Getting’ some sun in our neck of the woods, still a bit chilly, but can’t have everything this time of year.
Busy time for Carla and the ladies at Joanne’s getting ready for inventory; so lots of hours on the floor for all.
Depending on the weather, Josh is planning on rototilling Carla’s garden tomorrow.  She is happy about that, she will get to play in the dirt for real soon.
Transplanting the tomatoes and peppers into the yogurt containers where they will continue to grow for another week or two and then the half milk cartons ready to give away.  “Only” did a couple hundred tomatoes this year.

Reference Prayer:  “The Quakers had many fine ideas about life, and there is a story from them that illustrates the point I am trying to make. It concerns a conversation between Samuel Taylor Coleridge and a Quaker woman he had met. Maybe Coleridge was boasting a bit, but he told the woman how he had arranged the use of time so he would have no wasted hours. He said he memorized Greek while dressing and during breakfast. He went on with his list of other mental activities—making notes, reading, writing, formulating thoughts and ideas—until bedtime.
The Quaker listened unimpressed. When Coleridge was finished with his explanation, she asked him a simple, searching question: "My friend, when dost thee think?"  AW Tozier
Psalm 119:130-131   “The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
131 I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments.”  KJV
As we sit down with our busy schedule, let us make sure that we schedule a daily sit down with God.
We need time to be with Him, to listen to Him and to think about what He is saying to us through His Word and as we pray.
