Quiet Time Bible Study...

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.”

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬-‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬


“Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory,”

‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬ ‭ESV‬‬


“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God,”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭8‬ ‭ESV‬‬

This girl is a MESS!!!

She can get SO comfortable

in such a short time...

This was during our movie last night :-)




Good Morning!!!
Yes, it's early...
I just cannot seem 
to lay in the bed any longer...


I have read ahead in my Daily Bible Reading
and my Devotionals
because I KNOW I won't be able to tomorrow...
I have to be at the hospital at 5,
which means we will leave here around 4...
and I will be running around like a headless chicken
making sure everything is in order
in this house... 
it is amazing how my critters
control so much of my life :-)
I will worry about them 
the whole time I am gone...
even tho I KNOW that Paula 
will take good care of them!



Quiet Time Bible Study...
won't be doing this tomorrow...


Only two trays in my garden right now...
I will get it going again 
next week...


Finished with this one...


Breakfast Time...


Masterpiece...


The pups are patiently waiting for a nibble...



She is chomping at the bit...


Time to head out to the Barnyard...
not quite as cold this morning...










The fish are slowing down...
they are in a sort of stupor when the water is cold...
you can't feed them if the water is below around 50...
I still may give them a nibble in the afternoon
while the temps outside are in the 70's,
but not much...





Paula treated us to Shoney's for a late lunch/early dinner...
that way, I don't have to cook tonight...
just a few snacks, one sleep
and then we will head to the hospital 
early in the morning!!!



We passed the Shetlands...
this little one was napping hard!!!


The newest baby...
so very adorable!!!



So, we will put the Goats in for the night.
Paula will open the gate for them tomorrow morning
when she feeds the pups.
At this point Lanny is planning to come home tomorrow evening
to check on the critters and try to put the Goats in for the night...
I will make sure they have full water buckets, lots of hay
and lots of grain tonight...
they should be fine til we get home
Tuesday...

Tonight we will watch
"Sabrina"...
the newer version with
Harrison Ford...
sweet movie...
both the old one and the new one...

I will try to post something tomorrow evening...
probably not a lot of pictures...
they don't allow taking pics at the hospital...
Say a prayer for me, for the doctor
and for Lanny who will be sitting ALL day
(the patient has it MUCH easier than those waiting...)
and then he will be 
trying to sleep in a hospital chair tomorrow night!!!

Goodnight, God Bless You All

and

Sweet Dreams!!!

Saturday on Walden's Mountain... October 12

Quiet Time Bible Study...

“For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭1‬:‭18‬ ‭ESV‬‬


“But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭2‬:‭9‬ ‭ESV‬‬


“But you, O Lord, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. I cried aloud to the Lord, and he answered me from his holy hill. Selah Salvation belongs to the Lord; your blessing be on your people! Selah”

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭3‬:‭3‬-‭4‬, ‭8‬ ‭ESV‬‬


For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.”

Colossians 1:16-17

Good Saturday Morning...

Sure is starting to feel like fall!


Pups in their usual spot...
except they are under the same blanket...


Max is waiting for his Daddy...


...who slept in just a little...


Still waiting...


He may be giving him the "cold shoulder"...



They made up...


Cutting my last tray of Microgreens...

I will start new trays when I get home 

and settled back into the swing of things...


Rob and Molly love 'em!!


Daddy's Breakfast Time...




Masterpiece!


Last Sparkly Day
until I get home and get it going again...
But there is 1 1/2 gallons in the fridge
which will last Lanny several days...


Out to the cold Barnyard!



Giving them their oatmeal and oyster cracker bribe
so they won't trip me going out to the feed bin!



Then they come running when I throw 
out corn and sunflower seed...


Waiting for release!




Gave them the roots and stems...
always a winner!


Making some Egg Muffins
for next week...
he ate the last one this morning...



Shining and sealing his work boots

with Mink Oil!


Muffins done!


Berries to the Kiddo's...




Had to run down to Tractor Supply
for a couple bales of Timothy Grass
for the Goats...


Saw the baby Shetlands...
Turns out the owner is the man Lanny bought 
the tractor from, so he said we could stop
and talk to them (and pet them, if they let us)
any time we wanted :-)


They grow so fast...
this little one will be big as Mama in no time...


This one was born just a week or two ago
and is already nearly twice as big as he was...
they are so adorable!


Went to the Git-N-Go for
Mama's Old Fasioned Burgers...
YUM!


Won't need supper tonight!!
We brought one home for Paula...
she always watches ballgames on
Saturday, so tonight she won't have to 
find something to eat 
and miss a touchdown or something :-)


Went over and gave the horses a few carrots...
They love 'em!


Max has found his current favorite spot...
several days now,
but it could change tomorrow...


Doesn't it look peaceful and comfortable out there?



Gave the critters the large tray of lettuce...
They love it too...
expecially Baby!





No supper tonight since we ate such a HUGE burger for lunch...
Came out with a few treats to sit with the critters
for a little while...
I think I was mugged :-)



It's just oyster crackers,
but the LOVE them... 
so do the hens!
easy, and inexpensive little treat...






Barnyard is buttoned up for the evening..
had to come in and take my second sterile shower :-)
getting ready for surgery...
only one more day!!!

We will watch
"The Sentinel"
with Michael Douglas...
one of our favorites!!

Goodnight Family and Friends...

God Bless You All and Sweet Dreams!

Pray for our Country!
