Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
I express love and gratitude for all I have learned and accomplished.
Yesterday was really a very good day.
Yesterday was a break- neck sort of day. I seemed to rush through the day at a great speed of knots. It was agreat day - just busy!
After breakfast I went for my weekly workout at the gym. I think I'm improving. I'm glad it's only for a half hour. I think I prefer my workouts at home.
I took my foster daughter home from there, and raced off to the markets to meet a friend of a friend. She introduced me to friends she was staying with who are neighbours of some friends from church ( friends of friends of friends? Whew!). We had a coffee and a chat and a walk round the markets. We bought some fruit and veg and some homemade jam. Then it was time to say goodbye and move on to the next place.
That was to visit Michael and Pam to celebrate Michael's 80th birthday. Met another group of people including Pam's daughter who was the Mother of two little boys I used to work with at my last job in the city. How small is this old world! Of course the little boys are grown up now- but I was very fond of them. it was great to have been touched by memories of them.
After we said goodbye there, we had to rush to our love job of mowing the church lawn. Two hours later we were finished that and very ready for a shower and clean up. There is always a joy in mowing a lawn. It always looks great when we are finished - having pride a job well done
Last night we watched "New Tricks" on telly while I knitted.
The good things in my life yesterday were all the lovely people who touched my life throughout the day.
I was grateful for the interesting experiences I had yesterday, and the people who touched my life.
God in my life
The lovely people we met today, mowing the church lawn, reading my little white book and praying
Let peace be with you as you go through your day, and let that peace grow within you, and.... pass it on! C.

A wonderful Day
Hello wonderful world!
Today has been pretty wonderful for me!
Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
Life mirrors my every thought.
As I keep my thoughts positive,
life brings me only good experiences.
Today has been a day of sunshine fun and new experiences.
We travelled to Pittsworth yesterday. It was a good trip over. We got a lovely camp site at a very nice van park right opposite the unit where our travelling companions stayed. We had a heavy downpour late in the day. That curtailed our exploring. We did find a couple of op-shops, the Art Gallery, the postoffice, a historical village. We planned to go back today, which we did quite happily in the beautiful sunshine.
We shopped for bargains at the op- shops for plants, scarves, belts, fancy plant pots. The Art Gallery was great as well. I met a lady who likes to travel too. She and her husband are going west in 3 weeks and to Africa later in the year. Our companions met a lady who came from the Blue Mountains area where they originally came from. And we bought a card with picture the same as an original painting by a local artist.
From there we went to the historical village. We meet a man who showed us round the village . That made the visit interesting and enjoyable. We learnt a lot about Pittsworth and its history. The village was extremely well kept. People were working on displays within the village. I guess that's why it looks so well kept.
After a picnic lunch at Rotary Park we went to Millmerran. It was 42 km from Pittsworth. Lovely scenery on the way. Huge cotton crops along the way too. The sky was so blue. The clouds were like huge cotton balls just hanging without the slightest movement. There must have been no wind to keep them so still. Millmerran was really different town from Pittsworth. It didn't look quite so well kept. But we did enjoy the murals on different buildings depicting the history of the town, And the find of the day was All Saints Church which was very old with beautiful stained glass windows, and graves all round the building.Took lots of photos.
Tonight I watched "Wildest Africa"
What was good today?
All the interesting things we saw. The lovely friendly people we met.
What I was grateful for today.
Getting to all the places and back again safely.
God in my life.
Beautiful sunshine. Lovely company. Prayer. Positive thoughts.
