I'm feeling great today!!! not to mention that today is the first day without a rain storm... AND the roses are all in full bloom!
Just a funny aside - along side the garage for the past 15 years there has been a climbing yellow rose bush... for 15 years all we got was nice greenery... and no roses! This year we started a big tray of morning glories to transplant in that bed... so we decided to pull that particular bush out... low and behold Beautiful Blood Red Old Fashion double roses.... about 20 blooms the first day... What an OMG moment...
Early last year we transplanted a champaign rose from the back of the house to the main bed by the stairs... it did good last year but this year started real slow and looked like we were going to have to replace it... so we bought a miniature yellow rose and set it at the base of the stairs... again low and behold 4 magnificent blooms...
Moral of the stories.... plants are alive.... if they don't produce THREATEN THEM!!! then they grow real nice!!! :)
Finally had a chance to mow the back yard and we got permission to do the new lawns so that will be the project for tomorrow morning before the rain hits...
Master and I had a great chat about something thats been swirling in the back of my mind lately... that of my not being able to be there... my needing to be here for mom and dad in their declining years... Master explained that my service here was more important to him than my being physically there... So last night as part of my "mental" journal I added the following -
1. everything I do is in service to Master
2. one doesn't need to be in physical contact with Master to be of use
3. service isn't only the day to day home things... but the background work that helps things run smooth...
Distance is a friend... not a barrier!
Thank you Master for allowing me the great pleasure of serving you!
