THANKful For Today

Colossians 3:17 King James Version (KJV)

17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Made it to the grocery store late Sunday afternoon to enter SAMs busy like a ZOO.  Still they were well stocked and I purchased pies plus a few other goodies to help me out this week with the menus.  Starbucks was in order for the drive HOME and to get rived up to clean the inside of the fridge making room for this weeks progress.  HUBBY came with me for a much needed break away from the painting.  

King James Bible Psalm 150:6
Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

But first as Hubby was pushing a grocery cart to our car...a turn made the carton of organic eggs in a clear container go flying onto the pavement.  The majority of these beautiful brown eggs broke exposing the golden yokes inside.  These raw eggs did not cook on the pavement as it was icy cold outside.  ha.  A nice Sams worker that was pushing shopping carts back inside told Hubby that he could take the carton with broken eggs exchange for good eggs.  We loaded our two carts into the auto.  Two shopping carts full of goodness.  I haven't shopped SAMs like this since last THANKSGIVING.  It's been a while.

Psalm 107:1 King James Version (KJV)

107 O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Oops then it happened...as he was loading the carton of root beer the carton fell a part and out jumps a can bouncing off the pavement and rolling downhill which caused a pin hole to spray carbonated root beer as it sailed away.  Okay that's organic eggs and a root beer accident.  Oh the battle wounds of shopping at a ZOO with an extra tired Husband.  I know his muscles are tired from all of the painting, shuffling furniture, climbing up and down a ladder at HOME.  This has been a long ordeal.

Psalm 69:30-34 King James Version (KJV)

30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

31 This also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

32 The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.

33 For the Lord heareth the poor, and despiseth not his prisoners.

34 Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.

I drove Husband to the front door so he could exchange the eggs and then parked over at the loading zone to wait.  He was gone a good 15 minutes as he had to go through the steps to replace the eggs.  Perhaps the eggs had to be laid by the chickens out back.  No it was just extremely busy.

Psalm 100:4 King James Version (KJV)

4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

Company is coming for THANKSGIVING and I am no where near ready as the house is in an uproar from the painting and the furniture shuffling.  I need to get on a roll and get this HOME back into service.  Exhausted just thinking 'bout it.

Hubby has painted like a machine to get to where we are going.  Calling a truce until after THANKSGIVING.  The Living room looks like humans live here as it is civil once again.  The Dining room hopefully will be presentable late tonight and the Kitchen will reappear tomorrow.


King James Bible 1 Thessalonians 5:18
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Today, I had best wash my hair and curl it to where it air dries.  The Guest room will be ready, but not the hallway as this is where I have placed items that need further attention.  Will have to hide it and deal with it all later.  sigh.  Okay...moving right along.  I didn't get the laundry caught up, but hope to get undies, towels, bed sheets and blue jeans washed today.

SO that's hair washed 'n curled to air dry, Guest room tweaked on, laundry worked on and I think I had better buzz to ALDIs to finish up the grocery shopping.  Then put all away.  That's enough for a busy day.



King James Bible Philippians 4:6
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

I will be ever so THANKFUL when this week has slowed down.  SOMETIMES my LIFE just gets way too busy for being comfortable and I don't do well on adrenaline highs.  Exhaustive.  

I can be THANKFUL that not everyday is so busy.  Thankful.
  
God bless and I hope that you are able to slow your pace some so you can take time to remember the blessings.  Talking to the choir here.

THANKSGIVING,
