SUNDAY BLESSINGS #3

-
GOOD SUNDAY MORNING TO EACH OF MY FRIENDS AND READERS. I think I have finally figured out the widget for this link up party. I will include it at the bottom of the post. I would love for each of you to join me on Sunday mornings to share your blessings.

 The current Co-Vid 19 or Corona Virus has many people in the United States and other countries scared of what is going to happen. Grocery stores are being ransacked of food and supplies and many businesses are closing or limiting hours. We need to remember that God is in control of the situation. We still need to be thankful and share our blessings to encourage others.
I thought this church photo from Pixabay was  a perfect addition to our Sunday Blessings posts so feel free to share it on your post as well. It looks weathered and in the midst of a storm brewing, so our lives may feel at this time. 

My blessings for the week:
 I made an unexpected $50 this week, which truly was a help with bills.
 I survived a trip to the grocery store yesterday and was able to get my father in law most of what he needed. 
We are all well.
The report from the surgeon on my grand doll's legs was good. Things are improving on her left leg. 
My mother in law was discharged from the nursing home where she was and seems to like the new one that we moved her too. 
Vacation is a week from tomorrow and I plan to go unless Alabama is shut down.
Farm life is busy as usual, but the warmer temps and sunshine has helped a lot!

I do have a couple of prayer requests to add to this week's blessing report.

1. Please pray for Summer, the daughter of Linda at lindaslifejournal has been needing extra prayers and we need to send them to her. If you don't pray, at least send her good thoughts.
2.  A dear friend of mine, Karon, as she struggles with cancer. 
Thank you!

I hope the link below works and you can link to my post. If not, please write your own and share my post as well.

      I am so glad! I am learning some new things on here. I need to draw from my computer programming in college, but I don't remember much of it.

    Thank you for requesting prayer for my daughter.....we are hoping to schedule her big surgery soon. She will need to get all the approvals from her insurance and that can take a week to a month or longer. We are so grateful the trial test cut her pain significantly. it's been a long three and a half years.....

    I am sorry that I have not been able to see your picture, even though I have tried a few times. YES, t is so good to always be thankful for what we DO have! I have already been praying for Summer for a long time, and wait to see if this latest surgery will work.

I read this as part of a challenge to read classical books and this month was to reread a classic.

 Good Monday morning ladies, how are you? It is super cold here, but I am thankful for our wood stove and plenty of good heat. I am joining Sandra over at  Diary of a Stay At Home Mom  for the Happy Homemaker Monday link up party. She is so kind to host this weekly and there are many of us bloggers that enjoy this weekly post.  The Weather: Cold, snowy, below zero wind chills and temperatures of a night. I believe our high for the day is to be 7 degrees F. BRR!!!!!! I hate winter when it is like this. I don't mind cold, but I don't like Artic cold. I am not a fan of the ice that occurs when we have temperatures like this.  Right Now, I Am: Sitting at my desk drinking coffee. As I look out the window, I see a bit of snow and maybe a bit of a sunrise. It is about -18 degrees with the windchill and so it looks cold! I am listening to the news that my husband left on when he went out. It is not something I care to do, but I just haven't gotten up yet, to change...
