Greetings Sweet Peas..........

and how in the world are you today?


Doing finer than frog hair??
(That is hubbies saying)


I sure hope you are!!


I have had a good rest of the week, and have been on the tellie 
most of the day, which is very unusual for me these days, but
leads me to
my 
#1
I am thankful

for telephones.............imagine life without them...........

taking days on end to get a letter or have someone come

 to give you information. Hard to just remember what it was

 like before cell phones even, imagine life without the landline

 connection or a cell.................Whoa..........

No thanks!! lol

Cause it is a great way to catch up or just to check in with
someone,  especially if you or  they are laid up or sick
 and can't get out.  Now with skype it is even becoming
more amazing.  I have not skyped as of yet,  but only
heard about it,  but imagine it is really quite nice!

I am thankful

for the lovely visit we had with Scott and Megan

this passed weekend.  She is having her wisdom
teeth removed tomorrow, so if you feel so led
please pray for her.

#3

I am thankful

for the lovely time we had with Dee and Jerry this week
 as well.  Dee will at long last be finished with school with her
 BA degree in Radiology next week,  and we are so proud and

 excited for her,  she will be like a bird out of it's cage!!  lol
Guess we need to plan something to celebrate.....that fact,
has eluded me until today!!  Guess just too much other stuff
going on at the same time.....................

I am thankful

that Dee and Jerry are doing so well.  They and 

God have been very busy these last 2 weeks.

#5

I am thankful

that I had 2 nice chats with our Sweet Friend

Becky from over at Junk to Joy this week,
and might actually get to visit in person tomorrow.

That would be a very nice treat!

#6

I am thankful

for the awesome message our Youth Pastor preached

on Sunday,  and the impact it had on everyone.
It was about the fruit of the spirit, and about living 
by the spirit rather than by the flesh.  He just made
so many excellent points.

#7

I am thankful
we are going to a Kirk Cameron Seminar on Sat.
evening called "love worth fighting for".  I think it
should be really good,  cause we saw Fireproof
and also did their marriage material for Sunday 
School a while back.

#8
I am thankful
for all the neat things God teaches us about
 himself and living life down here on planet earth.
He never runs out of things to teach us,  and we
 never run out of things to learn,  that is for sure.


#9
I am thankful

hubby cut my hair last night,  it makes me feel perky

and well groomed!!  Don't we ladies just feel so

 great when we feel our hair looks good.

Amazing Really!  Such a simple thing, but it

brings us so much pleasure.....

#10
I am thankful
for clothes to wear....anything from jammies,
to shorts and tops to dresses, and cute shoes.
They make life fun.....and keep us looking
presentable!!  lol

#11
I am thankful

I got to visit with a long time friend this evening,

haven't really seen her since the weddding but we

 have talked on the phone.....so it was great to see
her in person.  Lovely visit with a lovely lady.
She is such a sweetie!

#12

I am thankful
for all the beautiful pictures that I see like the ones here,
 and that you take,  that I see all over at many blogs,
  they are just so creative, fun, and pleasant to look at.....
Just visual delights or eye candy!!
Just lifts your spirit to see them........

Well, Sweet Friends that is my list of 
thankfuls for this week,  hope you have

Have a Mildly Wild Weekend! lol


See ya Monday...........


Love, Hugs
and Blessings Galore,
