Daybook Online Journal: Extended Family

Welcome to my weekly post, Daybook Online Journal. This is a post where I gather all the ordinary things that happen or are happening in my day to day. Things like what I’m reading or listening to…eating and cleaning and learning…These are the small moments that make up my blessed daily life; and I want to remember them. I would love to read your Daybook Online Journal, just leave it in the comments section below. You can use my prompts or make up your own to include items important to you; mine change depending on season and circumstance.

Praying…
I am praying for my grandpa. I’m also praying for my grandma. The thought of her alone in the hospital/nursing home is overwhelming and hurts my heart.

Pondering…
life, death, family

Listening to…
Apparently I have a “My Mix” on Youtube. Not sure how that happened but I’m enjoying it. I have a pretty diverse music mix.

Reading…
My large print Bible

Bible Journaling…
Have you checked out my page that links to all my Bible journaling posts?

Around the House…
We are settling back in after being at my grandparents for four days. It’s the beginning of a new month so it’s time to switch chore assignments.

In the Kitchen…
I need to meal plan for the week, hopefully based on what I already have because I just do not even want to go to the grocery store.

Our Domestic Church…
July is dedicated to the Precious Blood of Jesus so I need to find resources to share with my children.

Saving Money…
We took a bunch of food with us on our trip to my grandparents. Some of it we used and I was blessed to be able to cook for any family that was at the house. We also we were blessed by neighbors and friends up there who brought food.
