"The greatest use of a life.."

Yesterday, I opened all the windows and doors in the house to let some fresh air in while I was cleaning and organizing.

As I walked by the corner on the way to the hall where my grandma's Bible sits on a built-in shelf, a breeze came through and blew the pages of her Bible open. I went to close it and make sure nothing was damaged when I saw this tiny inscription on the bottom of one of the first pages of it.

It reads: "The greatest use of a life is to spend it for something that will outlast it."

Wow.

Yesterdays goals and what I'm doing today

So, yesterday's goals update is as follows:


Sweep & Swiffer all vinyl floors
Clean both bathrooms
Make dinner before Robert comes home from work
Pay bills
Read
Bible Study


Pretty much, I just didn't end up having time to finish a meal before we had to leave for our meeting, and my leisure reading got shoved to the backburner, as it doesn't affect jurisdictions/ daily living. I also added (and completed!) the following tasks to yesterday's list: 

Trip to Target for freebies/ queen size air mattress (which I have to go to Lake Stevens to get today, Marysville was out) 
Iron sheets
Put away laundry


Today, I need to accomplish the  following: 


Trip to Target for air mattress
Clean kitchen
Dust entertainment area (Bryan is coming over today to hopefully fix the surround sound)
Put away Robert's clothes
Bible Study
Reading


Here we go!
