Supercalifragilistic Saturday

I LOVE Saturday’s. They are just the best, most fun day of the week. You can sleep in (if you are old like us and don’t have to take kids to a soccer or football game), eat a dutch baby for breakfast, stay in your jammies until 10  and just run errands, stopping at either Sonic for happy hour of diet vanilla coke or Braums for a kid size shake (which is what Randy did today). We are going to some dear friends house to watch 4 hours of Season 5 of 24. Peggy is cooking dinner and this will be a great evening. We will be so wired from watching “Jack” save the world from terriorsts, that we won’t be able to fall asleep until midnight. But….it is worth it. We actually cleaned out a huge closet and took some clothes that we will never fit in again since they are the size we would love to be, but are not, to a young lady who is trying to get her life back together after leaving an abusive relationship. When we have days like today, when there is a little more “cool” in the air and really nothing that has to be done, it is easy to forget sometimes that there are people like this young lady who would love to have this kind of Saturday. It will be quite a while before she has the chance to probably do what we did today. She is a new Christian and is really trying to get her life back on track. It made me stop and count my blessings for all God has given me. First of all, my salvation, and 2nd, a husband who loves me and is so good to me. It is Randy who makes these Saturdays so fun and carefree. I cannot believe sometimes how blessed I am to have a husband who enjoys just going riding to look at new houses, or shopping with me or just pulling into Sonice to get me a coke, because he knew I would be wanting one, even before I ask. No recipes today, just a thankful heart for all God is doing in our lives. We have so much to be thankful for. A great health report from Randy’s dr this week for one. We just have to maybe begin to use one less stick of butter each week, not bad for oldies!. Neither one of us are on any medication, and that is a blessing. BUT……after I go cook my Martha Stewarts’ Pecan Pie Bars, we might be running to buy some lipitor…..Have a blessed Sunday, relax and honor Him by worshipping together with other believers.
