I am feeling accomplished. I mowed the yard- front and back. Then I swept the house and mopped the entire first floor and now it's time to clean the bathrooms. A nice and tidy house makes the husband happy and makes for a more pleasant weekend. Even so I usually end up doing something the wrong way or it's not clean enough or decorated/arranged the right way. It makes me fustrated sometimes. But it can't be helped. That's the way things are. I have to keep telling myself I am working for the Lord and not man. And I know for a fact that I did a good job and that the Lord is pleased. But still it makes it hard when I hear negative comments. The house is never a complete disaster. And at times I feel like I failed as a housewife. Just trying to work out a balance between things. Somedays are better than others.
Our House
Our Impatients are still looking healthy even though the weather has turned colder.
Our Marigolds and lemon yellow snap dragons have taken off like crazy this year.
Our roses we planted on Mother's day in honor of our mothers are still blooming.

Another thing... since when did not telling the truth become easier than telling the truth? It is disheartening how a lot of people these days are so quick to to make up something instead of giving a straighforward honest answer. The lines are being so blurred. Truth is always better than non truth. Be responsible for your own actions and what you say own them and above all let us be a people of truth. After all as Christians we are people of the TRUTH so act like it.
