I am tired. This post is actually 2 hours later than it says. I can't figure out how to make the time right for this blog. So when it says 4:31 am, it's really 6:31 am. I do not get up that early.
My morning started out with my weekly Monday morning Bible study with Elaine, Jodie and Cindy. We talked about patience. It seems to be a struggle for all of us. I think the Lord is just shaking His head at all of us. But it is good to get together to pray and encourage each other. I am so thankful to have these ladies in my life. Elaine is in her 60's, Jodie is around 55, Cindy is 50 and I am 42. I have known these girls for 20 years and I am so thankful they took me under their wings and have mentored and been my friends for all these years.
When DH (dearest husband) and I moved in next door to Jodie and her family, we realized we were kindred spirits. Since I got married so early, she was a blessing to have next door.
Anyway, after Bible study, Jodie and I went to find 2 plant stands for each side of my front door. We found 2 downtown Franklin, brought them home and we hope to put ferns in them tomorrow.
Then I had to do a ton of grocery shopping. Publix and Kroger to find everything.
I am having 18 (possibly more) here on Wednesday after my Southern Hills ladies Bible class. We are getting close to ending for the summer and I wanted to do lunch for our special teacher and group.
My menu is: Greek shrimp salad, Chicken club salad, frozen cherry/banana salad, orange bread and double chocolate cherry chewy cookies
Tonight I made 2 loaves of orange bread (orange zest and all), the basil mayonnaise for the chicken club salad, and the frozen banana/cherry salad. I think it is all going to be scrumptious.
I'll finish the rest up tomorrow afternoon and Wednesday early. Somewhere in there I have to clean my house too.
Oh, tomorrow my friends Kimberly, Jeanna and Muffy are taking me for a belated birthday lunch to 'Miss Mable's Tearoom' in Dickson, Tennessee. I have heard wonderful things about it and Kimberly is a doll for getting this together. I'll tell you all about it tomorrow.
So, I am a 'good' tired.
