Homestead Entrance, a Cheery Greeting!
Hawaiian hostas and Japanese maple add a touch of quiet elegance to our humble homestead.
Homestead Grapes
The promise of a heavy harvest . . although I think these need to be thinned to really produce well.

In My War Room . . .
Hmm . . .
My war room . .
Oddly enough I pray most to all of almost every day . .
And yet . .
I seem to be currently war room deficient!! I mean I have nothing posted in my war room.
After I redid my list today I realized . .
{How did I not see this before?!!?} . .
My list redo IS my war room list!!
Simple.
Every time I redo my list there are at least 1-2 names on it . . as well as a variety of situations that have been festering in the back of my mind keeping me awake nights . .
These are going to be the subjects of my war room!!
Wow!!!
Why?!?!? "Illinois lawmakers give pot decriminalization another try" - Chicago Tribune
As I watch this play out I want to share my perspective:
1) Illinois will become even more dangerous for drivers as this legalization will undoubtedly spur an increase in the number of people who are high behind the wheel. (Could we possibly have more people who use the turn signal Opposite the direction they are turning!??!! And more stoners driving in ice and snow . . )
2) This will provide a unique depopulation option. As more and more people walk/drive/work totally stoned (but with only a small amount of weed in their pocket) they will be killed off by their own poor judgements.
And then there is the fact that weed is often not pure weed but is laced with other drugs ~ so the government is, in effect, legalizing all drugs in small quantities!!
All I can do is sit here and shake my head at the 'thought process' that went into this legislation.
When it's Not Okay
Today is one of those days. You know the days when you simply have to take that next step and do something radical about it all . .?!!
I've been praying about all of this, but know I have to put plans into motion to take the next critical step.
So . . .?
Today, under the pressure of yet another sinus infection, I spent my break redoing my list . . . you know, that list that helps me see and focus on my goals!
And, in rewriting my list, I've got a new direction.
I will admit that sometimes (for some reason) my list will be the same old thing. That's disheartening!!
My list today, though, revealed a lot I already knew but maybe simply hadn't come to terms with yet. I now have a clearer plan and feel in control of my future again!! I have consolidated the items I came up with and have a fun list of six (6) easy items to work on over the next week. Each of these, although small, will make a HUGE difference towards my future. Things have to change and it's entirely up to me to act on this. Time for some major changes!!
What do you do to organize your dreams and plans?
