A Dim Sum Day ~ Little Pieces of Heaven

It's a Dim Sum kind of Day

 
Tito (Black) on the left and Leo (White) on the right. These two kitties can be counted on to camp out with me all day long when I am sick. They are my Yin and Yang when I am resting up.
 
 
My youngest gremlin. She is growing up so fast. She has a sweet smile, but a very wild spirit.

Pampered Chef Spring Launch in Santa Clara. Mrs. Church brings it home in her "Demo" as she sings her way to the top. I had a great time with "the girls".
 
 
 
My friend took this awesome picture at Pfeiffer Beach up Highway 1 on the coast of California. She said there was purple sand. I think I will have to visit this place.
 
Thanks for sharing a few lovely things with me this month.

My February Daybook

 
Outside my window...


It looks like it could rain. I wish it would.
I am thinking...
 
Whether I will get any time to myself this evening.
I am thankful...
 
For the trials, still. Praise God for the trials that will teach me and change me into something better.
In the kitchen...
 
The dishes, they need doing. And a chocolate frosted banana cake waiting to be eaten.
I am wearing...
 
A blue top and black swishy pants. Oh and shoes.
I am creating...

The Christmas play for this year. They want a script by May. Since they liked my script in 2013, they asked me for a sequel. Oh boy! I feel kinda stuck though, so I better start praying for direction now.
 
I am going...
 
To the gym tonight I hope. We have been so bad about it. I hate the idea of paying for a gym membership that we don't use. I am going to go, I am going to go...
I am wondering...
 
What bills need to be paid on my next payday. What the new products coming out for Pampered Chef are (We have our launch this Friday). When I am going to actually wash my car. How to help my family bring in some cash by doing odd jobs. What the diagnosis from my Mom's neurologist appointment will be. If I will ever get through the current books I am reading.
I am reading...
 
Luthiel's Song by Robert Marston Fanney
The Crucified Ones by Charles Newbold

 
I am hoping...
 
For stress reduction and more rain. We need rain so bad here on the Central Coast of California. I say bring on a deluge! Or... showers of blessings, I would take those too.
I am looking forward to...
 
The Pampered Chef Spring Launch this Saturday in Santa Clara, CA. I can't wait to get back together with my team mates, see the new products coming out March 1st and get refreshed to restart my business.
I am learning
 
Patience, every single day with my family. I am also learning that my Mom's health and metal abilities are worse off than I thought.
Around the house...
 
Not much has changed. We still need to clean it. Oh, but we got to replace a broken kitchen faucet this weekend. What an ordeal that was, but after 3 trips to Home Depot we finally got it done.
I am pondering...
 
How my relationship with God is today. How can I submit to His will better and what kinds of exciting changes this can bring into my life.
A favorite quote for today...
 
"I remembered all of these things, and I decided to instead write about the most urgent threat to the sanctity of marriage. Divorce." Matt Walsh
One of my favorite things...
 
HOT sugar cookies, right out of the oven! I am drooling just thinking about it.
A few plans for the rest of the week:
 
Gym tonight, church Wed. night, gym again Thurs. night and heading out to San Jose Friday night. Then... Pampered Chef Spring Launch on Saturday! Church on Sunday and a 94th birthday party Sunday night!
A peek into my day...

Work... nothing exciting.
