Watered the gardens today - a good long soak. Tomatoes are going
gangbusters - even starting to pink up on a couple of the Romas. Beans,
okra, peas, and peppers are very leafy, but no flowers or even the hint
thereof. Cucumbers are tall with lots of flowers - lets hope that they
set some good fruit.
Sat down to work on Bible study, then I couldn't recall the last time I
opened my Bible just to read. Why is it such a struggle to have a daily
quiet time? I wonder if the struggle is similar for all stay-at-home
parents with young kids - I need the kids to entertain themselves, be
gone, or be asleep to get any time for devotions. I really should
restudy Herb's Quiet Time lesson - and take it to heart! As Bert says,
the lesson is not for those I wish would hear it - it's for me!

Just sitting down to a snack of cottage cheese and apple butter
(homemade last fall from Wasem's apples). I'm told it's a Pennsylvania
Dutch thing - perhaps a relic of my birth place? Listened to Aaron
Copland as I washed the dishes this afternoon. There are few CDs that I
want to sit down and deliberately listen to, and this is one. I
want a pair of big, ear-covering headphones and an hour to myself to get
lost in Appalachian Spring, Rodeo, Quiet City, Fanfare for the Common
Man...
