With gratitude . . . for the Lord’s smoothing my rough spots in relationships, and teaching me a bit more about myself as I come to understand another person better.  That person is “connected” to all in the family.  I tend to be disconnected.  Another character product from childhood.

In the kitchen . . . chicken in the crockpot to make bbq chicken later today.

I am creating . . . space to do as much as possible on my “big jobs” list this summer.

I am going . . . to be home most of the next few days.  Glory be, loving that thought!

I am looking forward to . . . shopping for strawberry plants and flowers this weekend!
