If we were to visit about what happens after death, would more people take their eternity seriously? That question of where will you be the moment after you take your last breath is NOT a crowd pleaser. Have you noticed?
Life moves forward.
Watched the 2006 television movie MOLLY: An American Girl On The Home Front with Lil Miss. Loved it. A great Family Movie with a good story line. I would recommend. I felt like I was transported back to 1943 for a PURPOSE. Gentle.
Will watch again. Have you seen it?
Adjusting this past week to getting back in the routine of rising early to get Lil Miss taken to school before 8 AM, my 'ole body has felt the pangs of getting super tired by mid afternoon just in time for picking Lil Miss up from School letting out.
We have a snack and a beverage while unwinding from the busy day. I always ask how her day has gone.
I needed to go to Manhattan after school and Lil Miss wasn't HAPPY about this. Extra tired, she cried because she didn't get to go HOME after school. Snacks would be a Fudge Brownie Molten Cake Sundae and water from Sonic. I only had one bite and drank plain 'ole refreshing water with ice. Good Girl.
Played a game with her on the way. THE EYE SPY COLOR GAME was a winner and soon her tears dried up. The color of choice was RED. When she saw something RED, she was to say what it was that was RED and it couldn't be Granny's FACE. She did well. (Granny Nanny Chronicles)
After eating the Sundae, she sat back into her Booster Seat and fell asleep while I drove the distance into Manhattan to pick her Mom up from work. She slept the entire way. Stayed asleep. Hubby meet me at Hastings Book Store. Daughter with a sleeping Lil Miss went on their way. Still asleep.
Hubby and I dined at Harry's and then went to K-Marts afterwards so I could get a pillow encasement cover. About a month ago I bought a new one. The zipper had already broke. Instead of repairing the zipper, I decided to buy another cover and use this one with a broken zipper as a nice dusting cloth to clean the Master Bedroom floor next time I do serious dusting of the wood floors. It was actually nice to sit on Patio Furniture in K Marts and chat with my husband. We were basically alone and it felt like we were in the PRIVACY of our own serene backyard without the BUGS before we went to my Husband's office for the evening.
I forgot to get a package of Quilt Pins. Will have to deliberately make a trip to Jo-Ann's for these. Perhaps on Friday evening I will spend some time there shopping. I want to use these large pins when working on a Balloon Shade. I have been so slow on this project. The material is difficult to work with and I have had a bad case of the CHICKENS. I will have to ring this chicken's neck and have victory over this fear. Lord help.
I played on the computer in my Husband's Office as Hubby had an evening Conference Call at the building where he works. Drove HOME just as it was getting dark outside.
Early to bed and early to rise is comforting to some folk. I needed the early to bed.
This past week of small town America sewer work in our neighborhood is completed. 3 ATTEMPTS. We were given a notice when it would be the day that we were to not run water through our lines. Came HOME to find another notice that the date had changed. Made plans. Spent the day else where and when I returned HOME, there was another note on the door stating that it was going to be reschedule to another date. So yesterday, I made plans to be gone again. Laundry is piling up. As far as I know they completed the work and all is well. Flushing toilets are such a blessing! Flush.
This morning as I was driving Lil Miss to school, I thought to myself that this small town really is a nice quiet place to call HOME. I dropped some bills off at the Post Office, took a short drive noticing some men on a crane working on the front of the Court House doing repairs, and let the cool Autumn-like breeze blow into the car. The Church Bells chimed as I was on my way HOME.
May your day be wonderful FLUSHING away the cares of the world.
Glad you dropped by.
Happy Week-end!!!
Happy Week-end!!!

THAT movie sounds like my style! When Sarah was young, one of her gifts was a Molly doll for Christmas. She never did really play with it, but recently mentioned that it was one of her favorite dolls! I never knew that. I thought it would be her ugly Barbie dolls-can't stand them. But her most treasured doll is her big baby doll-very lifelike. Brady can wear a 12 month size. Small towns are the best, but I think yours is larger than mine!♥♫
PS-I can relate to the early to bed business!! And some days I even take a wee nap.♥
Your friend is not the only person to be deceived by a false belief, as you know. All the more sad. We have a world that is so eager to grab hold of anything. Funny to me, and as you know I spent almost 7 years in womens' prison ministry, how some people can believe what they do and not believe in God and what Jesus did for them on the cross. We have no hope in anything else.
You're right. We should talk about our eternal future and the hope we have when we get together with friends. We'll find out they are saved, they don't want to be saved, or we won't get invited again. :D
Hugs friend,
Debbie

That movie looks like I would love, it's my kind of watch! I will get it son to see it at home. I can't believe it's school time again and parents and grandparents have to wake up early for another school year! Yes, friends are wonderful sweet Deanna and when they leave us it's the saddeest, but than again, they go back to Paradise, just where they came from...to our Father's home, once again! Hva e ablessed week.
