Indescribable!


I have this really old dictionary which I love and in there the definition of INDESCRIBABLE is "beyond description"! Pretty cool, hey. Where am I going with all this fancy stuff, well I kinda had an amazing day when I was given three hours of freedom to "do my own thing".
Browsing around second hand book stores then off to simons town to my favourite coffee/interior shop, The "Meeting Place". I sat on a comfy couch with my cappacino, laptop on a little cute red table and "blogged" away. Everyone who came in had such a look of envy on their faces, it was lovely. The best of all N0 INTERRUPTIONS for a solid hour!! INDESRIBABLE!!(you Moms of toddlers and young ones will relate)
Then it was off for a bite to eat from an amazing pattiserie with the cute name, "The seetest thing", the pastries, cakes , tarts and quiches are like little works of art! Then some browsing around art/interior shops and finally a brisk walk on Kommetjie beach. It was one of those clear, breathless, indescribable Cape days.
I was so refreshed and revitalised - "thank you" Row!
At the end the day we watched an amazing dvd - which got me thinking. A man who is passionate about the Lord and astronomy, takes you on a slideshow of the wonders of the Universe. INDESCRIBABLE!!! I love looking out at the stars but when last had I taken the time in my day to stand on the patio and just "look " and marvel at the splendour. Amazingly I was tidying my desk and found last years Selwyn Hughes daily devotional and I turned to Sat, 13 Jan. The very scripture was , "By the word of the Lord were the heavens made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth." Psalm 33:1-22
As I put my girls to sleep I stood in awe of the greatest of all his creation - mankind, and gave thanks.
What an INDESRIBABLE day. I will get that song by Chris Tomlin and put it on my blog!!
Things that make me smile...
Modern technology - seeing Tracy and family on skype!!
my kitchen clean
my new "workspace"with pretty desk in the diningroom
clean sheets
Today I am grateful for...
time out
the smell of cappacino
beach sand stuck to my toes like glitter
God's word
