Still a Gypsy

Got new canner, new bike, happy with both!!!!!

Rant time. My aunt Lillian passed away this past weekend...she was 91. I read the obituary in the paper and they did not include my father in the list of surviving relatives! That  upsets me because Dad didn't have any choice in this matter, it just happened! The leat these people could have done is give him the place of a surviving familymember, labelled him adopted or whatever, but no! Two of those siblings have done this, and it never occurred to me to look on the others. I suppose this should make me thankful for the Lamb's Book of Life....my name WILL be written in that place!!!

I'm not giving up on the milk. I tried mixing longer and that made a world of difference. the milk as a result looks creamier. Can't wait to try it in some cereal...maybe tonight.

The yoghurt didn't come out the way I would have liked at all. It was rather gross looking, so I'll just stick with milk when making yoghurt. I won't give up on the process though.

I'm posting this as sort of a public soul searching event. I'm wanting to get a sense of the calling that God has on y life. I know I won't find the asnwer here, but I feel like I really need to get some things off my chest, talk about what I like and dislike. I love writing my poems, I like having the time set aside to do so. I love beign surrrounded by animals of all sorts except pigs. I'd love to one day plant a garden and be able to truly enjoy where I am. I want to be able to just stop and smell life all around me. I want to marry a good man, a wonderful man, who would complete a family unit. If he's my opposite, that would be fine as long as he is living for Jesus Christ, Baptized in JEsus' Name, Filled with the Holy Ghost. I wnat to enjoy every season God made and called Good, and I want to enjoy and find joy in all seasons of my life. I want to joy in the simple things as well as the grand. I'd like the freedom to persue what interests me, or curiosities. I want whatever I do to have some meaning. I want to impact this world for Christ, and make things better than when I came here. Even if God doesn't wnat things to get better, i.e. His second coming, things will wax worse, before He comes, I still want to do my own part of trying. I don't just want to lay down and forget those who are struggling. I want to be ready, a part of that church without spot or wrinkle. I want to be in the center of God's will, not my own or mankind's, but God's. I want to be able to be used by Him, for His glory, not for bad things in the world, but a force for good.Amen.
