New beginnings

It has been a long time since I wrote anything.  We bought a fixer-upper house last fall.  I have been too busy fixing it up to do anything else except eat, sleep and work.  But we were able to move in last week.  This will be a new beginning for us.

My up-coming project will be to turn the dessert soil around us into an abundant garden.  I know it can be done.  I have done it on a small scale before.  It will be a lot of hard work to break up the hard-pan, add soil amendments, lay out the irrigation system, etc.

But today is my day of rest.  With all the hard, physical work I have been doing I have decided to take Sundays as a day of rest, literally. "Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy.  Thou shalt do no work in it."    I can think, I can dream, I can snooze or sleep.  God made a day for our bodies to catch up on itself.  So that's what I'm doing. 

And I'm dreaming of the garden I'm going to plant.
