Feeling "lame"
Sometimes I do not enjoy reading other peoples blogs. "Why?" you might ask, well, it is because I end up feeling pretty lame. Then I take a step back and realize that I am just being challenged, and pushed to be better, to strive to be more than I am and move toward who I am meant to be. It isn't always easy or even pleasant. It is interesting how God works on me in bits and pieces.

Well, it is early and quiet around here. I went to bed kind of early last night and "just woke up". I like that, knowing I have had enough sleep and with out aid of an alarm clock waking up when your body is ready to. I am being serenaded by the Mocking Bird this morning - it is nice. I should just go sit outside and enjoy the quiet morning.

I "finished" my wall yesterday. I put stucco on it in a buff color, it is a little lighter than I would have preferred but it looks much better than just the cinder blocks. Debi said it looks good. I think today I might plant some ivy at the base so it can start growing up it - that was the plan all along. I guess if I was staying in this house I would do more things - there are always projects to do and finish, and it feels good to finally complete one.

Here is my blog. It is the thoughts and feelings of an "aging," homeschooling housewife who serves at a local restaurant. I am an average everyday normal kind of person, although my "normalness" becomes less so in today's society. Read on and enjoy or just realize you may not be the only one.
