There is just something about that first cup of coffee in the morning that can make my day. I like it hot-extra hot-fairly sweet and creamy. Yummy! I guess you can tell that I am sitting here having a perfect cup of it-right now. Yep, I am sitting in my very cluttered computer room in my nightgown and a pair of jeans, barefooted--(I did brush my hair..)--looking out my opened window and enjoying my first cup of the day. The sun is trying to peek through the clouds causing my backyard to have shadows that seem to be dancing in and out of my view. I love the morning; it is my favorite time of day! Especially when I have a cup of coffee in my hand.
The air is nice and cool this morning. We have been experiencing rain, wind and some cooler temperatures here in Virginia. I don't mind it so much--that is God's department. Last night when it was getting cooler-we finally lit up my chiminea! It was beautiful! Seth actually roasted marshmellows over a wood fire for the first time in his life that spans ten whole years! He had a blast, and so did his daddy. I cannot believe how many marshmellows they went through! I only had one--way too sweet for me!!
I am finally starting to dejunk my house-hense the reason for me sitting in a cluttered computer room. Now I need to sort and pitch what is here. I have a storage problem with blankets. I absolutely have no place for them. I don't want to put them in the attic. (It takes forever to remove that old attic smell.) So, I am trying to figure out ways to store my blankets and winter comforters. I could use another closet solely for blankets and wheat! (There are a few disadvantages in living in a bungalow-storage being one of them.) Oh well, I will figure it out.
Anyway, I have the bathroom and our bedroom cleaned and dejunked. This is a good start! I only have 6 more rooms to go! It will take some time, but God will be pleased when it is done--not to mention my husband. Seth is just dreading me getting to his room. He knows he is losing some of his clutter, and he is a pack rat of the worst kind. I have really let things go, but with the LORD's help and with right priorities--things will be righted soon.
My Donnie wants to give me a nice load of dirt, as a matter of fact, I stayed home all day yesterday waiting for this load of sifted topsoil, but alas--no dirt! Donnie has called around and the fees for not be a contractor are a bit steep for our budget. We want to replenish our garden plot and level out some areas, but the cheapest load he could find was for 3.2 tons of needed earth. I really don't need that much dirt! Not to mention pay upwards to $250+! So, I am on hold for my garden once again. He has one more place to contact--that is okay as long as it isn't delivered on Friday! Here I am trying to clean out the dirt in my house, and I can't buy it for my backyard! (Chuckling as I type )
Oh well, I need to get my day started-even if it is going to be a late start. I hope you have a nice day in the LORD. God Bless!!
