Jus' Checkin' In....

Howdy Ya’ll,

How ya’ll did was? Doin’ purty good here on this end.

I had a decent day and got some things done around here that I needed to get done. I finished the little wash room that I made for me Queen and the trim is ready to paint, then on to another project. (My garden.)

I tilled up the stuff that is done bearing and am looking forward to planting some more things on Monday. We bought some plants today and they sure look good and strong. We have never had a Fall garden so this will be a new experience. The ground that had been tilled before sure broke up good and is almost like a powder. The other that hasn’t been tilled is still a little clumpy and not as fine.

On a different note it is a holiday weekend and I hope everybody enjoys the extra day off on Monday, but BE SAFE!! We don’t need nobody getting any kind of thingamajig or doomaflijjie hurt or busted. Don’t drink too much tea or lemon aide or you might get a little waterlogged and then you won’t be able to eat any of that good ole BBQ.

Anyway, long enough for gabbin’ and wastin’ your time, I reckon I’ll sign off, but afore I go just remember: Getting an idea should be like sitting on a pin: it should make you jump up and do something!

Ya’ll be good,
Poppi

I'm So Thankful for...

Howdy ya'll,

Can you believe it? I am finally updating this thingamadoochi!!!!!!!! Yep, that's right I am!!!

There ain't a whole lot going on here 'cept some of this and some of that, but I am staying busy.
The garden is doing great and I am able to share some of the produce with others and for that I am thankful. I enjoy sharing what God has allowed me to have whether it is produce or the gospel. The 'maters are starting to come in so hopefully I will be able to share some of those with you. They make awesome sammiches and drip wonderfully down your arms since they are so juicy.

I am looking forward to Campmeeting this year and especially so since it will be my spiritual birthday time also. I don't think that I have looked forward to Campmeeting like I am this year since I was a young teenager. The Lord has blessed me so much this past year and for that I also am thankful. I still have a good job although I don't have the shift that I want yet, but the Lord will provide and for that I am thankful.
I also have a good congregation of saints that I can worship with and a Pastor that is true to my soul and for that I am thankful. I don't have to wade through man's interpretation on the scriptures but can take the counsel that God gives through my pastor, whether over the pulpit or personal counseling, and know that the man of God has a concern for my soul and not just keeping the numbers up and for that I also am thankful.


There is so many other things that I am thankful for, but I won't take time for them all since you don't have all day to sit here and read it. There's work to be done, right? Make hay while the sun shines. (Just don't get too hot!)

Ya'll be good,
Poppi
