...keep thinking about these things."

Its been a while.
My thighs hurt from the 10 squats I did yesterday.
(it's good i might be able to fit into my 3year old jeans!)

So these past few weeks have been great.
There's been lessons. hard ones!
There's been frugality. so many nice things out there!
There's been simplicity. eish!
Oh and there's being Earth Conscience. expensive!

Upcycling. Gardening. Building. Dumpster Diving. Sewing. Teaching. Cooking. Playing.

Telling of stories.
Making new ones.
Accepting some old ones.

On Wednesdays we meet as a group of ladies from church.
We sit, we chat, we craft!
We share, we play, we giggle.
We indulge, we divulge, we pray.

Today Marge, shared a beautiful verse:

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." Phillipians 4:8 ESV

When too many things go all over the place, 'if there is any worthy of praise'...anything, keep focusing on it.

      There's nothing better than a bubbling laugh from Our African Mama's.
