EVENIN' SWEET FRIENDS,

*

HOPE YOU HAD THAT FUNTABULOUS 

WEEKEND WE TALKED ABOUT

 ON THURSDAY!!

*

WE ACTUALLY DID HAVE ONE!!

WE HAD FRIENDS OVER ON FRIDAY

NIGHT FOR DESSERT AND GAMES.

* 

WE TALKED, ATE TURTLE CHEESECAKE, 

DRANK COFFEE (DECAF OF COURSE),

  PLAYED PHASE 10 AND LAUGHED LOTS,

 TILL MIDNIGHT.

THAT IS OUR KIND OF EVENING!

*
SATURDAY MORNING WE SLEPT IN, MADE

THESE DELECTABLE BLUEBERRY MULTIGRAIN

PANCAKES FOR BREAKFAST.  IT WAS A TARGET

 BRAND ARCHER FARMS MIX, AND THEY WERE

REALLY GOOD. 

* 

WE HAD JOEY ALL WEEK SO SCOTT CAME 

OUT LATER ONCE HE GOT OFF WORK AND

 SO I MADE A NICE SALAD AND WE ORDERED

 A PIZZA AND HAD A NICE LONG VISIT.  IT WAS

THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE HAD HIM ALL TO

OURSELVES IN 4 MONTHS, SO IT WAS VERY NICE.

*

WE ARE VERY EXCITED BECAUSE HE HAS A JOB

INTERVIEW ON TUESDAY NIGHT.  WE ARE SO 

HOPING THIS WILL BE THE JOB WE HAVE BEEN 

PRAYING FOR HIM.

*

SUNDAY WE WENT TO SUNDAY SCHOOL AND

 CHURCH AND IT WAS A BLESSING AS ALWAYS.

WE GOT TO SEE SOME WONDERFUL FOLKS

THAT HAD MOVED AWAY, BUT WERE HERE 

VISITING THEIR FAMILY. WE KNEW HER FOR 

A LONG TIME AS A SINGLE PARENT AND SHE 

IS JUST A REAL SWEETHEART AND THEN HER

HUBBY TO BE STARTED COMING AND THEY

 GOT MARRIED (AND EVERYONE WAS SO

ECSTATIC FOR HER) BUT A YEAR OR SO AFER

THEY MARRIED THEY HAD TO MOVE AWAY

 BECAUSE OF HIS JOB. BUMMER!!  BUT IT

WAS JUST SO GREAT TO SEE THEM AGAIN,

EVEN IF FOR JUST A FEW MINUTES, AND 

THEY STILL LOOK VERY HAPPY.

*

THEN WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GO PICK

 SOMETHING UP OVER AT SOMEONE'S

HOUSE, SO THEY INVITED US TO LUNCH,

SO THAT WAS A NICE SPONTANEOUS

 SURPRISE.  WE HAD A LOVELY LUNCH

 AND SWEET FELLOWSHIP.

*

AFTER WE CAME HOME, READ THE PAPER,

BUT NOT TOO LONG SINCE WE WERE 

FALLING ASLEEP..........TOOK A NICE LONG

NAP THEN WATCHED SOME PASTORS ON

TV WHILE WE DID THE EXERCISE BIKE.

WE DON'T USUALLY DO IT SUNDAYS,

 BUT WE WERE BEHIND SO NEEDED TO

GET A GOOD START INTO THE NEW WEEK.

*

WELL, HOPE YOU HAD

 A NICE MONDAY!!

*

BLESSING'S, HUGS 

AND SUMMER FUN TO YOU,

NELLIE

HAVE A PRAISE-FILLED SUNDAY

HAPPY SUNDAY- SWEET FRIENDS

FUNTABULOUS WEEKEND!!

(SHORT FOR FUN AND FABULOUS) LOL

*

OURS HAS BEEN GOOD BUT I AM TOO POOPED

TO TELL YOU ABOUT IT NOW,  HOW ABOUT

 ON MONDAY???

THE VERSE FOR TODAY IS FROM

PSALM 86:11-13

TEACH ME YOUR WAY, O LORD,

AND I WILL WALK IN YOUR TRUTH;

GIVE ME AN UNDIVIDED HEART,

THAT I MAY FEAR YOUR NAME.

I WILL PRAISE YOU, O LORD MY GOD,

WITH ALL MY HEART,

I WILL GLORIFY YOUR NAME FOREVER.

