Each day is glorious....each day is HIS...each day confirms my mission statement....Today was one of those days.....Woke up to my two oldest grandchildren both asleep here...Took a brisk ten minute walk...Saw a dear friend...my oldest grandchildren's Mommo and a dear friend of mine since 1992...we finished our walk and ended up at my house where we could suprise Hadley with her house warming present..a side board/buffet for her new home in Idalou...Got to see Tucker leave at 11:00 to meet his dad to go get his driver's license..Had a sweet lunch with Hadley Grace at Hayashi...Then she and I went to TTU and got nonnie started on enrolling in TTU for the fall semester (got to put faces with Meagan, and Missy from the Chancellor, Kent Hances' office) to finish that degree I started in 1967 at NSU (Natchitoches, La)...Then our once a month trip to shop and laugh at TJ Maxx...Then back by McWhorters to pick up Tommy/poppie....Dinner at Cooper Drive Inn... Then Hadley made her infamous tie-dyed cupcakes while poppie watched to Olympics (I love them; however I do equate them to March Madness..if you get my drift)...They took my mind off the tamoxie reaction that is getting my hair..Had a precious phone visit with Emily Anne ..Saw pictures from Scott's Mystery Trip with his youth at Arlington ...Got a sweet message from Sam Simon with her sweet promise of Milton's roasted chicken for Wednesday night dinner ...Praised Dr. Jane Rowley for her excellent fourth stage re-construction this past Thursday..(which began in February 2009... (almost finished....) Now I am having a little fun on my blog....and awaiting a new day tomorrow... Blessings to HIM...for new are HIS mercies each morning...morning by morning...GREAT IS HIS FAITHFULLNESS....LORD UNTO US..... (Add scriptures later..)
Blessings......Martha

PS...now I have to learn the whole new system....I knew I was way ahead of the game all my life...
I will always ramble, talk alot,love my God, my family and my freedom....that's just who I am...
It's a little scarey and a little exciting to be back on my blog! Okay, it's only been a month and I know I went my usual "Drama Queen" self...(but my husband....Tommy Gene Keener..aka Tommy Keener aka...Tom Keener.. is quite used to it..) Remember when I started cleaning out the house room by room in January..okay..it really started in October....fall cleaning, ran into holiday clean up, in spring cleaning..right on to after school cleaning...into getting ready for summer...now "It's Vacation Time!!" Well.................the last months have been an eye opener for me....Just when I had myself all poised to put my God given talents to use for His glory....Wham..the brakes slammed and God had other plans for me....Be sure and ask Tommy about the night I took a ten second walk around our entire block railing at God that I would never survive; (he will remember it vividly...(was the night before Mother's Day..)that I was born to talk or God would not have given me a tongue..that social was who I was...I probably talked early for that very reason...that if I had to watch what I said I would crumble and die and on and on and on....oh, and I added with snot slinging tears( right into a cup towel just like my mother, Tommie Merle...)that my children were so busy that I could only find out what they were doing on the social media and then I dramaticly added "Take me now, Lord..." Well........He did...He took me right out of my comfort zone.... All those months of nesting filled with walks down memory lane....they brought me to where I am this morning.......Sitting at my computer socializing (God forbid...) when I must put some of that much needed discipline to work and find my time with HIM and then to the rest of the day......
