Working It, Strong and Courageous

Making my way through life to be trained in thought, words and deeds consumes much of my time and energy.  I love to read God's word and dwell on the thoughts of beauty, happiness, joy, blessings and all around strength in Jesus name. My favorite verse to remind myself over and over each day is that I am clothed with strength and dignity.

AMP Proverbs 31:25 says,Strength and dignity are her clothing and her position is strong and secure; she rejoices over the future. 

Yes I want to be a Proverbs 31 woman.

But not religion, just the outflow of the Spirit to which comes forth effortlessly because of the time I spend with God.

My list of needed accomplishments at home right now are yard work, mowing and bush trimming as well as painting the outside of our home with a brush and roller.  

Overgrown bushes ia very hard work;
over and over to get it even.

I really didn't see myself
doing this overgrown job.

Wow, I did it

Jeff, I love you so very much.
Thank You

Much energy and strength
Jeff can do anything. Tearing
off more wood panels.

A few days after my husband put the wood up,
I started to prime it but noticed it had
already started to mold.

Jeff took care of that with a pressure washer.  However, as a motivated and strong worker as he is, he pressure washed the entire house.


Wow, this thrust us into a serious and fabulous make over for our home.

This is just the beginning.
It is hot so I have a wet towel
on my head.  It really helped.

We are working together to get this work done.  It is very
rewarding to know how blessed we truly are as a family.
Here are a couple more hedges that we keep up with.

As for my creativity, I rearranged my pottery studio just before all this work began.