FOR GREAT IS YOUR LOVE TOWARD ME;

YOU HAVE DELIVERED ME FROM THE

DEPTHS OF THE GRAVE.

HAVE A PRAISE FILLED SUNDAY!!

WELCOME TO THANKFUL THURSDAY - JUNE 24, 2010

*

EVENING.............. 

SWEET ENCOURAGERS

AND

WELCOME TO THANKFUL

THURSDAY.............

*

I TRUST YOU HAVE HAD A GOOD WEEK

 IN SPITE OF ALL THOSE LIL ANNOYING OR

 AGGRAVATING DETAILS THAT TRY THEIR

BEST TO RUN OFF WITH OUR JOY!!

*

I REALLY BELIEVE WE HAVE TO BE

DETERMINED NOT TO LET THAT HAPPEN,

CAUSE THE ENEMY HAS AN ARSENAL 

OF JOY STEALERS TO THROW OUR WAY!! 

 DO I HEAR AN AMEN TO THAT!! 

*

*

THERE USED TO BE A BOOK CALLED

"IF LIFE IS A BOWL OF CHERRIES,

THEN WHY AM I ALWAYS IN THE PITS!

*

I BOUGHT SOME CHERRIES LAST

 WEEK AND WHILE I WAS MUNCHING

ON THEM I WAS THINKING ABOUT

THE BOOK TITLE I JUST MENTIONED

AND THE THOUGHT CAME TO ME,

"LIFE MAY NOT ALWAYS BE A BOWL

OF CHERRIES, BUT WE SHOULD DO

ALL WE CAN TO STAY OUT

 OF THE PITS!!"

*

( DISCLAIMER:  BEFORE YOU WANT TO TAR 

AND FEATHER ME, LET ME SAY I AM NOT

 TALKING ABOUT A PERSON WHO IS TRULY

 GRIEVING OVER A DIVORCE, OR THE LOSS

 OF A LOVED ONE OR PET, OR NEWS ABOUT A

SOME PERMANENT PHYSICAL PROBLEM OR

 SOME TRAGIC CIRCUMSTANCE.)

*

SO THAT IS WHY MY 

#1 

THANKFUL IS

*

I AM THANKFUL

 FOR THESE THANKFUL THURSDAY

POSTS.   SINCE I HAVE LEARNED THAT

 BEING THANKFUL IS TRULY A PATHWAY

TO MORE JOY, THEY ARE MY WEEKLY

 DISCIPLINE TO STAY OUT OF THE PITS.

THEY MAKE ME THINK AND DIG DEEP

AT TIMES, AND THE LORD IS ALWAYS

FAITHFUL TO HELP ME FIND THINGS

TO PRAISE HIM FOR.

*

#2

I AM THANKFUL

FOR WHAT A SOLACE OF PEACE, QUIET,

BEAUTY AND BLESSING OUR BACKYARD

 IS TO ME AND HUBBY.  I JUST CAME IN FROM

SITTING OUT THERE BY MYSELF, AND THINKING
A BIT (HUBBY HAD AN ELDERS MEETING 
TONIGHT).  ANYWAY  I ALSO WANT TO TELL

YOU WHY, IT IS ESPECIALLY A BLESSING!! 
BECAUSE IT WAS COMPLETELY DEMOLISHED
AFTER HURRICANE CHARLIE WENT THRU
 HERE 6 YRS. AGO.......CHARLIE SPAWNED A
 TORNADO THAT TOUCHED DOWN ON THE
LOT RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO US, IT TWISTED
 OFF THE TOPS OF ALL THE TALL PINE TREES
AND THREW THEM ALL IN OUR BACKYARD.
IT LOOKED LIKE A WAR ZONE, I HAD NEVER
 SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT THIS UP CLOSE AND
PERSONAL.  ALONG WITH THAT, CAME THE 
REALIZATION THAT IF THAT TORNADO HAD
 TOUCHED OVER JUST  A WEE BIT MORE,
 WE MIGHT NOT BE HERE.

#3

I AM THANKFUL

 FOR THE SIGHTS I GET TO VIEW IN MY

BACKYARD; DRAGON FLYS DARTING 

BACK AND FORTH, BIRDS FLYING

 OVERHEAD AND CARDINALS INTO 

TREES NEARBY , THE LUSH GREEN

 BEAUTIFUL WOODS THAT SURROUND ME,

  BOUGANVILLA BLOOMING IN 2 SHADES

 OF PINK, HOT PINK AND PALE PINK AND 

YELLOW, ALONG WITH GOLDEN YELLOW 

LANTANA, AND HOT PINK ROSES,

AND OF COURSE, A BEAUTIFUL BLUE

CLOUDLESS SUNNY SKY.

