it's start...

I've been wanting to blog for awhile now & just wasn't sure how to get started...so here I am... Yesterday the weather was so beautiful out it reached 70 degrees. My daughter Jen, the kids, & I are going to plant a garden this year. Yesterday they planted seeds for starter plants. We have a lot to learn I hope something grows. I planted tomatoes, zucchini, and jalaopenos in pots two years ago and did well. The zucchini didn't grow very well tho. I did get to pick one zucchini from it for dinner. I think beacuse it was planted in a pot is why it didn't well. I think squash needs to spread out on the ground. But the other two did very well. It was fun picking my own tomatoes and jalapenos. We are looking forward to it.

I chose my title cuz we only have today and sometimes we our today can be gone in a second... I live in life of recovery from drugs and alcohol. I was taught in treatment and AA to take it One Day at a Time... Sometimes it was moment at a time in the real hard times... In two weeks I will be celebrating 17 years of sober and clean time... I give GOD all the Glory... It is because of his Grace that I am sober and clean today...

Lately I've been in a stale place in life and my relationship with GOD... Thinking I need to do something not really sure just what it is, but something. God keeps reminding me I am to do his Will and he has me where he wants me to be for him. I've been able to help people with rides and cook some meals the past few months. God had me free during those times so I was able to do it. He always seems to open my eyes to what I need to do with the things I struggle with. I read this yesterday. Luke 5:16 ~Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.~ How long has it been since you let God have you? How long since you gave him a portion of undiluted, uninterrupted, time listening for his voice? Apparently, Jesus did. he made a deliberate effort to spend time with God... Let me ask the obvious, thought it worthwhile to clear his calendar to pray, wouldn't we be wise to do the same? WOW! How lost and distracted we get in life and then wonder why we feel so disconnected to our GOD. I am so Blessed by him with my family, friends, and life.
