About me: I recently became a homemaker due to a combination of a lot of things. through hardship, I have found comfort in a lot of hard dirt and rocks. Literally, hard chirt, and big rocks...nothing will grow except rocks....and they multiply with ease when it rains. I have beautiful oak trees, but very little grass, and any flowers or foilage must be in some sort of container or above ground garden.
MY STORY:
Out of all this, God has shown me why I have kept so many rusty bird cages, old rusty ornamental railings from the porches, old wooden porch post and broken clay pots, etc.
One sunny morning while sipping a cup of coffee between 6:30 and & 7 am, I walked around in those big rocks on old marble slabs for a foot path, praying for peace and comfort. While glazing at the broken clay pots, a warm feeling came over me, as if an angel had landed on my shoulder and my heart began to melt. Someone whispered softly in my ear, "Betty, You�ve kept all of these rusty and broken things, just like I�ve kept you, and now you can see their beauty as I see yours, in time, I will put you back together again too." Thank you for caring!***********************************************************Todays Garden Junk Journal
I don�t wanna do the dishes I don�t wanna do the wash I sprinkled clothes a week ago And now my iron is lost!
I don�t wanna rattle pots I don�t wanna rattle pans I see the mail light flashin I wanna chat with friends!
Oh, the table needs some dusting and the floor could sure be mopped But I know if I get started there�ll be no place to stop.
The closets are so full things are falling off the shelves I wish for cleaning fairies and magic little elves.
They could sprinkle fairy dust and twitch their little nose The windows would be sparkling I would have no dirty clothes.
Oh, I know that I�m just dreamin My head is in the sky I must cook that meat that�s graying and bake that apple pie.
The hubby needs a bath the dog needs attention Oh... the other way around I mean my brain is in suspension
I am runnin round in circles I am getting nothing done, I keep thinking of my web I am missing all the fun!
Well, I know I�m not addicted Though I hear that all the time But I quess this stuff can wait on me Cause today I�ll be online and you can find me anytime at Gardenweb....on the Junkers side!
