The weather 

Don't hate me.  We live on Galveston Island, Texas!  

We have had sun and mid 70's.  If it rains it is usually overnight.  We might have a 20 minute shower in the day time. 

Right now most days are in the 70's.  

As I look out my window

My porch is ready for spring plants.  Although it gets up to 70's some mornings are chilly and a bit windy so I have to wait for plantings. 

Right now I am 

Thinking about starting seeds in the house.  I bought starter pots and Basil,Tyme and Lettuce seeds. 

 Thinking and Pondering 

I have been doing daily scripture writing with a FB group.  I am enjoying my mornings in the word. 

In one group we have a daily scripture.   A word to study.  And a word to doodle . . . 

I am not good at the Doodles.  It challenges me.  Some are easy like this one. 

On my bedside table 

A couple Bibles and a silver jewelry box. 

On my TV tonight 

Me I would choose Beat Bobby Flay or another cooking show.
