And You?

Things I've learned this week:
1. Treating the Sabbath Day as a day of rest truly works. It's invaluable, really.
2. French pastries are divine.
3. Self-glorification is not a reason to keep doing something. Especially if it's making you feel guilty for any reason.

Photography I took Labor Day weekend in my parent's front yard:

Favorite quote of the week (from this article):
Even God rested on the 7th day. And Christ, our exemplar frequently took time to
rest and to pray. Muller said, “When we think of Jesus, we usually think of
him teaching, healing, or being accosted by hordes of sick or possessed who
sought his touch. But Jesus would just as often send people away, or disappear
without warning, dismissing those in need with neither excuse nor explanation,
and retire to a place of rest.”

Videos that made me laugh so hard I cried (but read mad's warning first. One is kind of PG-13ish, but if you're like me, you will find it hilarious. Maybe. Unless your sense of humor is different from mine. Which it could be. Still, I don't care, because I like 'em! And thank you, madhousewife! I still laugh when I watch it...).
-------------------------------

Reasons to smile:
1. I'm meeting with a psychiatrist next week.
2. My sister should be having her baby any day now!
3. Autumn is upon us. Oh, how I adore Autumn...


And you?
