Where Has The Week Gone?

My Gran always said that "Idle hands are the devil's workshop!" so I got busy!!!






Well, this week has flown by and I can't believe that I haven't posted anything but my 1st Blogoversary candle! It seems that I have been consumed with two different projects this week.

Project # 1 - Bible Study - I am facilitating Esther, It's Tough Being A Woman by Beth Moore. It is a wonderful study and I am enjoying all the research that goes along with it. But, this time around my boss challenged me to do something outside of the box. So, I started a Bible study blog, Koinonia. This has been fun but it has become necessary for me to prepare something pertaining to each day's study. This is good because I love a challenge. (LOL!) And it is bad, being the compulsive type, it has taken on a life of its own and I think about it all the time. I do think I have hit my stride and now I will be able to juggle both blogs.

Project # 2 - Storm Cloud Shawlette - This is a free pattern and totally addictive. I am using some Colinette Jitterbug to do it and I am almost finished (4 more rows to go so I can wear it this weekend). Work, arthritis and Bible study have crowded out a huge junk of my normal knitting time. Normally I would have finished this in a couple of evenings. And, the drastic change in temperature for 80 degrees and 100% humidity to 36 degrees has aggravated the arthritis in my right thumb making everything painful. I am trying to type, knit, and write through the pain.

Esther 3 really caused me to reflect on my "inner Haman". He could be king of the mean girls and the wannabes! It has definitely sent me to my knees in prayer to guard against those sins that trip me up. On to Chapter 4!
