Belated Mother's Day




Howdy.
It's Monday!

A HAPPY BELATED MOTHER'S DAY.
Not everyone is a mother...but what a great day to take some time to appreciate motherhood, moms and womanhood.  
I have learned so much from being a mom.
I learned so much FROM my Mom.

My Mom is my HERO.  
A fine example of what Moms are all about.

Hubby allowed me to sleep in on Mother's Day and I woke to the Family Room being tidied, vacuumed and dusted.  
This was a pleasant surprise to wake to.  
We've both been ill with Bronchitis and I had no energy to clean.
Having the Family room cleaned made me very happy.  
I have been so runned down.  Weak.
Bronchitis hit us hard and I am tired.  21 days of this was difficult.

We walked in pleasant weather to a Restaurant 
and I had a great Salad.
Heard from all of my Kids.
Smiles.

I just opened the window for fresh air and can hear the birds singing.
Sippin' coffee and figuring out my day.
Our Irises are getting buds on them.
Seeing green leaves on the trees refreshes my soul.

School is just about finished for the school year.
In a few days, I will return to full time babysitting for the Summer.  
I hope we can take daily walks, make cookies, go play in the park, talk and play dolls.  Watch Kiddy movies.  Library visits, swimming and drawing hopefully will be a part of our lives.  

Dust will settle.

There will be naps in the afternoon...quiet time.  
Gotta love 'em.

Blessings,
d

Hi Deanna,

Happy belated Mothers day to you and I enjoyed your lovely post.
Sounds like the perfect day having the house work done and walking out to lunch.
Do hope that you feel better and will be able to relax when Little Miss is on holiday.

Happy week and look after yourself

What a sweetheart. Truly. My guy does a lot of wonderful things (and more)...but cleaning, hmmm...he might unload the dishwasher and maybe fold a load of clothes... But dusting and vac'ing without me asking would be a miracle. :)

That said...after a weekend full of parties and graduations I slept in for a change. Wonderful.

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.

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
