all in all
This song's been running through my head lately ~
You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel
Lord, to give up I'd be a fool
You are my all in all
Taking my sin, my cross, my shame
Rising up again I bless Your name
You are my all in all
When I fall down You pick me up
When I am dry You fill my cup
You are my all in all
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel
Lord, to give up I'd be a fool
You are my all in all
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name

Super Nicholas!
Nicholas has been dressing up a lot lately. He especially likes combining super heroes. :) Yesterday he was Anakin (with Jesus in his heart so he won't turn to the dark side). He wants a full-body Batman suit for his birthday ... :)
anyways, just thought I'd share!
Thursday's post
Well, I started this post on Thursday, but I couldn't get the pictures to work. then we had to go to bed early as Jeff had to get up @ 4AM this morning.
Anyways ... so I missed a day of blogging.
Since I have been on bed rest, my hair has been giving me fits. It would wrap around my neck while I slept (something disturbing to wake up with!), and just was a pain to deal with while lying down and not using my stomach muscles (how do you get hair out from under your head without doing something akin to a crunch?). So I decided to chop it off. It was long enough that I could donate my tresses to
Locks of Love. They require at least ten inches of hair.
Wednesday evening, my friend Lori came over and cut my hair. She & Jeff worked it out so I could lay on the couch while she cut it.
Here she has put it into two ponytails and is measuring it.
the first cut is the deepest (?) or is it hardest?
There are my two 10-inch ponytails! We found more hair hiding underneath me a little later, but it wasn't enough to save for anything.
When I get to take a shower again, I will post a new picture of my new "do".
What day is it today?
Time is non-existent for me sometimes. I've been out of the loop as to what day it is for a while!
Today was a pretty good day. Actually, This whole week has been pretty good. I haven't really been bored yet, so that is good, too. :)
The kids have been getting out a lot and Jeff has still been able to work. The boys went to see a free movie ("Charlotte's Web") on Tuesday and went out to lunch with friends. Then today they got to go to another free movie ("The Water Horse"?) with their Aunt Marie and cousin Jacob. They had a lot of fun both times.
Today after lunch, we all hung out in my room and Jonathan read "Rikki Tikki Tavi" to us. I love that story. He did a good job of reading, using different inflections for different characters and such. :)
When Jeff got home from work, I washed my hair! :) Brian & Lori came over and had supper with us. Then Lori chopped off my hair. We are going to send the two ponytails to Locks of Love. :) Now my hair is short and doesn't get in my way anymore. It's so nice. I'll post pictures tomorrow.
Tomorrow is music with Mom in the morning. Then our friend Barbara is coming over for a visit in the afternoon. The kids are going to a farm in the afternoon, too. I hope they have fun.
I'm doing okay. God is good. :) Talk to you tomorrow!
Day 15 of 100 days of blogging; day 8 of bed rest.
random thoughts
Did you know Tom
Selleck is a spokesman for Florida's Natural Orange Juice? Florida's Natural is my favorite o.j. :) Tom
Selleck is one of my very favorite actors. good combo
why is it that certain people who disagree with the things I believe can't accept the fact that we both have the right to our opinion? Tonight on
O'Reilly, there was this guy talking about how an ad in the UK offended gay people. He refused to see that another ad, also aired in the UK, which showed two men kissing, could be offensive to other people.
O'Reilly's word for the day is "foppish". I know what that means because "The Scarlet Pimpernel" is one of my favorite movies. :)
Oh, and Combs is on vacation and Susan
Estridge (most likely spelled wrong) is sitting in. I think they should get rid of Combs & call it the "Sean & Susan Show". It's alliterative. :)
here is a website about general housekeeping, organizing & cooking. I liked it. :) I especially liked the article on "delightful delegation".

slow Sunday
Today was nice. although it seemed to drag on and on. This morning, we woke up and Jeff made breakfast. Then they were off to church. While they were gone, I listened to the news, played some games and then took a little nap (lying on one's side causes you to fall asleep all of a sudden!), After my nap, I finished watching "Pride & Prejudice". Then Jeff called to say they were on their way home. :) After he got home, he fed me (well, he gave me food to eat. I can still feed myself!). Then he set it up so I can see the sanctuary from my computer. That was exciting. A little while later I moved out to the couch and Doug and Marie came and picked up the boys. The boys were very excited to go their cousin's house. Then Kamali and Tina showed up and we watched "Tootsie", that was a good movie in spite of all the interruptions.Now I'm back in bed and I'm reminded again of my verse for the day, John 14:1 -"Do not let your heart be troubled, trust in God; trust also in Me." God keeps reminding me to trust Him and rest in Him. That's all for today.
