Be Still...

"BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD"

PSALM 46:10

Men!

My husband and I have different ideas on decor.

My side of the bed......

His side of the bed.

I can't even show you his table....oh my......but my pretty little decor to me......a hat rack to him.

Yes....we live in a cave.

It's my fault......I live with all men and instead of fighting the dirt, and camo  and "I'm not sleeping in a baby blue (because he won't know what turquoise is) room" I just painted everything brown.

You see.........dark

Living room.....brown

I didn't realize until I started looking at photos that when we take a photo in this room it gives everything an orangish glow.......not the look I was going for....:(

Even the outside of the house is brown.

One day.........when I get some energy.........and some money........and some helpers.......I will change it all....but until then........meet Brown.

I think that's why I love it outside so much especially in the Spring.

Color!!! Everywhere!!!

I saw this guy yesterday.

Darn it....I need to repaint my swing.....sigh......add it to the list.

I'm still trying to get my raised beds done.  It may be a fall garden...:(

I did have some help yesterday.

I hope the video loads......

I always have a lot of help......with the four legged creatures.....

Anyway.....this post has been all over the place.....

It's a beautiful day today and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Goodnight

I sit here in my floral pajama pants and grey sleeveless tank top sitting in front of my computer.

 Barefoot, just showered, with vaseline on my face.

I can hear the train outside going through downtown just a few miles through the woods.

 I left the door open earlier and now there is a buzzing, flying creature hitting against the light.

I can hear my husband listening to the news....it breaks my heart as I hear stories of the Boston bombing.

 I think about my boys and I say a quick prayer for each of them.

 I see motion to my left....it's my black and white kitty staring at me through the glass of the french doors.

  I get up and let
her in.....she's my cautious kitty....it takes a minute before she will come in.....darn another flying bug came in.

I think it's time for bed......goodnight all.....

My Favorite Tree

This tree................

This tree.....

I love this tree...

With it's short, fat trunk and sprawling branches

And best of all the beauty in its bountiful pink blossoms

I love this tree....:)

It's a Kwanzan Cherry Tree.....I hope you can get one too....:)

My thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Boston.

Another Day With The Lawnmower

This is how we use to crank the lawnmower....he only fixed it because someone wanted to borrow it.

My Turkey Hunt

Facebook excerpt last night : 

I know I must have had too much sugar tonight because I felt good and then I heard myself say...hey Shannon, I want to go hunting with you in the morning....oh my...what have I done?....so pray for me...no, him....no, me...well, I think we will both need it...sigh

 

 

Facebook excerpt this morning:

Well, I'M UP.....shhhh (whispering)....I mean...I'm up...Shannon told me to use my whisper voice (like I'm a two year old...sheesh) I've got my ghilli suit on and Shannon's boots that are 3 sizes too big for me. I like this ghilli suit........you can't tell whether it's my jiggly parts or the ghilli part....:).....I'm drinking coffee (which may not be good for later) and Shannon just asked "do you have on makeup?"......yes, yes I do.....only for the paramedics when they have to come pick me up after having a heart attack climbing hills and trying "not to breathe so hard" WHAT? NO, I'M NOT ON FACEBOOK....shhhh..don't tell Shannon......wish me luck...:)

Facebook excerpt:

Well....I've made us late...I knew I shouldn't have had that coffee...:(

 

And we are back

 

So after we leave this morning to go turkey hunting.....we didn't make it very far before an argument broke out
over the temperature inside the truck.......me hot.....he not....he said "Todd, my normal hunting partner, never
bothers the temp. controls.".....and I said...."Well I ain't Todd and I ain't normal...:)"......all I heard was mumble,

mumble....It wasn't so bad because we would stop and he... would listen for a turkey and I only once almost had
a panic attack....because he tightened my boot strings so tight and my ankle started itching and I couldn't even
get a finger in there to scratch it.....so I waited...and I bit my lip....and I waited...and I squirmed......and I finally
looked like a dog, scratching one boot with the other boot as hard as I could......and I got the evil eye then.....and
the next time he got out he handed me the face cover thingie and told me to get ready......so I tried it on.....several
different ways...(see photos)...

Does it go this way?

 

Then what is this black band for?

 

 

This way?.....no....too much face showing

 

Maybe the hole goes in the back?  just net?

 

I'm cool...

 

thumbs up for turkey hunters......told you I was bored....

 

.I still don't know how it goes.....

Hello sunshine.....is it time to go home now?

 

as time wore on I started getting verrrry sleeepy....
and then I started praying that he wouldn't hear a turkey (don't tell Shannon) and then the next time he got back
in the truck I told him I thought I had a kidney infection....turns out that my drawstring on my pants was just too tight...
so needless to say...we did not kill a turkey.....I'm sure it was MY fault......I may not get to go again.......darn....:)
