My Blessed Life

For Today: April 22, 2025

Looking out my window...

it's 70 degrees! The warm weather is finally here!

I am hoping...

that we can order our mobile home soon and that it can be built and delivered in less than two months. That would be wonderful.

I am thinking...

about how our new grandson will be born soon! His due date is at the end of May, but Erin has been getting early braxton-hicks contractions, so it could be sooner.

I am thankful...

that Dan is getting better and better, and his lab work looks great! The doctor is hopeful, and we are grateful for him, and to God, who is the great healer.

One of my favorite things...

is being with my kids on holidays. We celebrated Easter with them this past Sunday. Dan, Christian and I went to church at The Bridge, then we hung out with the rest of the family outside, had a fun egg hunt, and we ordered Chinese food.

I am creating...

monthly and weekly spreads in a new happy planner. I stopped bullet journaling at the beginning of this year. I had been doing that for 7 years, and I missed it. Using the Happy Planner I don't need to put much time into it, but I can still have fun with stickers!

I am listening to...

The Plans by We the Kingdom

I am wearing...

a new teal shirt with pink flowers.

I am reading...

a book called Almost Amish: One Woman's Quest for a Slower, Simpler, more Sustainable Life by Nancy Sleeth. I've always been interested in the Amish and simple living, but the book is actually kind of boring, I hope it gets better.

I am watching...

Young Rock a sitcom about Dwayne Johnson's younger years. We just finished the 3rd season and we really enjoyed it.

I am learning...

to be patient while waiting to move to our new home on our own property. It's taking so much longer than we thought it would. I thought we'd settled on the mobile home, but we are going to look at some different models today, and now we might get a double wide instead of the single wide.

In my kitchen...

I'm making egg rolls for the first time.
