5 Things

Thank you Lord for

• Speaking to me through the words of long dead men
• Freezers, without which I could not have perfectly ripe peaches during the rain
• Your grace, that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ
• Creativity
• Seasons- Each that has its own beauty, and so I know that when the rain comes it waters the grass for a more beautiful of spring and summer

Peaches

Peaches are sliced and frozen! I have been enjoying one of my last nights off, looking over my home decor blogroll. GoogleReader is a great tool to be able to follow several blogs at once. The pictures inspire me, and just plain make me happy :')

Biking for Breakfasts

I rode my bike around town for the first time today! I went and got some lovely peaches, and a refill of steel-cut oats for breakfasts. The fragrantly ripe peaches will be cut in slices and frozen for use at my leisure. How exciting! The bike was an adventure too... The breaks don't work so hot, but (though this may mean it's not the best bike for daily riding) it will be nice to have to make my travels to the bus stops faster!

Blackberries

I picked blackberries today, in the yard. Blackberries make me so happy because- though no-one plants them or tends them,  they grow plentifully and delight me with their sweet and delicious free gifts!

6 Things

Thank You Lord for

• Free bus fare- all the way to Jim and Dixies! (More to come?)
• New glasses- no more wearing my sunglasses all the time!
• Discovering that my contacts aren't all that bad- options!
• A clean room, and window
• Funding for College
• A long and lovely talk with Abbey

I am very blessed!
