We should get out and pick up a few things for the winter, but it's cold, so we'll see what happens.<br /><br />I think we all have one of those vampires inside of us that want to keep our hearts turned away from God. I wonder if when we have that desire to keep close to God, there is more of a struggle than when we don't. <br /><br />I myself have been struggling with an unfair situation that has happened to me and a number of my co-workers. Our agreement has been violated, and we have been given pay cuts because they have changed how they structure the levels of pay. Due to my writing of emails and arguing our case, my assignment is being reviewed to see if I should get my level restored. I already know it should not have been changed to begin with. Instead of trusting God for the outcome, my thoughts have been dwelling on the situation quite a bit. God is in the process of wooing my thoughts back, though. I am so thankful for His love for me.<br /><br />God bless you, FlowerLady!Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-22762701078452593312011-09-20T17:29:20.568-04:002011-09-20T17:29:20.568-04:00Your roses looked so beautiful, like I could reach...Your roses looked so beautiful, like I could reach out and touch them.

The last one died almost immediately and I returned it. <br /><br />Sometimes I bake things just to have that glorious smell in the house. The food is just a plus.<br /><br />Hope this week is a great one for you.gldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645803822598151817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-87130529518693512812011-09-19T10:02:20.302-04:002011-09-19T10:02:20.302-04:00Lovely roses.

It would probably not be possible to keep my mouth shut.<br /> MMMM, that bread smells good!<br /> African violets always remind me of my mothers dear friend who lived in an old, old house. Her little pots of African Violets sat in the kitchen window overlooking an herb garden. I was only around 6 years old, but I have always remembered her house and her little fuzzy leafed flowers sitting on the windowsill.jerilandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07418564262425621746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-53326617649710486882011-09-18T08:48:22.848-04:002011-09-18T08:48:22.848-04:00I know that aroma you speak of about the roses, th...I know that aroma you speak of about the roses, the real old fashioned ones, the ones in Grandma's garden.

They literally wear you out with the negative energy they put out. I can pick up on someone like that a mile away, and generally just stay away from them, if possible. If not, I try to pray and then move on.<br />Enjoy your bread and breakfast and your weekend. Put up your force field around you.<br />Hugsdenimflyzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04737448177805751756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-41280310525862849452011-09-17T08:56:43.363-04:002011-09-17T08:56:43.363-04:00I LOVE your beautiful roses.

Your Texas Sage bloom makes a lovely header photo. As for your African Violet, my only advice is not to over-water it.