*

*
#4

I AM THANKFUL

FOR THE SOUNDS I GET TO HEAR THAT

ARE SO RELAXING AND REFRESHING;

FROGS CROAKING, CRICKETS CRICKING

OR WHATEVER THAT NOISE IS THEY MAKE,

BIRDS SINGING, A PLANE FLYING OVER,

THE NEIGHBOR RUNNING HIS BOAT, WELL

TRUTHFULLY I COULD HAVE PASSED ON 

THAT ONE, BUT FORTUNATELY, IT DIDN'T

LAST TOO LONG.

*

#5

I AM THANKFUL

FOR THE COOL BREEZE  AND THE SUNSETS

THAT WE NOW HAVE OUT BACK BECAUSE OF

 HURRICANE CHARLIE , HE TOOK OUT ALL
 OUR TALL PINE TREES AND OUR SIDE
 WOODS, BUT THE LORD GAVE US SUNSETS
AND BREEZES THAT MAKE IT WONDERFUL
 TO SIT OUT THERE IN THE EVENING
 AFTER THESE SWELTERING

HOT FLORIDA DAY TEMPERATURES.

*

#6

I AM THANKFUL

WE NOW HAVE INSURANCE, IT FINALLY

KICKED IN THIS WEEK.  YEAH!!  LOL

*

#7

I AM THANKFUL

HUBBY HAD A PHONE INTERVIEW

AND IT WENT WELL,  BUT THEY EMAILED

HIM TODAY AND SAID HE HAD A VERY

GOOD RESUME AND GREAT SKILLS

BUT  DID NOT FIT THE POSITION

THEY WERE TRYING TO FILL..

IT IS ALWAYS NICE TO AT LEAST

HAVE SOMEONE BE INTERESTED.

THAT DID NOT HAPPEN AT ALL LAST

TIME UNTIL 9 MONTHS OUT OF WORK.

*

#8

I AM THANKFUL

HUBBY WAS NOT BUMMED BY THAT,

IN FACT, I THINK WE WERE BOTH

A LIL RELIEVED  THIS WAS NOT THE 

LORD'S CHOICE FOR HIM AS IT WAS 

A LONG COMMUTE,  AND WE ARE

 PRAYING FOR SOMETHING CLOSER 

TO HOME.

*

*
#9

I AM THANKFUL

THAT I HAVE GOTTEN RID OF A 

TON OF MAGAZINES,  AND TAKEN

A LOT OF NEAT PICTURES. CLEAN
UP IS GOING WELL.

*

#10

I AM THANKFUL

WE ALL HAD SUCH A NICE TIME

TOGETHER ON FATHER'S DAY,

AND I THINK JIMMY REALLY 

FELT LOVED ON.

*

#11

I AM THANKFUL

FOR ALL MY SWEET BLOGGY

FRIENDS THAT HAVE BEEN SO

CONCERNED AND HAVE PRAYED

 FOR US.  

THAT MEANS SO  VERY MUCH!!

*

#12

I AM THANKFUL

THAT THE LORD IS TEACHING ME

PATIENCE WITH THIS ARM SITUATION.

IT IS SOME BETTER, JUST TAKING IT'S

SWEET TIME, I MUST SAY!!
(THIS ONE IS A SACRIFICE OF PRAISE)
AFTER ALL, THE LORD SAYS TO GIVE
 THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES,
 THIS IS HIS WILL FOR US
(1 tHESSALONIANS 5:18)

*

*
(I CALL THIS MY TRAIL TO NO WHERE)
*

GUESS WHAT???  I AM FEELING
 MORE JOYFUL ALREADY!!

*

HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A LOVELY

AND PEACE FILLED WEEKEND.

*

THANKS FOR JOINING ME TODAY

*

GREETINGS SWEET FRIENDS,

*

HOPE TODAY FINDS YOU WELL AND HAPPY

AND

FULL OF ENERGY AND ENTHUSIASM!!

*

AM HAVING A FAIRLY PRODUCTIVE DAY:

GETTING SOME BUSINESS PHONE CALLS 

DONE , AND GOING THRU SOME OLD

MAGAZINES AND FILING ONES I WANT 

TO KEEP AND PITCHING EVERYTHING ELSE.

