Sunday Blessings #4

-
Good Sunday Morning to each of you! In this time of uncertainty that many of us are now facing due to Corona Virus or CO-VID 19, we need posts like this to remind us that there are things to be thankful for and that we are blessed more than we can imagine.

Are you well? Do you have food on your table? Are you loved by someone? If so, you are blessed? The small things can mean a lot at this time. I am recommending that we all do something kind for someone else this week. It might be a card, a phone call, check on an elderly neighbor, leave a thank you note for your mail carrier, etc. Just be kind and thoughtful!

Onto my blessings!

I am thankful this week that I live on a farm and that I have food and shelter to bless us during this time of uncertainty. I have been blessed this week by a dear blogger, Linda, who was kind enough to send a game that she played with her grandchildren to my grand doll and I. Thank you so very much! Your kindness is contagious!!

I have been able to spend time with my daughter this week, although it means that she has been laid off and that is not good with her being a single parent. I am blessed that she is fully aware that times are tough for everyone at the moment and she is not asking for help right now. She seems to believe her time off will be short lived, but I am worried that it is going to be much longer than we ever expected.

I hope you will share in this meme and write your own blessings for the week and then link up here.

      Yes, it has been nice to have a well stocked pantry and freezer at this time.

    Glad you are doing well. We are in the thick of things in NYC, but personally I am more than okay. Well stocked and able to cook and I am surrounded with support. I have younger neighbors that have picked up things I wanted. Our synagogue does twice daily prayer services via Zoom that's been great and my Weight Watchers group is also doing Zoom, so I get to connect with friends on a regular basis. Take good care!

      Zoom can be a real blessing at this time in our lives. I am glad you are well and have people that care for you.

    Good to know you are well. I wish our weather was warmer so I could start my garden. Still I spend time outside just to get away from the constant virus news.


    Hugs Diane

    Carol, I was so surprised and grateful to see your comment on my blog recently. I had been away from blogging for so long that I didn't think any of my "old" (none of us are old! ha!) blogging friends would still be around. You warmed my heart with your words - thank you so much! :)

 As I was looking through my posts today, I see that I have failed my readers. Many of you were aware that my other daughter was pregnant and going to deliver in July, I am sure those of you that knew are wondering why I never posted about that and I must say that life has just gotten in the way, and I thought that I had written a post. Since I know I did not, I will now! He came when Mamaw was out of town! Can you believe that? He actually had the nerve to do something so ridiculous as to come while I was at the Pink Zebra reunion (our annual conference). I was with four of my best friends when we got the announcement that he was here! I was so happy that I was able to share that news with them before anyone else. Of course, the leaders of the company were there and anxious to hear how she was doing as well.  Deliver went fairly smooth, but she was in labor for quite a while. I am not sure on hours, but I think about 6 hours. There were some issues with my daughter following delivery

Something is Falling From The Sky

 Yesterday and today have been very cool days here on the farm and I must say that something that we don't recognize has been falling from the sky. It is wet and seems to be hanging around. IT is certainly what the ground needed as it seems to have soaked it up almost immediately. Rain, glorious rain!! The ducks are loving their pool and the rain, but I truly don't think that they are liking the cooler temperatures so much. I know I am not. I don't mind cool, but wearing my sweatshirt in June is not fun.  The white turkeys are enjoying the coop that my husband put together for them. We have 5 of them and two others. We won't be keeping all of the toms as we have too many.  Nesting boxes made of milk crates that we had lying around work well attached to the back wall.  Here is Tom. He is such a great boy, but he likes to show off. He gets along well with the chickens.  These are my Old English chickens. I like them as they are small and will never get much bigger. I actu

Happy Homemaker Monday - 1/8/24

 Hello! Welcome to my first Happy Homemaker Monday post for 2024. I am happy to join Sandra at  Diary of A Stay At Home Mom  to participate in this series. How has everyone's Monday morning been so far? Mine is slow as most Mondays, but I will be busy later. I really need to work on my direct sales business and get my inventory done for the year. Taxes will be soon and I need that information.  The Weather: The weather is predicted to be a little unsettled this week with periods of rain and snow throughout the week. Daytime highs in the 30's and 40's, which is a bit above average with lows in the upper 20's and lower 30's. Not too bad for this time of the year. I hate the rain as it just makes the farm a muddy, sloppy mess.  Right Now I Am: Sitting at my desk listening to the news and writing this post. My daughter just came over for coffee and to chat a bit.  Thinking and Pondering: What I will get accomplished this week and where I want to start for chores. I am t
