SPENT the day tinkering about this HOMESTEAD. CHRISTMAS is fast approaching in which I have to get much accomplished before the week of Christmas brings LOVED ONES to our HOME.
TODAY, I cleared out one of my curio cabinets and replaced the glass with my dolls. Not all fit. Not sure what I will do about this. It has been like we are relocating all over again. ONE thing leads to another. The crystal cannot all fit into one curio cabinet, so I had to make some executive judgment calls quickly. The corner cabinet in the Family room can be emptied after the Kitchen is completed. Until that happens I will have to move some of my crystal upstairs for a hold pattern mode. Snowball effect.
Thumbed through some paperwork, old greeting cards went into a old suitcase, bundled letters stayed bundled. Viewed some unmarked videos to decide what to do with them. More paperwork gone through. One load of laundry done. Three LARGE Christmas gifts wrapped. BUDGET reviewed. Prayer time. Tossed a dying plant and swept the floor where it sat. Gathering photos to put in a centralized place. Took a drive and watched Lil Miss until her Mom made it HOME from work. Fixed her a snack. Worked on a CHRISTMAS LETTER. Hubby came HOME and evening brought discussion with a cheeseburger. Listened to a blogradio program about leaving churches that teach false teachings.
I was a little under the weather today which had me sighing. Sigh. Not sure if I had a migraine due to female hormones, have a sinus infection or what. Drank more water, took a couple over the counter migraine pills. Got through.
Info-commercial is on the late night TV. I have a crush on this country western music. These classics are from the 50s and 60s. It's funny how many of the songs I remember and yet I own none of this music. hum. Will need to find a radio station that plays these classics.
Last night we took a drive looking at the Manhattan Christmas lights and it was....magical.
Time's a ticking.
Gotta run!

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.
By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding
it is established;
through
knowledge
its rooms are filled with rare
and beautiful treasures.
SALVATION
Romans 10:9 King James Version (KJV)
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Acts 4:12 King James Version (KJV)
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
"HOME is a wonderful place to LIVE. No matter the size of the rooms, ones HOME is a place to call ones own. I so LOVE my HOME." ~Deanna~
PSALM 90:12

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
