Hopefully he can continue to go into his office. I'm sure your grands are enjoying home economics as much as mine do. Ha! It's lovely to see a nice laundry room--lucky sister. Continue to stay well!

I am not sure I can honestly consider myself a blogger anymore, since I am so hit or miss these years. But since the day we were called to "social distancing" (which I really prefer to classify as physical distancing b/c I am not for socially disengaging at all), I have put an "Encouragement Post" on Facebook each day. I am doing what I can to encourage brothers and sisters in Christ by sharing little bits of scripture, songs, and encouraging words. It's not much, but it's something... so I decided that I would also share these on my blog in case someone wanted to read them that way. I love your photos and the dried roses are beautiful. I pray that God is blessing and encouraging you in all this! xoxoCharm and Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930920593855400694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-90901220627338357972020-03-30T19:31:38.313-04:002020-03-30T19:31:38.313-04:00I was about to check up on you by e-mail when I th...I was about to check up on you by e-mail when I thought I would double-check your last blog post. What a pleasant surprise! You are back. Yay! We have been home for two weeks now...and are making the best of it! The company is good, the accommodation is fine and the food is mostly good (is I say so myself!). I think of it as being SAFE at home...rather than STUCK at home. Glad you were able to be at the baby shower. Love the cake! Take care of yourself!

We miss seeing the grandchildren but happy our children can work from home and the online school lessons are going well for the grands. WE head today that a neighbor is in ICU with Covid-19, so it now hits close to home and makes us worry even more. I usually love to read but for some reason can't seem to concentrate on my books right now. I've been feeling better organizing things--keeps me busy!

They are working from home but he is going to his daycare which I'm not happy about at all. It's just a handful of kids in a very nice lady's house. I trust her but I'd still rather he be home. That way if they were all quarantined we could get in our car and visit them. I'm concerned that maybe one of the other parents isn't working from home and will get the virus. I like the life lessons that your grandchildren are being taught. You take care and stay well.

I am still working PT but my office is pretty much just a few employees there at the same time and office traffic has decreased which is a good thing. My husband and soninlaws still have a job but my one daughter that works in the dental field will not have her job until later on in May has been what is predicted. We are all just praying for one another and lifting one another up. I surely don't know what tomorrow holds but I FOR SURE know who holds tomorrow. So glad I can trust Him. Take care dear Vee.

She's quite the inspiration! but, I am with you.. no walk. Oh wait a minute.. I did walk the Appalachian Trail some years back... My daughter was driving and we came to a sign that noted the trail to our right. She stopped, we got out, walked maybe 50 yards and turned around and went back to the car. In a sense.. we had walked on the App. Trail.

I really like your sister's laundry room. Mine has only a few windows, high up and made of glass brick. It's in the basement. Love the plants, the view, the layout and the pretty color from the curtains in your sister's laundry room.I consider myself very blessed to have my family close by during this time of self-isolation. Of course, I am pretty much a home body in the best of times, but I do miss my trips to the grocery store.Thickethouse.wordpresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17187303460677067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-39755533463806650912020-03-21T23:54:15.694-04:002020-03-21T23:54:15.694-04:00Yes, I do know her!

One of my favorite things.<br />We don't know anyone personally that has the virus, but know it's out there and pray for all those who are infected. Love that the grandkids are doing "life lessons". I grew up with such routine. Mom did laundry on Monday, ironed on Tues. Always had hot meals. we all had chores and every Saturday morning, we striped our beds and put on new sheets, dusted and cleaned our rooms. I tried with our kids, but wasn't always successful!!Wandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06941735389982354519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-92168550432464561792020-03-21T18:39:15.367-04:002020-03-21T18:39:15.367-04:00Nice to see a post from you and know all is okay w...Nice to see a post from you and know all is okay with you.

My youngest daughter ( a single mom) has lost her job due to this. My husband may not have much work if we get told to stay in our homes, and I am truly not sure how my other daughter will be affected. It is such a scary time in our lives and I truly wonder where all of these sick people are coming from. It seems as though everyone is suddenly sick with this virus. I believe my husband had it in the fall and if so, he did not make anyone sick.

So happy to hear from <i>A Haven for Vee!</i> (Even though I also love hearing from you in my blog comments, it's extra special to be invited into your Haven!) <br /><br />I am glad that your son is still able to get into the office. I chuckled at his comment about the Hazmat suit. And it sounds as if the grands are making good use of their time. Oh, and those furry grands! Those are the perks (purrrrks?) of working from home! <br /><br />I am glad that your niece was able to have her baby shower and that you were able to go. Don't "normal" things seem like such a long time ago? (How does that happen?) Blessings on this new baby girl and I hope you're able to snuggle her while she is still small and snuggly! <br /><br />Your sister's home is lovely. I don't think I'd mind doing laundry in that room! <br /><br />I'm with you!
