I'm trying to learn how to blog more effectively...eventually with the hope of earning a little cash. One site I like to follow is called the Heavenly Homemakers. Here's the learning part...trying to post a link here so you can go see her site. Heavenly Homemaker's is a site that encourages teaching God's word and talks a lot about eating healthy food.
WHOO HOO...Proud of me...I think it worked! Another site I like...which really makes me laugh...is my friend Kristi Price's site...she is hysterical!
Laughter is the best medicine...right? So with a few laughs from Kristi and a few food/cooking tips from Laura maybe good health is just around the corner.

Lists, Focus and Energy
Some days I feels on top of the world. There is no way I'm not going to accomplish the 101 things on my list. And some days I can't even remember what a list is.
Today was one of those latter days. I woke up knowing I had several things to do but could not focus on what they were. I looked around and saw 4 or 5 hours of housework just waiting on me. Then one of the kids called and threw us all off track. Instead of lunch at 12:00...she needed lunch at 11:00. O.K. So much for cooking that pork roast.
Then later in the day (house work still pending) a friend calls and wants to bring a friend to see our house. It's for sale...almost a year now. No way will we turn down that opportunity. And they'll be here in an hour. YIKES
I have never cleaned and staged this house as fast as was done this afternoon! And thank goodness for lightly filled drawers (which are now stuffed full!) and empty tubs of seasonal clothes (yep...stuffed full too!). Did you know you can stuff dirty clothes, previously laying on the laundry room floor, in the washer, dryer and even the dishwasher? Yep...it can be done!
So tomorrow I'll have one of those 101 things to do lists. Now if I can only have one of the top of the world days instead of the lack of focus days...and can remember what got stuffed where!
Lord bless me tomorrow with Your love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness faithfulness, self control...and if I may? Focus and energy. In His precious name...
