Late Tuesday

Lots to say. My goodness. And my head is definitely in a better place than 2 days ago.

*God is faithful, even when I'm not. Learning all the time.
*Praying about stuff doesn't always return what you expect. God's ways are often out of the blue.
*Ann Voskamp's book 'A Thousand Gifts' causes me to cry whenever I crack the cover. This could take awhile.
*Listening to this song that oldest daughter found online, and if you stick around to listen to the advertisement afterward, you can hear Sam Elliott. A double treat. Ahem.
*Mom's able to be alone at night now. Yay.
*Holding off turning the heater on as long as possible. Ten people filling up a house is often ample heat, without additional help.
*Got the taxes completed. Phew. And it really didn't hurt at all. The only difficulty is when they're done by someone who's slightly dyslexic (and that would be me). Funny how 3's and 8's look alike, as do 2's and 5's.
*Reading 'Trouble the Water' by Nicole A. Seitz, when I'm not getting all worked up reading the other book.
*Have ordered 'Miss Hargreaves' by Frank Baker, and 'A Homemade Life: Stories and Recipes from my Kitchen Table' by Molly Wizenburg with my free Amazon bucks, earned with Swagbucks.
*Feeling a bit of a spiritual breeze blowing through the house. Taking a deep breath.