*

DON'T YOU JUST LOVE CLEANING STUFF

OUT???  I HAVE BEEN GOING TO DO IT FOR

 AWHILE BUT JUST NEVER GOT TO IT, SO 

SINCE I WAS BORED CAUSE OF MY ARM

LIMITATIONS YESTERDAY, I THOUGHT,

 LORD, THERE MUST BE SOMETHING 

PRODUCTIVE I CAN DO OR I MIGHT LOSE

MY MIND SOON, AND THE MAGAZINES 

CAME TO MIND.  I HAVE ALSO TAKEN SOME 

PICS OF PRETTY THINGS I FOUND........

MOSTLY FLOWERS, OF COURSE !!

*

I DECIDED TO DO A TABLESCAPE  

THURSDAY POST FOR TODAY.

*

AND NO, THIS ISN'T HUBBIES TIE,

IT IS HIS FATHER'S DAY TABLE

NAPKIN.

*

CUTE, HUH!!

HUBBY WAS IMPRESSED!!

*

*

HERE'S  THE SPECIAL GUYS PLACE!!

*

I DECIDED TO GO WITH A MOVIE  THEME

SINCE HUBBY LOVES WATCHING MOVIES 

AT HOME OR IN THE THEATRE.

*

I MADE THR LIL MARQUEE SIGN

AND THE TICKETS YOU'LL SEE

WITH PRINTMASTER.

*

*

HERE IS AN OVERVIEW OF THE MOVIE

VIGNETTE,  STACK OF DVD'S, POPCORN

(OF COURSE) WHAT IS A MOVIE WITHOUT

 POPCORN, IBC ROOTBEER, DARK CHOCOLATE

 (OF COURSE) HAVE TO BE HEART HEALTHY.

*

LATER I WAS THINKING I SHOULD HAVE

 USED COKE CAUSE IT WAS MORE

 COLORFUL, OH WELL!! LOL

*

*

FROM OPPOSITE END OF TABLE

*

*

THE STARS CAUSE HE IS THE STAR OF THIS SHOW!!

*

*

AND HE USUALLY  DOES KNOWS BEST!!

*

THIS PHOTO WAS ALTERED WITH

PHOTOSHOP CUT OUT AFFECT.

*

*

AND OF COURSE, ALL DINNERS NEED

A BIT OF AMBIANCE.

*

*

FILMGRAIN AFFECT, JUST FOR FUN

AND INTEREST!!

*

*

PICTURE WITH PALETTE KNIFE AFFECT.

TICKET SAID, "MY FATHER, MY BROTHER AND ME"

*

*

THIS TICKET WAS AT MY SON'S PLACE.

THESE WERE THE TICKETS I MADE ON

PRINTMASTER, THEN I LOOKED UP NAMES

 OF MOVIES THAT SEEMED TO BE POSITIVE

 ABOUT FATHER'S, AND TYPED THEM ON,
THEN CUT THEM OUT.
*
  I WANT TO TRY AND RENT THEM IN THE
 NEXT FEWS MONTHS

 AND SEE IF WE REALLY LIKE

 ANY OF THEM.  

*

*

THIS AFFECT IS PLASTIC WRAP

*

*

BET YOU CAN'T GUESS WHOSE PLACE

THIS WAS????

**

*

THIS WAS AT MY  MY DAUGHTER'S PLACE,

BUT IT COULD HAVE JUST AS WELL BEEN

AT MY SON'S, CAUSE THEY ARE BOTH SO

MUCH LIKE MY HUBBY IN  TEMPERATE.

*

*

THAT TICKET SAYS "FATHER OF THE BRIDE".

WE HAVE SEEN BOTH I AND II.  THEY ARE

GREAT MOVIES IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THEM.

I THINK THE LANGUAGE IS GOOD...... BUT

 I HAVE TO BE CAREFUL CAUSE WE HAVE

 A TV GUARDIAN THAT BLIPS OUT THE

CURSING, SO WE FORGET THAT CAUSE WE

 NEVER HEAR IT.

 AND WE LOVE IT, I MIGHT ADD.

*

*

THE END TO A GREAT DAY!!

 EXCITING JUST TO  HAVE SOME INTEREST

 CAUSE USUALLY IT IS A TEST IN SOME

 WAY OR ANOTHER........SO WE ARE WAITING

TO SEE IF THAT MIGHT BE THE CASE

 THIS TIME.  WE'LL SEE...........

I THINK HUBBY HAD A REALLY FUN AND

 ENJOYABLE FATHER'S DAY.  BOTH OUR
