Good Morning Everyone,
I totally messed up. I've been writing my blog at night, then posting it first thing in the morning. I did something wrong and now it's completely gone. No big deal. I'll just start over. Yesterday, I set out to have a great day. I was going to get out and enjoy the sunshine and that whole ideal choice turned on me, like 5 minutes into our excursion. I ended up bringing everyone right down with me and now one of my sisters isn't talking to me. It's very frustrating. It was not my intention to bring my depression with me at all. That was supposed to stay home like a good little state of mind....but NO. I guess things will get better when I allow them to. That's all there is to it in a nut shell. Eventually I will stop pounding my fist on the floor and allow the Lord to do what He's trying to do with me.
So, I'll try to regale you with my great find yesterday, before things turned badly. I am a collector of sorts. I love all the crazy things they can be made with blown glass, and vases and pitchers and pictures and photography and all sorts of beautiful things. I have pieces from quite a few countries. I'm no where near what I'd like to have but what I do have is very special to me. So yesterday, I'm at this garage sale and I find this Haeger brand pitcher complete with the stickers of authenticity and stamped underneath for only....get this.....50 cents. Can you believe that??? There is a similar pitcher on ebay that has chips on the base for 35.00 so I'm thinking I made a pretty good purchase.
Garage sales have become the bane of my existence. It's like the only thing left that I can do outside. As long as I take it slow. All of my sisters enjoy this too. I can remember when my mother died and I went up to WA to say goodbye and ended up staying with my sister for almost a month. I took her to garage sales and she was hooked on the first try. So now, we all enjoy finding our little treasures.
I really liked what my other blog was, too bad I screwed it all up. It was full of witty sayings and bright and cheerful meanderings of my mind. Instead you got this. Sorry. However, I will leave you with one of my favorite verses out of the Bible. It's printed in red from John 15: 16 "You did not choose Me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain that whatever you ask of the Father in My name, He may give to you."
I guess I have some growing to do in order the bear the fruit that He has in mind for me. I pray that you too are fruitful and that your fruit should remain.....in the meantime, take care of each other and yourself. Love, Patty
