Information Friday


 



One of my favorite views in my living room. I took this from my chair. Cozy.

Lots to share with yesterday being the 1 year anniversary of Charlie Kirk's death, and today being the 25th anniversary of 9/11.

Let's start there.


AOC and Mamdani talking and laughing during the reading of the victim's names. They hate our country.


This year some of the 9/11 families spoke out during the readings.


I was encouraged to see this yesterday.


From the White House account today.






Then I saw this that someone had made using the towers.


I've seen reporting recently that proves that Mamdani didn't win the NYC mayoral race. Lots of fraud...






 













The memorial was good. I watched to see Glenn Beck. I was watching two things at a time last night!




VP JD Vance was FIRE last night at the Republican Convention!



Trump spoke a bit last night and a 2 hour speech on Wednesday evening!









This is very interesting. One woman juror said she also felt Lindsay Clancy was guilty, but was persuaded by other jurors to vote a different way. That man is a hero.






I want to end with this portion of a post from Heather @to_sow_a_seed on Instagram.


Have a great weekend, friends.

Welcome Autumn

 


In my life autumn begins at the beginning of September. Schools are back in session, the turning of the leaves has begun, the local produce stands have pumpkins. By starting now, we get three good months of autumn for decor and coziness. I'm all for that, how about you?

Saturday was a great puttering day for me, here at the house. We've had guests non stop since August 9th, so I haven't had my usual puttering. 

Our Sarah stayed over for a few days to have time with her sisters, TN daughter was in town, and to hold our new little grand. She left on Sunday. She had stripped the bed, so on Monday I put fresh sheets on the bed, fluffed the pillows, and with the weather being amazing, I opened the windows and aired out the room!

This week is school with Kam, and I have a co-op meeting tonight. I'm hosting a back to co-op tea on Saturday morning, but so far we only have one person signed up. I think more will sign up after the meeting tonight.

I'm in my 32nd year of home education. Amazing to think about. I've committed to finishing high school with my oldest grand, and then I'll be retired. That will be weird. It's been hard work, and joy, and I do not regret a minute of it!


Autumn puts me in a cozy mood, and I love to have candles on and books to read. Speaking of books, have any of you read "The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion," by Beth Brower? Oh, how I love these books. I actually listened to them on Audible. Hopefully the next book will be released soon. I also want to collect the books.

There is so much more to savor and enjoy this autumn. I hope you'll take the time to sit in the fresh air, eat outside, and bask in the beauty of God's creation.


"Seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter will never cease while the earth remains." Genesis 8:22

Praying for our nation tonight.

The trial in Boston has the country divided and the defense attorney doxxed the hold out juror. He should be disciplined or disbarred! He may very well have put that juror in harms way. There is such craziness going on with this case! How do you think jurors in a second trial are going to act if they think they may be harmed?
