FOR TODAY
Outside my window.. . It is dark after 9.00pm, but I imagine it is cloudy as it has rained a few times today. Although it has felt a little cooler at times over the last week or so, it can still be quite warm.

I am thinking... about how the power adapter for my laptop has a problem, and I am back on a PC, and it takes so long to open my friends blogs, I have given up in frustration, so I have really let people down who have commented, as I have not returned the visit. I have a quote for $132 for a new one, but want to see if an electronic friend can do anything with it before I go ahead.
I am thankful for... peaceful times with friends, especially the campfire on the weekend
From the kitchen... I rearranged a cupboard and got rid of an untidy corner. Also we have continued to make our own butter, and then we make pancakes with the buttermilk, a real treat.
I am wearing... nightwear.
I am creating... a fresh living room. We are painting it.
I am going... to just the usual this week.
I am reading... my bible. Apart from my main one I also have an illustrated bible and I am enjoying that one. As we are studying Isaiah I made up a laminated sheet with current territries in the Middle East on one side and Bible Times on the other to save flipping to the backs of our Bibles, particularly as we have a bit of trouble remembering which country is which.
I am hoping ....just the usual things, nothing special.
I am hearing... the TV in the background at the other end of the house, as Barry is preparing a wall for painting and watching a show.
Around the house... The lawn needs mowing as it has been wet again lately, I think we missed the window of opportunity this morning.
One of my favorite things... I have been playing the ukulele more lately, it is my instrument of choice when we go along to the jams in recent times. At the campfire we had a fiddle, several guitars, penny whistle, banjo, mandolin, ukulele lagerphone and clapsticks.
A few plans for the rest of the week..... very quiet week, apart from Bible Study tomorrow, and taking the opportunity to do some cleaning, such as the bistro blinds on the deck.
Here is picture for thought I am sharing... oh dear, I only have old pics on here!! No wonder I can't find what I am looking for. Never mind, I will find a youtube.I was inspired by a new Hymns and Gospel songbook for ukulele that I received in the post this week.

Glad to see you're alright! Your life sounds so content, relaxed and enjoyable. It's fun to clean out a cluttered corner, isn't it. It would great to join in the fun of playing and singing together! Thanks for the video!! Do hope you have a blessed week and good weather as you move into your fall season. We're still waiting for the snow to melt!
Thanks for your encouragement and prayers Jan. Hugs, Karin

Enjoyed your list today, dear Jan. I so
loved cleaning, painting, organizing and]
rearranging in my home. Some think I'm
a bit crazy but I don't mind. =0). Have
fun doing all your usual things that make
a simple life so enjoyable.
It would be great fun to be able to sit
around a campfire with you and just chat.
We'll have lots of time to talk in heaven,
won't we?
Love & Prayers,
Sandy
HI Jan, thank you so much for your visit. As always I enjoy reading about your day. It always sounds so peaceful. I am sorry to hear you've been having trouble with slow loading sites. If it makes you feel any better I have to say that my own site has been loading very slowly for me also and I have extreme high speed internet. Accordingly, I've been deleting various "extras" and may still have to delete more. My computer in general is doing weird things, adding to time to do simple operations. It doesn't seem like something ovbiously wrong but it is a bit annoying for me. I hope you have a wonderful sleep and enjoy your tomorrow. Hugs xx
Jan, how wonderful that you make your own butter. I love that! And I hope you'll post pictures of your new paint job in the living room. I'm working on my study and bedroom, but it's come to a hault due to other work and other life issues. Maybe soon.
Hope is well. The Lord bless you...
XO,
Sheila :-)
That was my favourite hymn when I was at school. Hope you sort your computer probs... I am having trouble with copy and paste at the moment.
A wonderful Sunday school song, I am exhaused from reading all you do, you are so busy..Love home made butter it makes my mouth water...yummy!!!!
You know, you are a real blessing.
Much love Crystal xx
Homemade butter must taste so good! Sitting around a campfire making music with friends must be even better! :)
Thinking of you!!
Oh, Jan...the purple and turquoise are so pretty! I have missed visiting with you....
I've finally found you again. Went through my blog list....glad things are ok and it's the computer that's messed up. I am a bit behind because a trip to the coast and now I'm almost caught up. Loved the utube with boys' choir...all things bright and beautiful. I've not heard that song in a long time. It's not too bright here as the rain has come again and it's chilly. We had a great time at the coast with nice weather for photos. Hope to get all my photos downloaded to computer this weekend! Hugs!
Hey Jan, I'm checking in on you because I haven't seen you blog in a long while. I see from Grandma Becky above that it might be computer problems you're having. I hope it gets sorted soon. Big hugs xx
Thinking of you often and wondering how you are! Trust all is well!
Hello Jan, I am praying all is well with you. Perhaps you are travelling again.. Love Crystal
