Cleaning, Clutter and Cats!

This past week, I spent a few days going through some boxes in our carport.  I realized I had many old Abeka test/quiz keys I didn't need anymore as well as last year's papers from the end of the year.  I also got rid of some books that were outdated - Abeka had updated those classes so I didn't need to keep those books anymore for future students.  Quite a lot went into the recycle bin!!


I don't know why I have kept this all these years.  It is a Speedy Reader that Addie had to use in K-4 when she attended Hammond Baptist Grade School.  Nostalgia, I suppose.


I had just recently asked my sisters if they remembered this book I owned as a kid.  I was trying to remember the author or find it online.  I didn't realize I had it still!





We had four bikes that we gave to my sister and her family.  Trying to clear out our carport.


I know.  I'm the crazy cat lady.










These are the two feral cats I feed.  The one on the step is my most recent.  Summer and I named her Callie but I call her Mama.  I am pretty sure she is one of the feral cats that had a litter of kittens about 6 months ago.  I am trying to trap her to get her spayed this Wednesday.

That's my boy, Brownie with her.  They are both waiting for their dinner here.


Stormy skies.




This is a cute video I caught.  Fig was watching a robin in the backyard looking for seed.  You can hear her chattering and then chirping if you listen closely.

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."...
