a sign of the times


~Kansas Sky In Winter~



So many signs around us.  Know what I mean?


Still...I thought it was rude and inconsiderate 
to name call my husband and me 
when we were walking Main Street 
of Paxico, Kansas this past Sunday.
hehehehehe




GRINS....just 'cause we're in our 50s are we considered ANTIQUES???
Schutt yo mouth!  

I'd rather be known as VINTAGE or well seasoned.





Sunday, we ventured over to Paxico,
but found the store we were going to visit  CLOSED.

That's just the way the cookie crumbles.
We still had a pleasant day.


Speaking of signs of the time....



We saw a few.












Our Sunday afternoon outing was wonderful with refreshing weather.
Getting out of the house is good medicine for us 
and my
Husband is a sweetheart.









He bought me some Anchor Hocking Boopie Iced Tea Glasses made between the 1950s through 1970s.  





























Hubby took this picture by the railroad track and I liked the subtle colors in it. 
Weathered browns with grey sky.


Hoping to have a great day.
God Bless you and thanks for stopping by!

A ride on Sunday with your sweetheart. Wow it doesn't get any better than that, and then the photos. I am impressed. The picture of the wood and greys is very classic. Yes I am an antique too. Well seasoned for sure. blessings

You saw some funny signs on your little trip. I love your sense of humor girl. You make me smile!

That was a fun trip sweetheart! Need more of the same. Just driving around and snapping pictures of things that catch our interest. Paxico is a neat little town, great
stores for antiques like us to visit.

Hilarious! What a fun time you had with your hubby! I'd love to explore all those stores too. Sounds like my kind of a good time!

I have never been to Paxico or even heard of it! :( I'm so glad you and your beloved were able to get away for a bit.

I am very sad to read the news you left on my bloggie about your hubster. You KNOW I believe in prayer...and in healing...and in God's goodness. I'm praying he will be fine...and if he isn't then I will be praying for complete healing.

Your comments about my blog change meant SO MUCH to me. I'm skerd.

Love, Rebecca

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."

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

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
