Top Pic Tuesday

If God can create such stunning beauty that lasts for a second, then isn't laughable that I worry about my problems. I love taking photos of flowers. They are absolutely gorgeous but don't last long at all. (Especially if I am taking care of the plant since I do not have a green thumb.) I am very thankful to God for taking care of my needs, even when I don't realize he is at work (which is probably most of the time.) Please remember, if you would like to borrow these photos, you can but link back to me. If you would like a hard copy, I would love to get it printed for you and sent out, free of charge. I love to share.

Please stay tuned for Weight Loss Wednesday.

I'm linking up with Melissa at The Life of A Not So Ordinary Wife.

Top pick Tuesday

This is one of my top photos and it turned out to make great post cards.

Dear bloggy friends, If you like any of my photos please let me know which one. I will be happy to send you a hard copy. If you would like to post my photos on your blog, I will happily share. We all love beautiful things and that's why we spend time decorating our homes and dressing in cute outfits. Surrounding ourselves in beauty is a way of creating calm in a stressful world. I believe beauty should be shared. I also think I have some awesome photos. It would be an honor if you agreed with me. 

What is your top pick for Tuesday? Thanks for sharing with me.

Change is a slow process

Change is a slow and steady process, akin to the speed of a walking turtle. Change is slow and steady.

I keep hoping and expecting that suddenly things will change. Suddenly getting things done will be easy. Doing what I want to do instead of have to do can be a new reality. We are not there yet. Everyday I have a little hope that things will change. Its a very small tiny amount of hope. Sadly, I don't have enough hope to share. I go through rough patches where I can't even see the little hope that is there. The pressure of life gets to be too heavy.

Dear Lord, I am where I am supposed to be. Can you please make life a little easier? I need Your blessing to get a better paying job. On my own, nothing can be accomplished. Please help. Amen.

Treats

Scones can be really good, especially fresh from the oven. Scones can also be very dry and crumbly. Generally, scones are yummy but the best scones are Buttermilk Scones. I picked up the recipe from my mom and I'm not sure where she got it from. If you are interested in trying the best, melt in your mouth, scones please give me your email address and I'll be happy to share. Its important to share tasty treats with each other.

The last time I made this recipe, I cut the scones into 16ths. They were too skinny and fell over but you can't tell in the photo!

Inner piece

From time to time, Good Clean Funnies has given me a smile or a laugh. Today, it was a smile and it deserved to be shared. Please enjoy! Inner peace.

Big Plans

It was a big deal getting through a full week of the new job after completing training. I’ve got big plans to do it again. I’m back on the “diet bandwagon” and “running bandwagon” as well. My plan is to focus on my diet to be healthier and lose some weight.

Do you have any big plans for this week, month, or year? Share your thoughts on how you complete your goals!
