As of Late: July 2011

Photobucket


The heat makes me blue. Which means right about now, a trillion days into a 100+ degree heat wave, I'm beyond despair. It ain't pretty. So let's distract ourselves with a beloved meme, shall we?

Here's what's going on with me, As of Late....


Lately, like this summer heat, I've felt I'm in a season I just have to get through. Endure.Survive. That's about all I have the energy and strength to do.

Lately I'm thankful that even in this unbearably unpleasant season of my life, it's down time offers rest before the flurry of activity that is going to overtake my beloved autumn.

Lately I think this coming September might be the best month for new music in the history of ever.

Lately I'm meditating on how to be a doer of the word and not just a hearer only.

Lately I've found refuge in summer movies, popcorn and cool, air conditioned movie theaters.

Lately I'm wishing that Mary Poppin would visit my house. If only to teach me how to clean with a snap of my fingers.

Lately I've been pondering where I am with Grace, my word for 2011, with half the year already over.

So what is going on with you As of Late? And don't forget to check out Critty's blog for more As of Late updates from some bloggy friends I love most of all.

Praying for your blues my friend. This summer heat is oppressive. I am in one of those stages from many other things but the heat does not help.

NTB has a new album that soon. I am snoopy dancing over here ;)

And I too have found refuge in the movie theater as of late....it's been a good movie summer...thank goodness.

<3

So glad you joined us my BT.

This heat... blech. It gets us all, even if we're able to be inside all day.

And when dear Mary Poppins stops by, send her my way, would you? I could use her help. ;-)

i am also familiar with those unpleasant seasons in life. You are in my prayers.

Also, you should so do a group Skype so Mary P can teach us ALL how to do that at the same time! ;o)

And yes the heat is oppressive here too, but I'm just crazy enough to love summer anyway.

Enjoyed your AOL.
