Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Cheese Cake


49 degrees this morning and cloudy for walking.
Sunrise 6:47
Saw a couple of rabbits run across the street on my way to town.
Just about light now when I get to town and the street
lights are just blinking off.

Started my walk going around both the cemeteries,
the new road and ball park. 

Reflection in the pond.


Walking around the ball park I noticed one of the chicken 
laying in the little hole in the dirt.


At first I though she was hurt because she was moving her wing funny.
This is going to sound funny but I called the other chickens
and told them to check on their friend.
They actually came over and that's when the chicken got up and looked fine.
I'm wondering if she was making a nest there?

I was surprised to see that the roof job on the church was already done.
Usually things take a long time to get done around here.
They even worked on it yesterday (Sunday)
which I thought strange working on Sunday on a church.


It was delightful being out and walking early this morning.
No others were about.
I did see KitKat though.
Haven't seen him in a while.
Didn't see him at first and he came running over to me.

Monday, so got the sheets washed and hung out on the line,
plus another load.

Today I baked a Cheese Cake, Ken's favorite.

I was knitting on my blue throw blanket and noticed a couple
of rows back that I made a mistake.
I could have left it in and no one would have noticed but
it bothered me so I back tracked a couple of rows.
Then knitted and caught up to where I was.

That's all I have for today.
Thanks for stopping by.

I watch my wife knitting, 
and it's like watching close-up magic to me.

Sunday

 



A hymn we sang at church this morning.
I'm thankful that in my church we still sing all the old hymns.

The Old Account Was Settled
F M Graham
1.  There was a time, I know,
When in the book of heaven,
An old account was standing
For sins yet unforgiven;
My name was at the top
And many things below,
I went unto the Keeper,
And settled long ago.

Refrain:
Long ago, long ago,
Yes, the old account was settled long ago;
And the record’s clear today,
For He washed my sins away,
When the old account was settled long ago.

2. The old account was large,
And growing every day,
For I was always sinning,
And never tried to pay;
But when I looked ahead
And saw such pain and woe,
I said that I would settle,
And settled long ago. 

3. When at the judgment bar
I stand before my King,
And He the book will open,
He cannot find a thing;
Then will my heart be glad,
While tears of joy will flow,
Because I had it settled,
And settled long ago. 

4. When in that happy home,
My Saviors home above.
I'll sing redemptions story
And praise Him for His love;
I'll not forget that book
With pages white as snow
Because I came and settled
And settled long ago.

5. O sinner, seek the Lord,
Repent of all your sin;
For thus He has commanded,
If you would enter in;
And then if you should live
A hundred years below,
E'en here you’ll not regret it,
You settled long ago. 

A Blessed Sunday to you.
HappyK😊❤️
