for today is to have a happy heart.<br />
<br />
I hope and pray that you also can have a happy heart and joyful mind during this time of life. ( I know its hard) Today is a new day!!!<br />
<br />

<br />
Hello blogger people long time no blog. I use to do this every so often and I see that is has been since 2013?<br />
<br />
Well , as you all my know the Corona Virus has hit planet earth like the new Big Bang ( not that I really believe in that ) but OMG.....So up date for me and my family. My husband and I are here in New Mexico since February helping my FIL ( who just turned 92 in March) with some upkeep and projects that he would like done. We are from New York State......... do I need to say more?!<br />
<br />
So while we are here on the west coast my family is all on the east coast while Social distancing and trying to live there lives in close quarters. MY grandkids are being eschooled with the patience from my wonderful DIL while her husband is home working on project and taking cool videos of fox chasing there chickens!!!<br />
<br />
My second born is a new mom to a 6 month old and id working......... in the ICU!!!! I am amazed and so proud of here not only doing the mom thing but being a nurse during all of this Corvid-19.<br />
<br />
Number three is moving with her fiancé to our house . They are both laid off because of this virus and she is doing college online , plus trying to plan a wedding that is suppose to happen in August!!! ( Lord PLEASE )<br />
<br />
Number four lives at home and now will have to share the house with his sister and future BIL. He still has work ( thank the Lord) .<br />
<br />
I love my family and during all of this uncertainty and literally being on either coast lines fear can have a way of taking over my thinking.<br />
<br />
So I leave you with this Scripture 1 Peter 5:7 AMP ...... cast all your cares [ all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares about you [ with deepest affection, and watches over you very carefully]<br />
<br />
I know we don't know what the future brings but I do know and believe that God has a plan ( I don't see it honestly) but I do know this in my heart.<br />
<br />
Lets stay in touch world... I will try to post again.... this social distancing just might inspire me in one way or the other.Jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00747766624545178127noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-896530893668534051.post-64969422417142181192013-02-01T10:20:00.000-08:002013-02-01T10:20:09.101-08:00Thinking creatively Hello everyone, I have posted so cute things in my shop .

It's the thrifty part of me. I thought up this little denim bulb in my head two days ago<br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=11/11/05/3038.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/11/11/05/s_3038.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />I thought maybe I could make these for family gifts . Or maybe if there is enough interest I can sell them. They are made with recycled denim. I little bit of sewing on the machine. Some hand sticking and a button from my mother-in-laws button stash.<br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=11/11/05/3039.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/11/11/05/s_3039.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />So if you like them and would like two, they sell for $8.00 With shipping.<br />Give me a shout if your interested. If not, tell me what you think.
