Monday on the Mountain... May 18

 Quiet Time in Bible Study...

🌺🌸


“But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear;”

I Peter 3:15 NKJV


“Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.”

John 10:7-11 NKJV


“A wrathful man stirs up strife, But he who is slow to anger allays contention. The way of the lazy man is like a hedge of thorns, But the way of the upright is a highway.”

Proverbs 15:18-19 NKJV


“Do I have any pleasure at all that the wicked should die?” says the Lord God, “and not that he should turn from his ways and live?”

Ezekiel 18:23 NKJV


“with goodwill doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men,”

Ephesians 6:7 NKJV


“My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.”

James 1:2-3 NKJV

Good Morning...

It's Monday...



This fella was standing in the middle
of the parking lot howling at the train
when I opened the Bay Doors...
I told him to go home!


Bible Study Time...
The door is open this morning!!
I love it when we can open the
door for Bible Study...



Murph was dreaming...


Look at those toofers...


Maggie was snoring in my ear...



Interesting info about turtles...
we find a LOT up her on the hill..


Heading out to the Barn...




Duck under the step...
and she did lay an egg :-)


Waiting to come out...




Getting their
Rose Petals and Comfrey...



More beautiful
underwater critters
on my screensaver...



Begging for some
of Daddy's waffle...


And then taking a rest
after their nibbles...


Well, I am learning
a new stitch...
corner to corner...
it is a lovely stitch and I did the increases perfectly,
but having trouble mastering the decreases
so I had to "Frog" ... you know,
"Rip it Rip it"... a couple of times :-)...
I am determined to figure it out...


That big dog had come up this side
checking out the chickens so
I have been keeping an eye on the camera...
the Girls were enjoying the sunshine...
they were calm so I figured
he hadn't been back...


More sea creatures...



It's warmed up a LOT,
so now they are enjoying the shade...
Lanny said the dog is still
wandering around the property...
he was down by the creek...
I feel sorry for him...
I have posted on Facebook
and a couple Missing Pet sites...


Well, I think I've got it...
it is looking square instead of
like a state :-)


Heading out to the Barnyard...
Whew! It's hot!



Under the Goat Ledge...

Tonight we are watching

"Oceans Twelve"...

made in 2004, the sequel to "Eleven"...

Sunday on the Mountain... May 17

 Quiet Time in Bible Study...

😎🍃


“However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; 

and He will tell you things to come.”

John 16:13 NKJV


“Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, Than great treasure with trouble. 

Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, Than a fatted calf with hatred.”

Proverbs 15:16-17 NKJV


“Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, 

that we might be justified by faith.”

Galatians 3:24 NKJV


“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, 

to those who are the called according to His purpose.”

Romans 8:28 NKJV


“But as for me, I trust in You, O Lord; I say, “You are my God.””

Psalms 31:14 NKJV

Rooster Good Morning Photos


We got up at our usual time...

somehow my picture didn't come out...


I usually wake up around 3am...

I could get up right then, 

but try my best to stay in the bed and doze

until 4:30...


It was 60 degrees when

I got up... nice warm start to this day...


Weatherman says it'll be

really hot this afternoon :-)

Bible Study Time with the Pack...




It's a little after 6
and she is giving me
"the look"...
👀

And she makes sure she
lays her head on my leg
so I KNOW she is waiting...


I fed them :-)
And then decanted the Sparkly...


Out to the Barnyard...




A Duck in the corner
of the coop...
exactly where she should be...


Two hens in this box...


One in this one...
these three are ALWAYS
in the boxes but never lay an egg...
and they are really the only
ones in their prime
that SHOULD be laying!!!


Then a Duck under the steps...






Maggie was called in
from her Fence run...
no bunnies this morning...


I think Fiona would
love to head butt Maggie across the yard :-)


Our Breakfast Time...


Changed my Screensaver
to Ocean Life :-)



If I didn't have SO many critters
already I would have a saltwater aquarium
and an Octopus for a pet...
they are very smart, friendly
and interact with their humans...


Gave the Critters
some Sparkly Berries...





For Supper we had
Cabbage, Kielbasa, Carrots, 
Onions,Taters and Celery Soup...


And two kinds of Focaccia Bread...
Green Onion Italian and Cheese...


Dessert Cake and Candy...


Rice and Eggs
just in case :-)


Just the six of us today...
that's my forehead :-)






Busy day...
worn out :-)


Out to the Barnyard...
91! Told you it would be HOT!!!



Seven eggs today...



Chores are done,
inside and out...
ready to call it a day
and get ready for our evening...

Tonight we are watching

"Oceans Eleven"...

George Clooney, Matt Damon, Andy García, 

Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Casey Affleck,
