Things Will Be a Little Different Today

The week has been rather long to me. I have cleaned, straightened and thrown away everyday, yet when I went to bed Thursday night it seemed I had not done anything productive all week. I made up my mind today would be different. Instead of doing all those things again on Friday, I would do the most necessary things like eat and spend the majority of the day doing whatever my grandchildren want to do. I started the day letting my new chickens out of there cute little cottage. I had some coffee in hand and just admired them until the unsual cool morning temperatures encouraged me to go back inside and write on my blog. It is 6:30 AM and the kids will be arriving in about an hour. What to do today will be up to them. I attended my sweet nieces college graduation party last night. The center tablescape was awesome, food absolutely fantastic and great fellowship with family and friends. So many blessings I can't count them all. It is amazing how one person can make a statement that puts some unsettled thoughts into perspective. This is a good thing in this case. I would tell you who said it, but I will make you wonder who....maybe it was you :). Always be mindful of your words, God may be using you today. Well, I need to finish my coffee and maybe have another before my sweeties arrive...wish us luck today as we just kick back and play. Praying a good day for all, don't forget to take a break for fun. Here is a picture of the awesome, vintage tablescape last night...
