Glad you had an easier return to work. I find it's sometimes nicer to have a "Christmas" get together in the new year. It's something to look forward to without all the stress and pressure that the run up to Christmas can sometimes hold.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103884780854638066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-56744904202781964292020-01-10T18:41:17.772-07:002020-01-10T18:41:17.772-07:00I love that little statement at the end--Yes!

It's so important!<br />And spending time out with 'the girls' is always a blessing!Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912030095491960175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-13226866255273596142020-01-10T16:37:36.480-07:002020-01-10T16:37:36.480-07:00It sounds like a wonderful week, Susanne.

Some friends just dropped by to visit and brought us some soup. It's not homemade, but the gesture was so nice and it's one of our favorite kinds. Your thoughtful friend reminds me that it only takes a few moments to offer someone words of encouragement and that I should do so more often.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09147413132595250490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-56351559732864936542020-01-10T14:05:21.787-07:002020-01-10T14:05:21.787-07:00I'm all about encouragement... and soup!

We are having snow as I type and we are supposed to get up to 5 inches today. We have a dinner invite for the late afternoon so it will be interesting to see what the roads will be like. Temps are dropping way low for us this weekend and into next week. Brrr. Hope you have a relaxing weekend!ellen b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14531430948905935301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-66869913346091421362020-01-10T05:31:43.801-07:002020-01-10T05:31:43.801-07:00Our Sunday School did that once or twice--had a Ne...Our Sunday School did that once or twice--had a New Year party some time in January rather than a Christmas one in December. It really helped ease the busyness of December and gave us something to look forward to in January.<br /><br />I'm glad you had some helps in getting back into routine. My husband just went back to work Monday, and it seemed to take me a few days to feel like I was into the swing of things again.<br /><br />I need to remember to express encouragement, too. And we've enjoyed soups a couple of times the last several days--hits the spot when it's cold out.Barbara Harperhttp://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-92160875942015360712020-01-10T05:17:41.195-07:002020-01-10T05:17:41.195-07:00Encouragement, time with friends, a thoughtful gif...Encouragement, time with friends, a thoughtful gift, an easy week and homemade soup - wow sounds like a really good week filled with God's grace. Have a good weekend and stay warm. We are supposed to turn cold and snowy here too - but then it is January! See you again soon.

The small group i led last semester also couldn't get our days in sync for a Dec gathering so we are meeting for breakfast out tomorrow at a local tea shop. <br /><br />Love homemade soups, have you tried the one i posted yet?? We figured out the two separate broth things: if you're using meat, you sauté it first with the smaller amt of broth. I leave the chicken out so didn't think to tweak that part of the recipe. 🤣<br /><br />Love encouraging gifts and notes, <br /><br />Enjoy the weekend!
