So much potential

April 4, 2020

HAPPY SATURDAY!!!!!!!

I slept in..... not sure what that means anymore..... I don't have a time schedule..... so really.... what does that MEAN?!!!!

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.

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.

Feel his love and know that we are new every morning.

I can't focus

April 3, 2020

Boy today I am distracted!!! I am really having a hard time focusing and not OVER THINKING.

Had great conversation with my sisters and my daughters via FaceTime . I feel hopeful but I need to focus on my sewing!!!

Ok , Breath Jenn........ the scripture says to " Be Still and know that I am God.........." Psalms 46:10
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.

Here is to today everyone........ have some tea and focus .

Clear my mind

April 2, 2020

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.

Three things for today :

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.

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.

Lastly, I need go for a walk. It helps me clear my mind , slow down my thinking ( I can't stop that )
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.

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!!!

Big Bang!

April 1, 2020

Hello blogger people long time no blog. I use to do this every so often and I see that is has been since 2013?

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?!

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!!!

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.

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 )

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) .

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.

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]

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.

Lets stay in touch world... I will try to post again.... this social distancing just might inspire me in one way or the other.

Thinking creatively

Hello everyone, I have posted so cute things in my shop . Please take a look and maybe even share it with other friends? It's called Pinhead Primitives if your interested. Thank you for looking.

"We spread an abundant and delicate feast in the programmes and each small guest assimilates what he can. The child of genius and imagination gets greatly more than his duller comrade but all sit down to the same feast and each one gets according to his needs and powers." Charlotte Mason, vol 6

Just read this. I need to slow down and take my time. She will learn.
