(I could not resist putting in this photo,
I find it really funny. Sadly the problem it is
dealing with is real and I know not just a problem here!)
Yesterday I got my hair cut!
Was time and I am glad to have it ready for warmer weather!
I have really thick hair, so thinning and layering is best!
I got to go on some walks this week,
which was really great.
I could not resist getting out the teas I collected in Holland...
I am hoping that my parents can come as planned (DV) this summer
and I plan on having some of the tea then, to celebrate
our special once-in-a-lifetime trip to Holland last fall.
I get really homesick for this special trip at times...
just being with my parents, in the country we are from,
it was so wonderful... I think what I loved most was just
being with them, enjoying food that we bought from the store
and taking walks together...
I am reading this book by Elder Sophrony,
it's slow reading but really good...
I savour the time I can actually just read and take notes.
I really want to get back to writing essays again,
it's been a real challenge as we have had so many other hurdles to deal with...
next up is going to be another trip to NYC for my right eye's problem...
I will probably get another shot in the eye, so I welcome all prayers,
as it is something I hope will be healed without further things needed...
***
Today I hope to get more done on my long list.
It's really a balancing act and I feel already that I am running out of time.
But that is life and I just pray that what I am supposed to do
day by day is accomplished,
by God's mercy!
Hello Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteI have a dog and fines for not scooping "the poop" are high in the UK. dog walkers take potential health risks to others seriously,Aesthetics aside.
My bathroom renovation is nearly complete,but as you say,that is life.Its been trying and expensive.
I sincerely hope your eye behaves and is co operative,it does not sound fun.
I really enjoy seeing your meal tables,such care and attention.
Warm wishes
Ann Marie
