Ladies, If You Are Waiting For Something To Happen In Your Life, Do Not Sit Around Idle Pick Up A Project To Complete

Let me share something with you today ladies. While you are waiting on a certain event or events to happen in your life why sit around and do nothing? Select a project and then complete it you will feel so good accomplishing something. Do not sit around and be idle. Idle means not working; in-active; avoiding work; lazy. The best definition is to pass time without working. On Thursday I decided that I was going to pick up and complete a paint project. Guess what I did the majority of the day today? You guessed right if you guessed paint. I love to faux paint and add texture or dimension to a wall. Correction, not really love it but I do it because I like the final results once completed. It is a creative project but work at the same time too. I selected three areas to complete today and I completed them all. An alcove area; dining room and kitchen. I actually selected three different patterns one for each area. What I like to do is to paint white on white so to speak. That means I take the same color paint that is on the wall already and then I add some opalescent glaze to the paint and then I create with the pattern I chose for the room. What works the best is if a wall is painted with flat paint and then you use semi-gloss or satin paint that has been blended with the glaze. It is subtle with just a hint of color and you are able to see the pattern when the light hits the walls. I have also faux painted where I select two colors of paint to do the texture with. That seems to give more of a "pop" to the walls.
I wasn't just satisfied with that today I also cleaned a bit; did laundry; ironed; and attempted to change the front headlight in my car but that was a bit complicated for me. I listened to the guy's instruction at the store where I bought the bulb. I did take off the cover that fits over the engine area and I was able to see into the area where the light is suppose to be but I just had no clue how to change the bulb. Let things rest when you don't know for sure how to do something. I will have to find someone to help me change it. I was even able to get in two walks today along with trimming an azalea bush too with my loppers, I just love that tool it gets the job done with ease. I think that was a full day so now I will rest or polish my nails first and then retire for the evening. I would say that I was not in idle mode today what do you think?
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding and He will direct your ways. I think He directed me today. Don't forget to go to church tomorrow and give thanksgiving and praise to Him.
