Well at least it was morning
when I started......
Now, don't die from Shock .....
since I am actually getting this posted
on Thursday for a change! lol
So how are ya??
Staying warm and Cozy??
Hope so..............Know many of you
might have lots of snow.....and sure
hope you have power and heat.
Decided to show you my Valentines
Mantle today. Didn't think I was
gonna do Valentine's decorating this
year, as I was just gonna go with a
Winter theme and when I got up the
morning I was starting my redo after
Christmas I happened by someones
blog who was putting lil Valentines
touches around their house, so all of
a sudden decided yea, think I will do
that!! lol Amazing how our moods
change......but I did get the best of
both worlds, as I did the family and
dining room with the Valentines
day theme and the living room in
a Winter theme........lol
The header pic I only used pink
hearts, but decided to add some
white ones too, as you will see...
It's partly traditional and partly
whimsical..............
Also, it is very hard to get good
pics due to the lighting in this
room and all the reflections.
Anywho...........
last but certainly, not least is my
last but certainly, not least is my
Thankful list, and I am gonna get
right on with it, or I might be late
again.............lol
right on with it, or I might be late
again.............lol
I am thankful
#1
that my house is back in order
and hubby and I are enjoying the
new look.
new look.
#2
that we had a great time with
Scott, Megan and the baby
on Sunday.
#3
that my order from Walmart
with the items I got to use for
card making arrived, and think
I will like the new products,
with a lil practice.

#4

Garden magazine came today.

beginning to wonder!! lol

#5
that we are having weather in
the 60's again, and loving it.
#6
for a really good movie we
watched, that is based on a
true story.....called Dolphin
Tale. Very enjoyable, and
family friendly.
#7
that we live in America, even
with all her problems, I don't
know of any place else I would
want to live, and just happened
on this verse this morning.
Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord;
happy are the people he has chosen
for his own!
Psalm 33:12 (Good News Translation)
Our nation seems to be moving
away from God as our Lord,
and I am thankful that there are still
plenty of folks
who want and support that.
with posterized affect
#8
that our lil darling wound up being
good all day, other than first thing
in the morning she was a lil testy,
but then was fine till I changed her
last diaper before Mommy came,
it was like wrestling a bear, mostly
because she took a very early nap
and was exhausted.
Megan said when she brought her
that she had been a handful since
Sunday, and they are thinking she
might have finally hit the terrible
twos....we are all hoping not....lol
but do know it is a possibility since
she will be two in a lil over a month.
#9
for heat to take the chill off the
house when we have these cold
snaps, and warm jammies.
#10
that I also have a home and a nice
comfy bed to sleep in, cause many
times I think about those that are
homeless and how awful that has
to be.........which also makes us
have the desire to give to the
Rescue mission.
#11
That Jerry, my SIL, got to and
from his trip to a work seminar
safely, and that my son got to
a work show safely. Both were
out of state...one flying,
one driving.
#12
for the truth I shared about attitude
on Monday's post....as I got tested
on it today.
You see, my daughter
was trying to come here to visit
on Feb. 6th from Asheville, N.C.
and she found out today that she
can't get off from work that day,
so now she isn't coming, and we
are both really bummed about it.
Was very sad and had a lil melt
down and was frustrated, and
laid down for awhile and talked
to the Lord about it, and realized
that I need to be thankful that
she only lives in Asheville, not
half way around the world, and
that we will get to see each other
in March, Lord willing, and that
we get to either talk via phone
or email most days. Course, we
all know face to face is better,
especially if your love language
is quality time, which mine is,
but praying and getting that
perspective has helped and
I am feeling joyful again.
So.....it just reminded me again
that God's ways really do work.

Well, hope you enjoyed your visit
today, and hope you come again
soon.
