Hello and happy Sunday to you!
Beautiful day here. We're having plenty of sunshine and it is around mid-70's currently at about 2pm.
Hubby 
is working today, something he doesn't usually have to do on Sundays. I miss him being off today.
He and I will probably visit Mom
this afternoon, which we usually do together on Sundays. I usually go by myself during the week when he's working. She is still doing real well, thank the Lord.
I read chapter 26 of Matthew in the Bible this morning. It was about Jesus being betrayed by Judas, one of the disciples. It was also about Jesus praying to our Heavenly Father, knowing that He was about to give His life on the cross, shedding His blood for you and me, so that we can have eternal life through Him.
......................................
Hope you are having a good day. Every day with the Lord IS a good day. Is He your Lord and Saviour? I hope so, cause He sure is mine! If He's not your Lord and Saviour, today is the day of salvation and there is NO TIME like today to get right with our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Believe on Him, repent of your sins and ask His forgiveness. It is that simple. There is NO other way to be saved but through Jesus. He is the way, the truth, and the life and no one goes to the Father but through Him. I believe we are living in the last days and many will wish one day that they had chosen to believe in Him and live for Him while they were here on earth to do so!
Love, Maria

Hello, Friends.
I hope you have been having a good day. We are having beautiful weather here in S.C...sunny and warm. I threw some bread out this morning into the front yard after a squirrel (there are many here as we have a lot of trees which include some oaks) perched itself on the front porch banister looking at me through the dining room window as I sat nearby at the dining room table, studying in the Bible about Jesus coming back to earth in Matthew chapter 13 and what Jesus said is going to happen when He does. ( I love to study about prophecy and Jesus talked in parables a lot of times but would then interpret what they meant and it is all so very interesting as well as true!) Anyway, after I threw out some bread and went back into the dining room, I looked out the window and saw a squirrel sitting under the camellia bush, eating some bread. We also have bluejays here and they like to come down out of the trees to get some breakfast with the cute little squirrels when we throw out bread for them.
...................................
I got groceries today...interesting trip. Canned goods were buy one, get one free and the going price had been raised up from $1.00 per can (corn, peas, green beans) to $1.45 per can. I thought...okay, around 73 cents a can. Glad I got some a few days ago when they were on sale for 59 cents per can. I got some good deals on steaks that were on sale... We don't go for the fancy expensive kind...we just get what looks good and is on sale usually and enjoy eating them. I got Hubby his favorite, strawberry flavored ice cream, a pint...and also got him a can of peaches that he likes and I got Daughter (she is living with us now) her Yorkie chocolate-mint patties candy she loves. I had already cooked supper before I left the house...hamburger stew and rice.
Later I visited Mom at the nursing home. She appeared to be doing well. We had a good visit and one of the Daughters of her roommate was there visiting her Mother as well, so the four of us had a really nice visit together.
It has been a really nice day.

Hope you are having a blessed day in the Lord.

Hello and happy Sunday to you!
Beautiful day here. We're currently getting a little light rain and the temperature around 9 a.m. EST is about mid 40's fahrenheit.
Hubby and I are doing well, thank the Lord. Thank you for thinking about us. It means a lot to know you are thought about. You all are wonderful friends and we treasure your friendship, including our dear, beloved DD Webmaster here, too.
Momis doing real well these days. They put her on a daily antibiotic and her mind is now very clear and she has returned to doing things she used to enjoy years ago, such as sketching pictures (which she is real good at) and reading magazine articles, etc. Thank you for your prayers for all of us.
The Lord blessed me to find a like-new condition eliptical trainer at a thrift shop at a good price with all the bells and whistles including a built in fan and different programs. I'm very happy over it and it is actually fun to work out with and I'm taking it easy as I get used to it. I also have my treadmill that still works, even after 14 years.

Enjoy your elliptical and your day!

Hello, Friends. It has been another chilly, chilly day here in SC but I thank the Lord for it.
....................................
One of my friends and I had breakfast together this morning at a local restaurant. She and I visited Mom and her sweet roommate afterwards, who seemed to be doing about the same.
...................................
Please pray for Hubby. He woke up not feeling too good early this morning (coughing a lot). He works outside mostly and we have recently had a much cooler temperature change.

Hope you are having a blessed day in the Lord.

It doesn't really feel like fall yet. We've had lots of rain but still high temps in the 80's, so it feels like a humid summer day. I'm very ready for the colors to change and cooler temperatures.
RYC: thanks. My usual MWF workout.

RYC: Yes, this is completely free of animal-based food including milk, chicken, eggs, etc. Also great on doing some more walking--it's good for many things--I think all good:-)

Hello, Friends. I am at GOALWEIGHT today!
....................................
Scale weighed me at 140.0 this morning. 
I weighed 3 times and it was 140.0 EXACTLY each time!
...................................
'Don't Take Anything For Granted'
I have been at 140.0 goalweight at times before and let it slowly slip away. I've been told by 2 doctors and a dietician that for my height, 5'8", 140.0 is the weight I need to stay at. I was told this when I weighed 140.0 years ago. But, what did I do? I put higher priority on eating what I desired and how much I wanted of it instead of changing my way of eating and sticking with it. It is SO EASY to put on weight and SO HARD to get it off. Of course, I know you know this.
Today's Weight (Goalweight): 140.0
Height: 5'8"
Current BMI: 21.3
Current Size: 8
Highest Weight: 205.0
Highest BMI: 31.2
Highest Size: 20 and 22
So...I plan to maintain now (with the good Lord's help) and having let it slip away more than one time before, I realize it is just as difficult to maintain goalweight (if not more so) than to get to it.
.......................................
Hope you are having a blessed day in the Lord.
