JIBBER JABBER






This past week I was able to travel to where my Parents live and help celebrate my dear Dad's 89th Birthday at a party.  
He no longer knows me, but still has a very sweet disposition.  At present I am not lingering on the fact that he doesn't know me.  I know him and kiss him on the forehead.  Tell him, "Hi Dad."
Always, ready for a smile.


HAPPY when we sang HAPPY BIRTHDAY!







After putting off buying PUMPKINS before Halloween....I ran into a problem where I couldn't find PUMPKINS for sale.  They went so fast this year.  The local Grocery Store where my Mom and Dad live had some, so I bought two of them and now they sit proudly on my front porch just in time for THANKSGIVING. 

What would my THANKSGIVING be like without PUMPKINS on my porch?  Alright, missed.  I would be VERY disappointed if we did not have PUMPKIN PIE to eat as well as DRESSING at meal time.  My Thanksgiving meal isn't complete without these.  TURKEY OF COURSE, but if I don't get DRESSING....it's not pretty.




I overheard one dear Lady tell another Lady how she gets her Christmas cards filled out right after THANKSGIVING.  I think I really ought to address the envelopes and sign the cards in July, leaving the envelopes open to insert a Christmas letter in December.  The last few years I have ran way behind on getting these mailed out.  Praying to do this earlier this year.  Lil Miss get 'er done here.

We still continue to go through our STUFF.  This will be put on hold after this week-end so we can concentrate on THANKSGIVING, CHRISTMAS and NEW YEARS.  

Then back to the grind of ALL THINGS NEAT and accounted for.  TAKING months to conclude.  It's the Season Of Life I am in.  Better now than later.

I know...I move so much slower these days I have to plan way ahead.  This is doable and I am alright with it so long as the finished results are good.  Grins. 

Hopefully the discounted Tulip Bulbs purchased will make their way into the ground this week-end.  Come SPRING there should be WHITE TULIPS to greet me in the flowerbed.  SPRING.....deep sigh with smile on my face.  Spring.  Sweet thought.

COLD WEATHER is moving in with the wind.  Today there was a earthquake on the Kansas border.  A few days ago, I felt one as I was up late my back began to vibrate.  Wondered if it was an earthquake.  It was and now today another one.  Interesting to say the least.  Quaking.  

My THANKSGIVING Menu is written out and I will do my finishing touches and shopping this week-end.  LORD willing.

I have been thinking about what I am THANKFUL for.  The list is long and gets longer with each passing year.  Thankful.  

THANKFUL.  White Christmas is playing on the radio as I enjoy typing on the computer.  Perhaps it will be a white Christmas.  I'd like that.     

MAY YOU HAVE A NICE WEEK-END,
d

Don't want to think about Christmas yet. Can't believe that is is already that time of year. I have at least bought my Grand children's presents.

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.”

through

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
