Tea Cosy, Laundry, & Packing


All I can say is that if it wasn't for the Lord I don't know how I would surivive this week....or any week for that. I have so many things to do I feel like my head is in a spin. I just need to continually remind myself that I am not along in my daily tasks and that he is always there.
*The picture above is one of my favorites. It is of my son and my parents dog, Daisy.*
I was able to finish up my canning at 11:30 last night and all the quarts sealed. The pint did not, but that is okay. I will have it for lunch today. As usual I am trying to catch up on my laundry since it is not supposed to rain today and as I do laundry, I am going to start slowly packing things to. Oh yeah...I guess I need to clean out the van and wash it too! *Deep breath in....and out.....* Okay..I am better now.
I was able to finish the tea cosy for my swap partner on Crochetville. I will wait to send it out after we get back from our trip though. I hope she likes it. I wish I could post a picture, but we can not afford a digital camera at this time. So...off to do laundry, packing, cleaning the van, and get the house in order for a bible study this evening with friends. Have a wonderful God filled day!

Melanie, that picture of Titus and the dog is a good one. The dog could be Star, except Daisy has a tail.

And Daisy is smaller, but probably not in weight. ;) She is a cross between a Welsh Corgi and we think a basset Hound. Mom and Dad got her from the pound my senior year of high school.

Show and Tell Friday (10/5)

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa...

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! This week I wanted to Show off Big T's latest adventure. Last week he attended Bible school and Grandma S' church. The theme was Avalanche Rance and I know there are a LOT of churches doing this one. It fit him perfectly since he has a love of horses. So I just wanted to share a few pictures from the last night of Bible school....or as Big T calls it, Cowboy School . ;) Here is a picture of Little E and Grandpa S waiting for the program to start. The next two pictures are of the children standing up front. Not good pictures, but you can tell they all have the "deer in the...
