 us by altogether............lol

my "Fall Gifting" Winner is...................

I am waiting on hubby to get home to do the drawing,

I am thankful

for a lovely day with a sweet friend last Friday,  

we spent the day together, and it was just great!

Just the blessing I needed.

#3

I am thankful

for these lovely flowers she brought me that you

will see interspered throughout this post.

So enjoyed them all week,  and they are still going strong!

#4

I am thankful

that some spots, that looked like black grease splatters,

 that appeared on our family room rug, that we have

no idea where or how they came there,

We Were Able To Get Out!!   PTL

#5

I am thankful

for great products like Resolve carpet cleaner which

takes out just about any spot there is.............

A wonderful product!

#6

I am thankful 

for my carpet cleaner that also helped get

the spots out, and our shop vac which we had to

employ as well.  All huge blessings.

#7

I am thankful

for a fun afternoon out yesterday.  Had to go
to the chiropracter for a routine visit,  so did
some shopping by myself afterwards,  I was
shopping for items for children that are in a
 Haitian orphanage, and what fun that was,
and what a blessing to be able to do that!

Posterized of course!!

#8
I am thankful
that I decided to go wash a load of clothes this afternoon,
because between this morning and this afternoon sometime,
 my Era container sprung a leak and made a huge mess on
 top of the washer.  That happened before with our old
washer and it took the paint off the washer because
 it went unnoticed for a few days. Era is a very good
product as well,  it can get out those grass, blood and
tomato based stains.

#9
I am thankful
for the sweet time we had with Scott and Megan
on Sunday,  and the sweet time we had with
Dee and Jerry on Tuesday.

#10
I am thankful
I finally got a card off to someone today, that I have been
meaning to get to for a few weeks now.  I have been
thinking and pondering about what to say in it,  so guess
that helped with my procrastination.

#11
I am thankful
that Scott and Megan are getting to take a trip
away together for Labor Day.  Will tell you where
they went when they return.  May even have some
pics to show you!!  lol

 Another posterized shot!!  lol

#12

I am thankful

that sometime this weekend we get to go see the new apt.
where Dee and Jerry will be living when they get married.
 He is already living there, but they aren't really decorating
until after they get married,  but it will be fun to see it.

Well,  Sweet Friends................
Hope you have oodles of things
 to be thankful for, and that you share 
some of those blessings with us!!


Have a truly delightful Friday
 and Weekend!


Thanks for coming round,  and
thanks for all those sweet comments
you leave..................


Love,  Hugs, and
Rose Scented Blessings to you!
