Paula @ Gracefilled Moments I’m linking up with friends for Share Four Somethings end of August 2024 link up over @ Jennifer’s place, Overflowing With Thankfulness; each month, we share something we Loved or disliked, Accomplished, Improved upon/needs improvement, and Noticed
Loved
My Birthday was at the beginning of August. My friend Rich and his son Brandon (he calls me mom) took me out to Texas Road House for dinner (I’d never been there before) it was amazing. I got the 6oz Dallas filet (slightly mooing—medium rare). Then later that weekend my Aunt Dee and best friend Kim had a birthday dinner for me, Aunt dee made stuffed shells and manicotti and my best friend Kim made me my birthday cake Strawberry with cream cheese icing.
Liked
So I go to vendor craft fairs with my best friend Kim and her husband (they make resin items), though it’s really not my thing I do go and set up once in a while. This time I had my books and beaded pens. And yours truly had to visit the petting zoo and later on I had to have a mango bubble tea.
Just because
My dog recently has taken to laying like this and can’t decide if she wants to be in or out of her bed. And I thought I’d let you all know I decided I like blueberries now. The below dessert was a strawberry & blueberry cheesecake .
Noticed
- During my Scripture reading I noticed Adam was created inside the garden while Eve was created outside of the garden.
- The weather is getting cooler in the night and morning.
- The sometimes abundant number of houseplants or greens on TV shows.

Glad you had a great birthday celebration and a great August! Hope September is off to a great start too!
Thanks so much Kym
Belated Happy birthday! I love having multiple birthday celebrations! I used to love to go to craft fairs maybe 20 or so years ago. Lately, it seems like they have a handful of actual craft booths, and everything else is home improvement stuff like leaf gutters and water systems and such.
I like blueberries in muffins or on cheesecake or mixed in with strawberries. I wish I liked them by themselves.
I’m wondering if you have Adam and Eve mixed up. I was just looking at Genesis 2 and saw that Adam was created before Eden (something I hadn’t realized before), but Eve was created after God placed Adam in Eden.
We had some cool weather, but now it is hot again. I’m looking forward to some of that coolness coming back in the next weeks.
I agree I’ve taken to liking blueberries in something as opposed to by themselves.
Oh dear, I did mix up Adam and Eve didn’t I. I read it in one of my recent reads and looked it up and I still mixed it up. Lol
The days are still pretty hot here in PA, today is a little chilly though.
Happy belated birthday to you. It sounds like you had a lovely time.
The craft fair sounds like a good day out and what fun to visit a petting zoo.
I have noticed the weather changing here too. It does feel much chillier at the start and end of the day.
Thank you so much Kim 🙂
I really enjoyed your post. That’s a wrap…I like the title as well! So glad you had a nice birthday. Mulitple celebrations…you can’t beat that!! Do you sell your beaded pens? I recently saw someone on YouTube making them and had never seen one before. What a fun craft…and looks like something even I could do!!:) Here’s to great year ahead….happiest (belated) birthday wishes!
Yes I sell my beaded pens, usually just at the craft fairs I set up at when my friend does.
Belated Happy Birthday, Paula!
