The Cruze Is Done!

Tuesday, September 24

Happy birthday to our second-born daughter, Autumn!  She turns 19 today.  I will miss celebrating with her but I hope she has a great day.  Addie and Kylee had a little party for her Sunday afternoon and here are a few photos from that. :)




I had an appointment for Jackson at 10am today at the vet.  His one ear has been bothering him so I wanted to take him in to get some drops to clear up the infection.

I got a few things at Wal-Mart to make stuffed pumpkins this week!

I dropped off Jackson at home and then left again to get my hair cut at Great Clips.


My sourdough starter.


Always holding those cats.



I then got a text that the Cruze was done.  We had it towed to a body repair shop to have it fixed after my husband had an accident.  It looks great and you can't tell it had been in an accident.  When I hit our neighborhood, the light came on that the AC kicked off because it was overheated.  The first thing I checked was the coolant and it was very low.  Not sure why.  I put coolant in and took it on a test drive.  It seemed to be fine then but I am going to keep my eye on it when I drive it this next week.



I also stopped by the library to pick up my hold, Auto Zone for my gas cap, and Aldi for pumpkin donuts but they didn't have any.  Sad face.

I wasn't feeling great.  My shoulders and neck were so tight and it gave me a migraine.  I made chicken stir fry for dinner.

The girls left for their soccer practice at 7pm.  I cleaned up the kitchen as much as I could and lay down with some migraine meds.  While waiting for it to kick in, Autumn FaceTimed us which was nice.  We spent a long time talking with her and catching up - Eric and I together.  The girls came home and joined in the call as well.  It was a nice ending to the day and I was able to sleep well - thank you, Jesus!

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."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1.  Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2.  Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3.  Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4.  Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5.  Pray for your students. 6.  Have a monthly or quarterly contest for your students.  Include bringing their Bible, saying memory verses, attendance, etc.  Award small prizes. 7.  Have a special craft once a month. 8.  Rev up your teaching time!  Use props such as costumes, pictures, videos.  Make your lesson time come alive.  Teach your lesson 2-3 times during the week out loud – you will be amazed at how you will be able to teach it to your students – not just following the words in the book. 9.  After the lesson, be creative!  Students should not just be sitting and waiting for Sunday School hour ...
