blessings big and small

It’s a lovely morning. Feels like fall’s coolness is really here. I don’t want to think about anything serious. lol I’ve decided to string beads for the fae and hang them in the tree this morning! I made some prayer ties on the newmoon to express my needs and thank yous. It feels heartening to walk out and see them – a physical reminder of blessings received.

We sold a few items on eBay and I’ve gotten everything ready to mail off this morning. G made enough to buy his game. He keeps trying to squeeze out an extra penny or two for a 99 cent auction and I won’t let him have it. lol Postage overage belongs to me for boxes and envelopes. I’m such a mean mommy. He says “no you’re not!” lol I love that boy!

I have one arm warmer made and need to finish the second sometime tomorrow, I can start the purple shawl my friend purchased the day after. Then it will be onto the next project!

I think we’ll be having some beautiful salad greens by the weekend. Not large amounts, but I’m so looking forward to them. The collards are about 6″ high. The spinach is 2″. Temps will plunge to the 40’s this weekend. So the growth will slow. I’m just glad we got them in in time for their beginning needs!

OK – it’s time to start this day. Hi-ho-hi-ho it’s off to knit I go! ;0)

About Morning Knits

I believe in and practice positive living. I love YARN, cooking, music, bird watching, herbs, and gardening. I am passionate about YHWH the Elohim of all the earth. I believe it's our responsibility to tend that earth. I basically do my thing in a quiet, amused way. I believe in laughter, and the power of combined prayer. I am a true homebody. I have 6 kids, all home-born and successfully breastfed. They are all grown. I'm the oldest of 9, daughter of a missionary mother who lives in Kenya, and I have a spoiled service dog and 2 rescued cats. Right now, there is balance after yrs of unemployment. My disability was approved due to degenerative discs, fibromyalgia, and obesity. That last is hard to say. I believe we owe it to ourselves to protect our mental health. It's precious and the one thing we can control. I would rather not do my own housework and I talk too much. I bought a house in North Carolina which I ended up leaving for my husband to sell. I'm a two-time caregiver. My husband and I are separated due to stroke complications and personality difficulties. I am in Texas now. The one place on earth I said I'd never go unless Yah moved me there and HERE I AM! G and I are sharing a small apartment and so far, things are going well.
