Years ago, when I started my blog, I would post "Misc. Musings" periodically. It's not anything specific - just some miscellaneous things.
-- I realize I've posted recipe posts over the past few months with photos but no recipes. Oops! I was trying to do a recipe post a few times a month so I would take a photo and put it in the blog post and then forgot to come back and add the recipe. I'll try to do better. HA!
-- I realize that I haven't done updated posts on my Joyful class this year. No reason outside of taking time to add photos and links for our activities. I hope to do one post soon with all of the info from our semester.
--After a very hot and humid summer . .. and spring . .. and fall . . .I am enjoying a much cooler forecast and, yes, I have also enjoyed the rain and thunder storms we have had this past week. The "grumpy" skies with the breakthrough of sun are just amazing this time of year. There is not any haze in the air from humidity so the blues are super crisps and the grays are low hanging and deep. I AM thankful that all of the precipitation we received was in the form of rain; I am not really for a snow storm yet :-)
--Last week my computer got "hi jacked" by some website; it was screaming at me; I was not happy at all. Josh ran some security check and took care of it for me but it still took me 3 days to even try to log back in or go online. Thankfully everything seems to be fine and working like it should.
--I'm pretty happy with what I've been accomplishing with my goals. Granted the last two weeks have been super busy so I had to put my "schedule" aside and instead just take care of the day to day things. I'm looking forward to things really slowing down with the next week. Weekends seem to be busy (or my kids are busy HA!) but the weekdays are not. School, School, and more School needs to happen during the day!
-- Saying that I have a 17 year old now is weird. It seems so different than 16. He's an awesome 17 year old, though, and I'm thankful he is ours.
-- Nate will be testing for his 2nd Don (Black Belt) in December. I've really enjoyed seeing him improve by leaps and bounds this past year. The Grand Master (the highest TKD instructor in his type of TKD) has taken in interest in him which is great. He would like to train Nate which is quite the compliment.
-- I have started a prayer journal recently. I haven't done that since it was required in a class for college. I wanted to challenge myself to write down the things I say I will pray for as well as my own requests and then also write down the answers so I can look back after a year and really see what God has done. Is it perfect? No. Do I always remember to write things down? No. So I'm also working on not being a perfectionist with it too.
--For now, I think that's all of my misc. musings. :-)
