Thursday, I completed a Goal!


 I have no control, but I keep trying. And I completed a goal!  I had to save $3000 to pay a bill before the end of the year and I did it.  I am going to the bank and getting it done this morning before I go to the Temple.

Now I need to save for the house taxes which are due in December.  That savings goal is 1600. I hope to complete that next month. 

Even though the shop slows down this time of year, I feel that I have more work coming in to help reach this goal. Plus, I am back to my austerity measures until my next trip which is who knows?

I am feeling pretty darn good about myself right now.

Had a wedding dress picked up last night.  Also started on another one.  I will probably have two go out next week, I think.

I am going to run to the bank and then going to pick up my buddy and take a trip up to the Spokane Temple. Going home I will pick up Kelsa for the next two nights.  They are getting ready for her birthday party on Saturday and don't want her help.  I can't imagine why.

Sissie came up last night and cooked fried shrimp and potato croquettes. So yummy.  We had my neighbor over and it was fun.  Dan mowed and trimmed my lawn bless his little heart. We also had yellow squash from the garden so good.

I froze another gallon of tomatoes and put all of my cured off potatoes in a crate.  I still have the onions curing in the garage.  I go out and stir through them twice a day to make sure air is getting to them. Then when they are good a dry, I will peel off the outer layer and store them in a crate.

Slept badly last night so I slept in a little today and I feel great.  I think just completing that huge savings goal has helped my attitude.  I can do hard things.

I have no plans for tomorrow, as I will have Kelsa, but will probably get a little sewing done. Surely, we will spend time at the park. Probably make cookies or something else fun.

I also made a beautiful peach and blackberry pie last night.  I used the blackberries I picked from the yard and peaches I froze last year. Sissie made the crusts, bless her.  All I had to do is roll them out.

Now I have to eat the pie but can't do that alone. Or can I?

Anything fun at your place?

God is good
