Evening is drawing nigh now and it has been a full day. Got up early this morning (wish I could have slept in...it was Saturday after all) and took Miya for her walk. Then played fetch with her in the backyard. Put her away right after that and left to go help at the rummage sale at church. Was able to help Christie with a sign, but after that I was no help at all. Ended up leaving about 1pm and met Mike at Abundant Life Church to drop in on their annual church picnic.
The picnic was scaled down a lot from previous years, but still nice and well attended. There was no pig roast but plenty of brats and hot dogs as well as roasted corn-on-the-cob. It was nice to see people, but it wasn't like we had been gone for a long while, even so, I felt like many greetings were perfunctory from both sides.
Though we had two vehicles, we stopped on the way back at Golden Lake to give Miya some play time. How she does love the water!
At our rummage sale, I bought an old Victoria Holt book called "The Secret Woman". I used to like to read Victoria Holt. So, now I'm ready to kick off my shoes, put up my feet and relax with that book. Later it will be wash hair and bake bars for tomorrow time.
Thank you, Lord, for your mercy and grace today.
About Me
- MsMary
- I'm a happily married grandmother of three (two girls and a boy who call me Grammie). I love the Lord and am interested in furthering His kingdom. I full-time tutor a special needs child which I find very rewarding. We were missionaries in Russia for 10 years. So many life lessons were learned there; among them, that studying a foreign language can be fun. I love animals, both domestic and wild. We have a fox red lab named Miya Sabaka (which means My Dog in Russian). We just call her Miya.

Many such beauties have popped up in our yard thanks to birds, squirrels, and the wind.
