It looks like this going to be a slow launch...

...But hey, we acquired a new camera! Now I have to learn how to use it and download pictures etc.
Last week I painted my living room floor - sage - soon we will get a large area rug . Let me tell you the paint is a big improvement. Since I tore out the old carpeting a few years ago It had been just plain white painted but much worn plywood.
We have many projects planned for our little house. We've had others in progress for far too long and OH how I must have Philippians 4:11-13 INVADE my mind: ..." For I have learned how to get along whether I have much or little. I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything with the help of Christ who gives me the strength I need." (NLT)
  I want to learn to live contentedly and graciously when projects go on hold for too long. I also have to learn how to manage our stuff (especially our kids stuff ,"I know how to live... with everything"or too much stuff). Of course, I know a big part of this is exercising parental authority and being a gracious -praying wife.
 Time to get out to the clothes line!
