Day 195 & 196 - My trumpet vine


While reflecting out on the deck early this morning, I decided to snap some pictures. Thee trumpet vine flowers are starting to bloom and that means the hummingbirds will be out in force soon. I know the vine covers the arch and gate, but I already trimmed in back twice! I think it must be one of the most fertile plants I have! Thank you God.

Still have my sinus headache, not as bad as Monday but it is still there. I know the antibiotic has worked as I do feel better all around.

I had a real busy day yesterday with Anna. We worked in the basement on organizing things. We are nowhere near done. I think I could spend a week down there! We were down there for 4 hours. We did a little "yarden" work, picked up the dogs from the groomers and then picked up all Anna's toys etc. and then Dave picked Anna up. I then took a 2 1/2 hr. nap. I was in the middle of doing something and I just layed on Anna's bed with exhaustion and fell immediately asleep. I have been having those darn panic attacks and my heart races....not sure what that is all about.

Wow....it is Friday already, where does the time go? I wish you all a happy and safe weekend.
Love, Janet

Dear Lord, I thank You for this day,

I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning.

I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God.

You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me.

Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you.

I ask now for Your forgiveness.

Please keep me safe from all danger and harm.

Help me to start this Day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude.

Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.

Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things.

Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over.
And give the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits.

I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart.

Continue to use me to do Your will.

Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others Keep me strong that I may help the weak..

Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others.

I pray for those that are lost and can't find their way.

I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood.

I pray for those who don't know You intimately.

I pray for those that don't believe.
But I thank you that I believe that God changes people and God changes things.

I pray for all my sisters and brothers.

I pray for each and every family member in their households.

I pray for peace, love, and joy in their homes.

I pray that they are out of debt and all their needs are met.

I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God.

Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.
I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees it.
God Bless
You!!!!!

Just repeat this phrase and see how God moves!!
God, I love you and I need you.

Come into my heart, please.

Amen.

Hi Janet,

I hope you don't mind me adding a little comment? I found your blog through tracey a while back, and every now and then I pop across and have a read, the trouble is I get SO caught up in your world, that I forget I have things to do, and then have to rush off before I get chance to leave a comment!
I think your blog is SO inspiring, and a wonderful read, Thank you
