Have a Blessed and Restful Sunday

*

(Early Morning on the Appalachian trail in Maine)

*

Happy Sunday to you Sweet Friends,

*

Hope you have been having a lovely weekend.

*

Ours has been good so far,  I made a new dish

for dinner last nite called "Chicken Tamale Casserole".

I got it off a blog called

 http://monstermama-monstermama.blogspot.com

*

She said it was from a cooking light magazine, and I tell

you it was really delicious,  we all liked it, and it warms

 up nicely in the microwave for leftovers.  I always like

 that about dishes that I make since there is only 3  2 of us

soon!  If you can't find it and are interested let

me know and I will post it!  She also had some

other yummy looking recipes,  some I can't use

but maybe you can.

*

We also read some and rented a movie and stayed

up till almost 2:30 watching it!  I know , I know

we are crazy!!  I told you at our house fun is spelled

staying up late!  lol  Don't know why that is, but we

just love it!  We are strange,  what can I say!

*

We don't do it as much as we used to cause

as we are getting older we fall asleep in the 

middle of the movie most of the time!  lol

*

Hubby found a great movie that would be

wonderful for Valentine's Day or anytime

really,  and we both loved it. He found it

at blockbuster!

*

It is called "No Greater Love" and it is a hot

new release and it is a pg movie!  No bad

anything, it was great!!

*

Scott started moving this afternoon after work,

it was raining earlier,  but he was able to come

back tonight and get his dresser and some other

things.  His bed was at his sisters,  so he got that

as well.  Still has a desk and chair here,  but he

is staying here tonight and guess they will move

that tomorrow. 

*

His girlfriend came to help him this afternoon,

and she is such a sweetie,  she is so excited

for him because he is so excited,  and she 

has been helping him by making lists of things

he needs for the kitchen,  and buying him

stuff for his apt., cause he doesn't have any

thing for the kitchen hardly accept some

used things we gave him till he can get

something nicer.

*

  She treats him so well, it just does our heart

 good to see it after all he has been through.

He has ordered new furniture to be delivered

next Wed., I think it is,  so don't know if he

will move over there before Wed. or not.

*

We'll see!  Adventure dog Joey,  was so

excited too.  Scott was carrying stuff out

and had his backpack on and she was

going crazy to get out the door,  he is not

going anywhere without her,  think she

thinks they are hitting the trail again!!  lol

*

We went to a "Messianic Jewish Service"

at our church tonight.  It was part of a

Missions Festival we are having for the

weekend.  It was great!  A lot of fun!

I

We folked dance thru the sanctuary. I

think it was sort of like what they did

in Fiddler on the roof,  if I am remembering

correctly.  They started off in a line and

picked up people from the end of the

pews as they went,  so they got Jimmy

and I moved over and thought I was

in the clear but when they came thru

the 2nd time hubby grabbed me to go, I

wasn't sure I wanted to but it really

was fun!  I am a bit shy about being

in the center of attention, but they had

the lights dimmed so that made it better! lol

*

That was definitely a first for us,  but

gee,  I think I might want to attend their

services.  I really liked the music too.

course, I love our services and music

just as well,  it was just quite different,

so that is always fun!

*

Scott just came in,  he is bushed but

excited they got a lot done,  most everything

unpacked.  Megan set up his bathroom

for him,  cause she bought all that for him.

He really likes it,  and thinks it looks great.

*

He said everyone had grills on their porches

 so he went ahead and took his from Dee's,  and

said if they complain he will just take it 

back to her apt. if need be!

*

Well, better get ready for beddie bye!

*

My Verses for today are from 

1 Timothy 6:6-10

*

But godliness with contentment is great gain.

*

For we brought nothing into the world, and 

we can take nothing out of it.  

*

But if we have food and clothing, we will

be content with that.

*

People who want to get rich fall into

temptation and a trap and into many 

foolish and harmful desires that plunge

men into ruin and destruction.

*

For the love of money is a root of all

 kinds of evil.  Some people, eager for

money have wandered from the faith

and pierced themselves with many griefs.

*

Now hope that doesn't make anyone

think that means you can't own anything

or God is not pleased with you.

*

There were quite a number of wealthy

Godly men in the bible,  but I do think

it means we should realize what we have

comes from the Lord,  and really belongs

to him,  and we need to hold it loosely.

*

It also means we should not be killing

ourselves to try to make money so we

can keep up with the Jone's.  Cause

we can really get ourselves in trouble

when we are competing with someone

else.  Hubby and I always said we 

love a condo but don't think it would

be good for us  to own one,cause we just

might love it so much,  we might start making

excuses to stay there on the week-ends

 and not go to church like we should.

  We really do have to be careful what 

captures our hearts, cause it can be slow

and so insidious!

*

 We are to always love people,

and use things...........

not use people and love things!

Sometimes we can get that turned around!!

*

Well,  I am off to bed.

*

Have a Blessed and restful Sunday!

*

Love and Hugs,

Nellie
