Below is my Mosaic Monday entry and My Happy Homemaker entry....Thanks for visiting



A few of my favorite photo's of a few of my favorite things .. crowns (daughter of the King), my kitchen window with tomatoe's from my garden, roses, my white rockers, a lovely photo I borrowed from someone else, my napkins and cowboy hat napkin rings, white roses in my bedroom.
You can visit Mary for more Monday Mosaic's.

The weather in my neck of the woods: Blessedly cool right now but not to last. It will be hot and no hope of rain. pout

One of my simple pleasures: Seeing flowers growing in the bed I just put in outside my kitchen window

On my bedside table: Don't ask (if your curious read my last few HH posts)

On my TV: Cowboy is home laying on loveseat with remote in hand...so that means 2 minutes per station.

On the menu for tonight: I have no idea. Baby sitting all day. I'll have to be thinking about it. Our freezer is getting close to empty.

On my To Do List: We rented a storage building while we re-arrange the furniture and move sewing room to a different room so I will be busy sorting and storing. And then I'll have a new room!

New Recipe I tried last week: Nothing new really but I did try putting things in the crockpot that I normally wouldn't. I love my crockpot.

In my craft basket: Christmas is around the corner. I am doing an embroidery quilt for my grandson. And making felt ornaments for each baby.

Looking forward to: Fall

Homemaking Tip for this week: Sandra and I are thinking washing dishes. My tip is if you have just a few dishes from dinner or lunch. Go ahead and wash and put away. It is easier to put away a few than waiting for full load in the dishwasher and putting away a lot at one time.

Favorite Blog Post of the week (mine or other): I always want to do this and
I figured out I need to write down the link when I find it then loose the piece of paper I wrote it on. Adding to my to do list: Getting organized. But I really loved my Wordfilled Wednesday post. You can see it here.

Favorite photo from last week:

Photo at top of post.

Lesson learned the past few days: Reminded of reinforced. That waiting and having faith in God. That if I trust him and ask him about each step he will be faithful to me as I am faithful to him. I tend to get ahead of God's plans. I need to give him control.

On my Prayer List: All the girls in the halfway house but especially Misty. My family

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:

The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their cry... Psalms 34:15

Your mosaic was very soft and pretty. I love the cowboy hat napkin rings and the horse picture too.
