Happy Birthday, dear friend!! That is a great palindrome. My first graders used to love that 'big' word! And now I can use it for something other than "calendar talk"!

If you'd be so kind as to send me your mailing address, I'd love to send something your way! rejoice80701@yahoo.com

Have a great day! May God grant you many more days and fill your heart with peace and happiness. ♥♫

Happy birthday! Hope you have the best day...and year ever!!!

Age is just a number...it's the attitude with which you live your life that determines your "true" age. 55 was the "turning point" in my life. That's when I REALLY became creative. There is something freeing about...not sure what it is, but I have heard the same thing from many friends...

Many, many blessings, dear friend.
Hugs,
Jane (artfully graced)

Happy Birthday Sweet D!

I'm glad that I am not the only one in the house now that has hit the double-nickel. (Yes, I know, you will never be as old as I am).

Love you,

Happy Birthday, Deanna! I know what you mean about those "milestone" birthdays -- they always come as a bit of a shock, even though we've had time to prepare for them (as much as one CAN prepare!). Remember when we baby boomers were the younger generation? What happened???

It'll be OK; I promise! Been there, survived that! ;)

Warmest regards,
Bill

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

BLOSSOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED
As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
