Cold January Days

Thursday, January 9

This boy loves his mama.

I drove home from our Aspire event in Atlanta in the morning. I do find it a little difficult to get going that day. Just tired.

We did have AHG at 4:30pm. Then Summer made our favorite meal - baked feta pasta! Yum!

Finished my first book for 2025. The Little Liar by Mitch Albom. Shorter read about the Holocaust. Loved it.

Friday, January 10

My first full day back at home after being gone for Aspire. I just love being home. It is the best. :)

The sky and sunrise didn't disappoint.

Chilly morning though!

Morning cuddles with Nugg.

First time in a VERY long time that my starter wasn't ready. Had to feed it twice and give it more time.

Enjoy having my ambience on during the day.

I had a LOT of cleaning to do this day!

Been such a busy beginning of January that I am just now getting to change my calendar for the month!

Made crock pot chicken and dumplings for dinner.

Saturday, January 11

I had to put my sourdough into the fridge overnight and let rise in the morning. Just too cold, I guess!

Always so good!

We worked on tests and quizzes for school.

Sierra is doing school on Saturdays to finish school on time by May 1!

Getting my steps in!

We made mediterranean chicken orzo pasta salad for dinner.

It was yummy!

I have used my fireplace a lot this month!!

Sunday, January 12

Always got a kitty on my lap!

For church, we went to Connection Groups and then we worked in the Preschool for church time.

Parent meeting for the upcoming Youth Choir Tour. We would love your support through prayer and financial! It is going to be a great opportunity for the girls!

I called my mom in the afternoon for her birthday.

I went to Aldi for some things I needed for the week. The price of eggs is incredible right now!!

The girls had Youth Group at 6pm so it was a quiet evening for me. Eric flew in at midnight.

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."...
