Using what we have.

Well I did tell you all that I liked gardening. At my house I have a blackberry bush my father gave me before he passed away and it has been 12 years now and it has grown and grown, Charlie and I picked about 4 to 5 qts yesterday and I made some BB jelly. Got 6 ,1/2 pint jars out of the first batch and have enough juice for the second. I really like doing things like that, They have been plentiful even without the rain. We need more rain now. The good Lord knows best. They are some what tart,and need alot of sugar. The Lord blessed me with them so I have to make use of them, Charlie likes waffles and he says I should make some syrup too. we will see I may surprise him. Thats a good thing , don't you think?

I have made 4 tote bags so far and they are cute, if I do say so myself. I will try and learn to post a picture on here, but I don't know how just yet. Today I was at another Blog and the study of Ruth was being taught. I love that book in the Bible and I read along with it, so nice to do.

I went to Sight and Sound Theater in Lancaster Pa. and saw the production on the stage. I have only on thing to say for those shows, Wonderful. If you ever get the chance to go, please do. you will be hooked on them, and you will want ot go back.

well I guess I'll close for now and do some more sewing . Would appreciate you comments. Love and big hugs, Juanita

Its amazing How God answers prayer

We have been having some very dry weather and we needed rain really bad, But I knew the Lord knew best and would give us the rain in due time, His, Not ours. well Prayers were answered to day. Thank You Lord, It is so refreshing to be able to go the Gos with our needs and Know that he listens and cares for us so much,

I have been doing some sewing and wanted to do something worth while to help out with our finances alittle, I have been making some tote bags for the grocery store shopping and not use those plastic bags. trying to gradually go green. Well today I made my first one. My best friend Anna , we have been friends for so long and we love each other like sisters, she is always there for me, I thank God for her, Any way she wants me to make her some, so I think the first one will be hers. Hope she likes it, It is real pretty and I will make me one also.

I hope some one will come back to me on my Blog, I am new to this , not growing up with computers and all. It was funny I opened my Blog and then I couldn't find it , I had to adk the farm sisters on MJF how to find it. I really felt so dumb. The girls there are so nice, they help out in so many ways. I hope I can post often. I love to hear from the great ladies here. Love you all Hugs, Juanita
