July Begins

Monday, July 1


More and more my kitties follow me around the house.  I often look up and find one of them there looking at me.  LOL!



So glad that my buddy is better!  I am so glad I took him to the vet and got him antibiotics.  He is better and peeing and pooping.




Here's my turkey fam that comes by to visit every once in awhile. :)





Nugget was watching them from inside.










Eric drove home from a work event in Orlando today.
Autumn and Summer will be dog-sitting all week at our friends' home for five dogs.
I did some errands - dropped off books at the library, grocery shopping at Wal-Mart, and mailed the IOWA tests and materials back.  I need to submit those test scores by the end of July for our school scholarship so I needed to get them back ASAP.

Tuesday, July 2

Today was a chill day.
I cleaned the house and did laundry.
The girls are dog-sitting.  I had to go to St. Augustine to pick up Summer for her horse riding lesson that evening with Sierra.


My favorite part of the day - sitting on the patio in the evening. 


Wednesday, July 3

The girls are still gone dog-sitting. :(

Today was lawn mowing and trimming day.  Wanted to make the lawn look nice for the holiday.


Here are a few photos from the Christian church camp where Addie is working.  One of her responsibilities is running the gun range.  Here are a few photos of her in action. :)



I was so glad to get to "see" her in action while she was gone these six weeks.


This is a before photo of my pantry.  I have been slowly making improvements to keep it more organized.

Just a throwback of me and my old man, Max.  I miss you, buddy.

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...
