I am glad you liked the tour of Filoli...Hi Nellie,<br /><br />I am glad you liked the tour of Filoli Gardens. I agree with you about that Butler's Pantry. So opulent, isn't it? I hope you enjoy Heaven Can Wait with that little extra history behind it.<br /><br />Sorry you missed out on Mamma Mia...be sure and reorder if you haven't seen it.<br /><br />I cannot believe how much our lives parallel each other. Right now Jim and I are also working with a young couple that is really struggling with poverty, depression, unemployment and a myriad of other things.<br />It is rewarding to be able to help a little but in this family it is multi-generational dysfunction so it is a tough one. I know you must be so good at helping the couples you are working with.<br /><br />There is a wealth of knowledge to be had for young people that will listen to the things older couple have learned, survived, etc.<br /><br />Oddly this is not all. I also love and go all out for the birthdays and holidays because we didn't have a lot of that either. My grandmother died when my mom was five and the kids were shipped from pillar to post all their growing up years. She just didn't ever have it so it was hard for her to incorporate it into our family. <br /><br />I am beginning to think we are soul mates, Nel! <br /><br />Love you....BonBonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14059667593315041564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7511667191387080514.post-28357876365195152272010-08-20T23:04:00.716-04:002010-08-20T23:04:00.716-04:00Hi Nellie, What lovely photos of the ibis and of t...Hi Nellie, What lovely photos of the ibis and of the sunset!

Ha!<br />#2. I may need some of your counseling after just one day with 2 of my kinderboys! <br />#3. Love the beach theme! Although I don't think I would want to goes to our beaches right now as hot as it is, lol!<br />#4. I surely enjoy hearing about your parties (even though I am happily apart, thank you!!!)<br />#5. Your pictures of the blue sky are gorgeous!<br />And yes, the rainbow is a really neat effect!<br />#6 & 7. I just love the birds. Since I have such an open area, I don't have too many of the insect eaters. I usually have the hawks from the lakes around the area.<br />#8. I am so glad ministries have been placed on dvds. I really like to watch John Hagee's and Jack and Rexella Van Impe's ministries.<br />#9. I don't drink coffee anymore :-( except when I come to visit you. I didn't drink that much coffee before, but my doctor told me to stay away from caffine. So, next visit, I'll try your creamer!<br />#10. I will definately be praying for Scott. It seems they have "strung" him along on this hiring. I'm sure the LORD has His reasons.<br />#11. His vacation has come at the right time for him to get ready for his new job!!<br />#12. If she doesn't get a chance to read it, we'll hold her to it next year!!<br />I love you all,<br />Susiesistersusiesayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07753668561920609089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7511667191387080514.post-74091031936923463612010-08-19T18:58:39.594-04:002010-08-19T18:58:39.594-04:00I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that Scott ...I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that Scott finally gets an answer to his prayers.

Yea for working on projects and getting them done - such a great feeling!!<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing that beach party for the birthday girl:) FUN!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02922994263280650480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7511667191387080514.post-23091085625117155062010-08-19T13:53:00.864-04:002010-08-19T13:53:00.864-04:00What a lovely post, Nellie. A thankful heart is a ...What a lovely post, Nellie. A thankful heart is a beautiful heart. And you know what, even when we don't think we have things to be thankful for, if we just pause and look around, we can easily find dozens. We learned that lesson during a long period of unemployment, when things were bleak...God led me to do a thanks journal, and I was able to be thankful even during what appeared to be very bleak times.<br /><br /> I, too, am thankful to have reconnected with you (Becky too). Truly, it was a blessing I NEVER expected.<br /><br />That sunset photo is beyond gorgeous!! I love it.<br /><br />I'm saying a quick prayer right now for your son and that job.<br /><br />And, yes, as one who lives far away from family and yet yearns to be close, I think it's amazingly wonderful that y'all were able to get together for a birthday celebration for Dee. <br /><br />You talked about being hopeful. That is why I use the username of A Hopeful Heart. As I have prayed over some impossible-looking situations, God always reminds me to "keep a hopeful heart." Hope is such an anchor word in my life...in fact, my dear husband made me a beautiful wall plaque with the word "hope" in calligraphy.<br /><br />Have a lovely day.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />PattiPatti https://www.blogger.com/profile/12931836399684850729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7511667191387080514.post-11666705552563675632010-08-19T12:48:05.909-04:002010-08-19T12:48:05.909-04:00I'm thankful for all the thankfulness that flo...I'm thankful for all the thankfulness that flows from your heart! I, too, have tackled a few projects that were "hanging over my head" -- and I am thankful for progress and completed projects (in a few instances)!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740950362293427086noreply@blogger.com
