Monday Meanderings

Bible Study/Devotions:

• In the morning, I am reading the Daily Bread devotionals.
• In the evening, I am working on a journal/prayer journal.
• Munchkin will be continuing with her Keys for Kids devotions.
• She is also doing her Frontline Club “workbook” for Wednesday night program.
• We’ve just added morning devotions together before we start school.

Must Do List:

• Laundry
• Vacuum

Train Them Up:

• We are continuing to learn about how to make our home and food more healthy. We are learning about how God wants us to treat our bodies and the home/world that He has given us.
• We’re also working on a few character issues that have come up. Munchkin is dealing with some self-esteem issues. I believe some of these issues stem from all of the changes that have taken place in our lives this year, and they need to be addressed before they become serious issues.

Home Organization:

• We’re continuing to try to find a place for everything in the house.
• Our home organization is going to move outside shortly as we try to decide how to organize our edible garden/landscaping around the deck that we built this past summer.

Prayer Request:

• Please continue to pray for Munchkin. She’s still having difficulty falling to sleep at night. (She’s been getting a second wind at 8:30 at night, and is wide awake.) A praise is that we have found a tea that is helping relax her. Now, we just need to work on her allowing herself to relax enough to fall asleep.
• As always, continued prayers for D and the other troops & their families.

Menu Planning:

My menu plans haven’t been working for us lately. Instead, I’m just making sure our pantry and freezer are well stocked with our staples. I have a list of meals that we use on a regular basis if I run into a mental block for the night. We’re still sticking with Pasta Wednesday and Pizza Friday as those are working well for us.
