Happy Monday, and Happy Independence Day! It's a day of celebration, not just of a day off from work or of bar-b-queing (though those things are nice too), but of the freedom of our country. We take for granted the life we live in the United States of America, with its freedoms and rights. Do you realize there are people in our world, in this 21st century, who will go to prison if they're caught reading the Bible? Where the government, and not the people, decide where the citizens will live, what kind of possessions they will have, who will give them medical care, etc? There are still nations that consider wives as less valuable than livestock. There are children dying in this world in nations where the government officials live lives of luxury, and no one can speak against this treatment without going to jail, or worse. We are so blessed to live in the USA. Let's not let anyone take away what our founding fathers fought so hard for.
So, back to Monday. I have one load of laundry to do, and floor cleaning. We're having burgers on the indoor grill because we don't have a working outdoor grill right now. My son R brought some fireworks which hopefully we'll be able to enjoy tonight. I say hopefully because we've been getting lots of rain. As a matter of fact, it rained just before we got up this morning so everything is nice and wet outside. There are so many outdoor celebrations planned for tonight, I just hope the rain lets up! We need the rain, it's true, but just for tonight it would be so cool to be dry Lord!
Have a safe and blessed Independence Day! Move it Mondays is hosted by Kristilea at
