~ Tuesday, September 16, 2008 - The Simple Woman's Daybook~Week 2 and My Weekend...

Hi Everyone! :) I am going to be doing the Simple Woman's Daybook on Mondays, but since I didn't have a lot of time to do it yesterday, I just thought I could do it today! Though, I will be originally be doing them on Mondays. There are a few more different questions than the last time I did it. Here it is:

 

For Today…Tuesday September 16th, 2008 at 4:27 PM

 

Outside my Window… A pretty day outside, though not too sunny, and our peach tree with no peaches on it because they all got blown away by the wind this weekend.

 

I am thinking…That I really want to be able to make some cards today.

 

From the learning rooms…We have finished school for today, but I had a Really good day! :)

 

I am thankful for…That I can Trust in the Lord, and know that He will always will be with me and help me. I have been reading in Judges lately and I think it is so neat that even when the Israelites went away from God and served false gods, and when they were in captivity and cried out to God, God still listened to them and gave them a Judge over them. God answered them and provided things for them even when they didn't listen to Him. God is SO good! :)

 

From the kitchen…My sister and Mom making Jello, and my Mom cooking meat for dinner.

 

I am reading…Judges in the Bible, I also finished the book "Our Only May Amelia" by Jennifer L Holm today, and will be starting the book Boston Jane: The Claim by the same author tomorrow. :)

 

I am hoping...  To make a few cards and do a few other things today.

 

I am creating…This post lol, no nothing at the moment.

 

I am hearing…My mom and sister talking in the kitchen, though I can't hear them very well as I have the door closed.

 

Around the house…My mom and sister talking, and nothing else really going on.

 

One of my favorite things…A beautiful, not too hot sunny day, with a slight breeze like today. :)

 

I am praying for…Many people from our Church, and America for The 20 Day Prayer Challenge.

 

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week...To do schoolwork this week, tomorrow is Forword (Youth Wednesday Night Bible Study at my church) which we will be going to, and this Saturday we will be going shopping maybe. :)

 

I accomplished since last week…My schoolwork and I got to put a few posts on here last week. :)

 

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...

 My Sweet Kitten Maggie! :) She just got de-clawed and spayed yesterday so she is healing up. My dad brought her home this afternoon. She is doing really well, because she really wants to play! We are keeping her in my mom and dad's bathroom for a week or so. Whenever I go in there to pet her she sounds like a lawnmower with her purring so much! She is such a sweet kitty. :)

Also, it has been Crazy this weekend! On Sunday we got the extra wind from Hurricane Ike and since we live in Kentucky and barely Ever get this much wind it was really crazy! My family went out to eat with my Grandma, Grandpa,and Aunt after church, and when we got done eating and went outside it was at least 20 mph winds or more! It got up to probably 30-50 mph when we went grocery shopping in Wal-Mart after eating out. The wind got so hard that Wal-mart's electricity went off, and we had to hurry up and get checked out while the register still had a little power. It was really weird, but just to imagine wind up to 100 or more mph and water with that in TX! It really made me feel for the people suffering from Hurricane Ike!

 

We are So thankful that our electricity didn't go out! Many, Many peoples homes didn't have electricity Sunday, yesterday, and maybe even today. They had to cancel many schools too. God blessed us greatly with our electricity not going out! We went to check later on Sunday to see if another Wal-mart was open because we didn't get groceries only clothes and toiletries. There was So many people eating out because they didn't have electricity! We checked Wal-mart and it was Pitch Black. (We did eventually get groceries at another Wal-mart yesterday)

 

God has blessed us with so much and we often take it for granted. So many people right now don't have water, tv, electricity, but some people around the world don't have ANY of that stuff and they are still happy! Are country is Really spoiled. I am too. I need to remember all that God has given me, because He has given me SO much! :) Thank you LORD! :)

 

Well, I should go. Sorry about the huge post. lol

 

I hope everyone has a Wonderful Week! :)

Our power is back on!! We got it on Friday afternoon at about 3. I am so thankful! I did not deserve to have power after all of the complaining I did, but God is so forgiving. :)
You're SO lucky yours didn't go out!! Our neighbors down the road that dad works with still don't have power. :(
I need to go now.
