Voted in the 2024 Presidential Election!

Monday, October 28

How is it the last week of October! Wow!

Today was Day 52 of school for Summer and Day 48 for Sierra. Sierra will be behind Summer now since she took three days off for the College Getaway at Pensacola Christian College.

I finally finished up my grades for the first nine weeks of the 2024-2025 school year. Three more to go! A good accomplishment to begin this week.

I went grocery shopping in the morning for the week.

At 12:30pm, I picked up Eric at the airport. He flew back home from Dallas. On our way home, we stopped by the library to early vote for this election. So important! Obviously, this is a very important year as we are voting on our next president. We proudly cast our vote for Donald Trump.

In Florida, we also voted on a very important issue for Christians. Abortion laws for our state. No matter which way our state goes, I know that I voted for my morals and Biblical values for life.

We also dropped off in the ballot box our two oldest daughters' mail-in ballots. Sierra had taken their ballots to them to complete on her trip and then brought them back. The lady even gave them stickers. :) Their first presidential election to vote in! Addie is 21 and Autumn is 19.

As an older lady said to those in line as she left after she voted, "It is a privilege to vote! We live in a great country - the United States of America!"

I then made tacos and refried beans for dinner. I had the taco meat already made and just pulled it out of the freezer to thaw.

Want to spice up those refried beans? Add in some medium spicy salsa and just heat. So good!!

Yes, that's a great place to sit, Nugget.

My neighbor is a Christian. There are two ladies that come over on Monday evenings and he teaches them woodworking. He prays before he begins. (I can hear them from my house. :). I just love that! Believers are truly everywhere!

Eric watched Monday night football and I finished a few things up for the day.

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." Psalm 27
