Just kind of a rambling post today. It's almost 11AM and so far today I've gotten a lot accomplished! Two loads of laundry, mopped the kitchen floor and lightly mopped the wood floor in the front of the house. Dusted furniture in front two rooms. Emptied the dishwasher and cleaned up the kitchen. Brought down some more things from the attic for next weeks garage sale. We had a whole bunch of artwork (I guess it's artwork) that we found at Chris' brothers house after he died.

We weren't sure if any of it was of any value, so we brought it all home. Put it in the attic. I tried researching some of these pieces, but found most aren't really anything valuable. Some even have some price tags on them. Who knows where he got them. Chris' brother was a bit odd and he would find things at second hand stores or garage sales. He would by things at these places, not because he needed them...but, because he thought they were an investment. He thought they were extremely valuable and maybe some things were that he bought. But, most of these pieces are not and many are in really bad shape. So, I dragged them all down and am going to price them all 1.00. For most, the frame is the most usable thing about them. What I don't sell I'll take out to Jasper Junction..or if they are in too bad of shape I will probably just throw them away.

Tomorrow night we will be going to Worship Team practice and something at our church called BUMP. Brushwood United Methodists in Prayer. We went last week. I am not one who has spent much time praying in my life. I have been working on it! Before this began, I kept thinking...how the heck am I going to stay awake praying for 45 minutes. But, you know...it was not hard at all! I spoke to God, I read the Bible a bit and I prayed for anyone and anything that came to my mind. This past week in church, during the prayer and share time I wrote down names and situations involving people. I am going to take that with me tomorrow and read it during the prayer time. Lift of specific individuals and pray for them. That 45 minutes goes by fast. Kind of took me by surprise!!!!
