The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Psalm 19:1
A Dandy Good Morning
to You Sweet Friends,
Hope this finds you having an
energetic week!
Mine has been, fun and energetic,
and we had our lil darling twice
this week,and I was not nearly as
wiped out as I typically am with just
the one day, so must be one of my
better weeks!
Thank Heavens!!
Do you experience that?
where some weeks you just have all
sorts of energy then you also have a
week or so where you feel like someone
took a vacuum cleaner and sucked all
the life out of you?? Thought that would
go away after passing menopause,
but...... it is still alive and well......lol
Do think it doesn't last as long as it
used too.........I used to feel like I had
about 1 good week a month, and that
week I felt like I could conquer the
world, only to find the next week I
felt like I couldn't even conquer my
house..............lol
Ahhhhhhhhhh, Life..........
with all it's ebbs and flows....
it does teach one how to take one
day at a time, which is how we are
suppose to do life anyway!! lol
Added the rest of my pictures from
Asheville, N.C.for your viewing pleasure.
That wonderful sunset we caught as
we were leaving Carrabas after dinner,
it was just such a glorious sky we all
took a turn at trying to capture it.
Below that gorgeous sky was the
interstate which we captured as well,
and had to crop, the reason the pics
are so skinny!! lol the rest of the
pics are from other streets in Dee
and Jerry's neighborhood. Just
in case you don't know, if you
click on one pic it will enlarge
them all, and they look mucho
better enlarged!! lol
Well...... on to Thankful Thursday.
I am thankful
#1
that one of our sweet Sunday School
students saw a need in a family that
is having a tough time, and brought
it to the attention of our class......
giving us all an opportunity to
respond and minister to that need.
Just love seeing that maturity in
these young people and once again
seeing them own their own group.
Good Stuff!
#2
that Dee, Megan and the Baby got
home safely from 2 separate trips over
the weekend. Dee with friends, and
Megan and lil darling with her family.
#3
for my Special Mug I received for
Mother's Day from the kids. It puts
a smile on my face every time I use
it.........I pour hot coffee in a black
mug, then in just a few seconds I
get to see all my most favorite
people in the whole world!
Love it!!

music when I was in my early years,
but love it now, course, I only listen
to in every now again, but just love
his music.

see developing in our lil darling.
It just lights up our life listening

for my wonderful home of 34 years.

us this in so many places in His
word, the Bible.

where it is....just so refreshing and
enjoyable to behold.

a fun idea..........so hubby and I

for some much needed rain yester-
day, it has been raining all around
us for a week or so, but we have
hardly gotten any. The only reason
our yard is not burned up is because
it has been so overcast most of
those days. Thank the Lord!

Hello Nellie Dearest. What a precious week you've had. I wonder if you would do me the honour of sharing this post at my Five Star Frugal linkup which has been resurrected after a bit of a sabbatical due to family commitments. You know you'd be welcomed with open arms! Love, Mimi xxx

Nellie, Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a nice comment. My husband and I have been married 47 years this month. I guess you could say that's the reason I have an antler. It's all about give and take. We have 6 granddogs, 3 grandkids, 1 dog, and 3 grown kids. I love your gratitude list! Gratitude always makes one feel so blessed in all we have.
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased you shared this uplifting post with us at Five Star Frugal Nellie. Thankyou and blessings, dearest. Love, Mimi xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Nellie, I enjoyed reading your post. We have heard how powerful the movie "Do you believe" is and I hope to watch it this weekend! I will be following your blog. Thanks, Sherry@savvyapron
