Day 28- 1 pm







Saturday, at 1pm,  Dennis and I were at a Safety meeting. It is a requirement to work as a volunteer on building projects for Jehovah's Witnesses. There was a video and this booklet outlining safety rules so as to not get hurt on construction site. Now, we qualify to be a volunteer on our new Kingdom Hall that is being built. Hooray!

Day 24- Something I am Grateful For

I am very grateful for a home to raise my children in. Yes, a roof that doesn't leak, clothes and food. To able to provide these things for my children with dignity, I am most grateful. Of course, All credit goes to our Creator, Jehovah for these provisions.

Day 23- Vegetable

 SPINACH

I  have been using spinach alot lately. 
So much you can do with Spinach!
I can make a very nice fresh salad,
or I can steam it with garlic and add a touch of apple cider vinegar
But today, I will make a smoothie with my spinach. 
Using the little tiny orange limes from my tree, cashews, ginger, and an apple. 

The good: This food is low in Saturated Fat, and very low in Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Niacin and Zinc, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Protein, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E (Alpha Tocopherol), Vitamin K, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Copper and Manganese.

The bad: This food is high in Sodium.

Day 16- Flower


When we first moved to California,
I was intrigued by this flower that grows everywhere.
The bottom of the petals are dark purple.




The petal tops are pure white
With dark purple centers and tiny dots of yellow

African Daisies!

Day 15- Sunset


Sunset at Tamarack Beach
in Carlsbad CA.

Day 14 -How I Feel Today.


It is cloudy, rained the night before.
I get a little sad from this kind of weather.
I dragged my achy body out of bed,
Helped Dennis get up and out the door,
off to the Long Beach races!

Then I dress and head out to our preaching assignment,
We were talking to our neighbors about where to find truth.
Highlighting Jesus words at John 17:17.

It was very cold, but the company I was with was warm.
The families we talked to were friendly and welcoming.
I came home cold, but very satisfied.

My little apartment was quiet and comfy,
I took a nap and woke up refreshed.
Enjoying the quiet as I wait,
for Den to come home with stories of his racy day.

So this Day started cold and sad
but ended warm and Happy.
