- At my job this week: We had Professional Development in the morning and classes with our students in the afternoon. I have thoroughly enjoyed the time with my coworkers and the workshops have been fairly interesting.
- Places I went: Greg and I took several evening motorcycle rides because the weather has been so nice. Tonight, we took it to the car wash and washed and shined the ole girl.
- My favorite thing: I won two door prizes during our teachers meetings. One was a gift card to Subway, which I wasted no time in using, and the other was a bag with a jump drive, pens and a note pad.
- I'm reading: Alexandra Stoddards "Living a Beautiful Life"
- Link: http://www.alexandrastoddard.com/
- I saw: One of my chickens found a big fat grub worm. The others came over and were trying to get it from her. Just like a bunch of kids.
- I cooked: A big pot of vegetable beef soup and Greg had at least three bowls. When he finished he told me he was sloshing.
- Grateful for: Jesus who loves me and is always looking out for me and knows what is best.
About Me and My Blog
I am a Christian wife, mother, grandmother, teacher, friend and who ever else I am. I have been married for thirty-one years to my best friend, Greg. We live in a small town in East Texas. I am the FCS County Extension Agent. I enjoy sewing, camping, gardening, spending time with family, traveling, riding with Greg on his motorcycle. I am learning about beekeeping, soapmaking, rainwater catchment and other farmish type activities.
The name of my blog comes from a sermon I heard once about a time when Paul had been arrested and was being taken to Rome as a prisoner. The ship, on which he traveled found safe harbor, for the winter, at a place called Fairhaven. The captain of the ship wasn't content with staying so he set sail again and later was ship wrecked. I apply this to my life in that I want to be content with where God has me and what he has for me. If I am not I may end up like the ship that carried Paul, shipwrecked.
