Good Evening Sweet Encouragers,

~~~

I am late again today, had to run some errands

and had a few chats on the phone as well

~~~

Yesterday I meant to tell you a great tip I learned

from an email someone sent me awhile back that

I have tried and tested and found to be very useful.

~~~

Actually, I am quite thankful for it because it

makes my life a lil easier. You will laugh when

I tell you what it is, but I am serious!!

~~~

It is a very easy way to clean your microwave,

just take a cup of water and put it in the mircrowave

and heat it for 2-3 mins. then let it set for about

30 seconds or so, and wipe out your microwave

with a wet cloth or paper towel. It wipes clean

with no problem at all, or no need for soap or

anything, it is quick as can be. If you get delayed

for some reason, just repeat the process and do

it again. You will seriously love how easy this is.

~~~

Well, I am thankful today that I got a lot of things

returned that needed to be returned and made

$20.00 back in the process.

~~~

Also, thankful we had a "Chocolate Elvis" today,

(our favorite smoothie, in case you don't remember)

and one of my returns paid for it!!! ha

and I still had 2/3 of the money leftover.

~~~

I am thankful that Scott was able to work

today and again tomorrow with a friend since he does

need some moo-lah!

~~~

I am thankful that I don't have to cook tonight

cause we all had a late lunch.

~~~

I am thankful that we have finally started laying the tile

in our bathroom shower last Sat., and we are working

on it again tonight. (Hubby is drilling holes as I write for the tiles

that go where the faucets and stuff go. I am so ready for this

project to end, it has been going on about 9 mos. now.

No ones fault....just life happens when you are making

your plans!! ha

~~~

I am thankful for all the rain, especially since Scott just

fertilized everything, so it has gotten watered in nicely.

~~~

I am thankful for the new flowers Scott planted for us

and all the yard work he did this week.

~~~

I am thankful for my sweet hubby who is such a

handy guy. This is hard and tedious work and would

be a very expensive job if we had it done by a

professional tiler, yet it is looking like a professional

tiler is doing it!! yea Jimmy!!

~~~

And most of all... I am thankful to be alive and well,

and thankful to be a child of God, just doesn't get

any better than that!!

~~~

Well, I am off to assist with the tiling again, just

came back to finish up while he is drilling another

hole for the shower pipe.

~~~

Have a Great Weekend!!

~~~

Hugs and Blessings,

Nellie

P.S. and make sure you try that microwave tip,

I am telling you.........you will love it!!
