Confession: I’m forgetting the details of his face. And I don’t plan to look at a picture to remember. I need to forget. I release my heart to you. I’m gonna keep doing it until it sticks. My heart is yours.

Tomorrow, I’m heading to the beach. Then wash both cars and wash hair. Scrub bathroom (if I have strength after the other stuff).

The neighbour came out today and stared down the vehicle. He went from one side of the house to the next. Sigh. It must be lonely. And he truly doesn’t know how to deal with people. Yahweh I pray that he will open his heart to you. Yes it would be a total bonus, his quietness in the neighbourhood. But he needs you. I pray that he becomes willing to accept you, not for show, but for heart. Thank you for providing for him. Thank you for keeping him safe. May your peace reign over his life.

Yahweh I pray that my ideas don’t overshadow us. Rein me in if I go overboard. (I almost said when🤭). But I need to exercise control over my thoughts and emotions. I do tend to be an all or nothing type of person, but that’s an approach to life that needs to change (except when it comes to you). Jumping straight in can (and has) gotten me into problems. Help me to know the seasons and the times. When to jump in and when to ease in.

I just thought about how I’m dressed for bed and had to laugh. All day I’m walking around in shorts and a top. But nightfall? Sweat pants, woolen socks (yes I have woolen socks in the Caribbean, cause sheesh it gets cold), sweater. And I’m under a sheet, coverlet and a blanket. I was thinking of how nice a fire pit would be on the deck, but the place is hot!!  And then remembered how cold the nights get. Soooooo. When I’m working on the roof deck, there will be a fire pit.

TODAY’S THANKFUL TALLY:

  1. Ideas and projects!! Sidebar: downloaded the landscape arch mag today. I missed the info from these mags. I did not miss the pretentiousness. I still believe you can do something for the only reason being that you liked it.
  2. Attendance in the afternoon’s programme was an improvement and folks actually participated.
  3. A quiet neighbour.
  4. Chocolate!! Had a piece of chocolate today. Still have to be disciplined in how I eat.
