November Update

· Photos,Life

*The photo above is not mine. I wanted to use a Thanksgiving picture, but I don't really have one, so here we are.

I'm sure most of you are wondering what I've been up to the past couple months. I've done a lot of sewing, reading, and hanging out with my family. I've added some pictures below of some of the things I've been sewing recently and also just some pictures from my life recently.

As far as my health, I'm doing a lot better. I will be having a few more ozone sessions in December, just as a booster before I (hopefully) head off to Capernwray.

 

Ah, dear soul, if you have been laboring under the weight of trying to love God, rest. Love, true love, is not a wearying task, but a sweet surrender, a glad and natural outpouring of the heart.

-Charles Spurgeon

 

Photos #1 and #2- I think I've said something on here about making pumpkins, but I haven't added any photos. Here are some photos of the pumpkins I've been making and selling to people here in Nairobi.

Photos #3 and #4- I've made several doggy bandanas for Finn, which he enjoys wearing. Whenever I get one out, he gets really excited. (I know, I know, the pictures are terrible! I was using my phone which has a terrible camera!)

Photos #5, #6, and #7- I saw a YouTube video on how to make a guinea pig "hidey hut" and I thought our kitties would like, so I made them a giant one.

Now for the good pictures!

Choosing gratitude right in the middle of what's hard isn't denial. But it is choosing to do only what can be done today.

For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

I hope y'all enjoyed these photos and hearing about what's been happening this month for me. I also wanted to say that I'm trying to work out a new posting schedule as well as a possible monthly newsletter.

As always, I would love to hear what your favorite photos are! Have a great week!
