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.

All I could think while I had my hands in the dirt, was, Goddess bless my efforts. Everything I can plant is ‘in’. I haven’t been able to buy new seeds but I planted all of my stash! Seeds dated … Continue reading

Another job hope dashed this morning. I’m not understanding what I’m doing wrong, but it feels like someone punches me every time I go in and am turned down. I’m applying to jobs I never would have even looked at … Continue reading

I’m tired of smiling today

A cold rainy day – 3 in a row. We need the sun. Mood wise, strength wise; we need the sun. The trials are easier when you are warm and fed. Everyone else gets to feel like crap and feel … Continue reading
