I (Connie) am a member over at Arthritis Connect. On Fridays I like to wish my friends there a Fantastic Friday.
Today is a Fantastic Friday, but it seems somewhat like a frantic Friday too.
Here is a little look at today’s events.
Fantastic News
Actually this news came yesterday, but it is still fantastic. It looks like there is partial approval for me to get an 18 month visa to go join Mom and Dad on the field. This is 6 months longer than we had expected, so we are really excited. This is fantastic news. Praise the Lord! I will not be able to leave for PNG until at least June of 2012.
This morning I realized the frantic part of the news. Do you realize that June of 2012 is only 6 months away! There is so much to do in the next six months. Also, please be praying for Dad and Mom. They are still awaiting word on the renewal of their visas, and their visas expire the end of this month.
Feeling Fine
For some reason the Lord blessed me with feeling fairly well this morning. I actually woke up ready to get out of bed and get moving.
Fulfilling Time in the Word
Before I got busy though, I spent some time with the Lord in the quiet of the morning. Thank God for His word.
Filling Food
After my soul was filled, I enjoyed the wonderful breakfast that the Lord provided me this morning. It was delicious and filling. In fact it was so filling that there is still some leftover for lunch!
Fun in the Kitchen
Next event was to start doing some things in the kitchen. It is catch up on cooking day. At a website called heavenlyhomemakers, I found recipes for condiments. First I threw together the ingredients for Onion Soup Mix and then the spices for Taco Seasoning Mix. Look yummy? You can find the recipes here and here.
Fabulous Shower
After that it was time to enjoy a wonderful, warm shower.
Fine Fixin’s
Now it is time to gobble down some fine fixin’s for lunch.
Frantic Friday Afternoon
After lunch comes the rest of the frantic fantastic Friday. Why there are only a few things left to do. A meal or two to make, the floor to sweep, an email to write, and a shopping list and budget to work up for next week.
Well, I had better get going. Time is fleeting!
Have a fabulous, fantastic, fun, fine, and fulfilling Friday everyone!
