Day Nineteen
Wintery day today as I drove my car down an old highway to a neighboring town to go to a Hair Salon. Needed a wash and a trim. The countryside looked like an oil painting of greys, browns and burnt oranges. The reddish rubble in the fields makes for a beautiful sight. Cattle grazed in the open fields not noticing the rain.
My drive was pleasant. My hair appointment went well. Afterwards I drove over to a favorite thrift shop where I bought a little porcelain doll that resembles Shirley Temple. Just a dollar. Thought she was cute. Bought a few items as I noticed a Williamsburg chandelier with fabric shades that will make a room more lovely as it will be a crowning beauty.

I bought the chandy. We will find a new location for her as I felt the need to buy her for some reason. SHINE BRIGHT.
I drove HOME. Raining.
Looking out across the Flint Hills admitting that it has a calming affect on me. Calms me seeing the open spaces. It truly is a beautiful sight to see firsthand.
Sweet Husband fixed goulash for us for supper. Delicious HOT meal on this cold day. Added some sugar to the goulash to take the edge off of the tomato's acid. A neat trick.
The Presidential Inauguration is in a few hours. How it will go we shall see. History is in the making and I wonder what the new First Lady will wear.
I suspect the new First Lady will be a trend setter and America will copy her hair, make-up and dress.
It might help if we knew what her favorite color is. I hear it's GOLD.
Shall we call her Mel for short?
How shallow can an old Lady get,

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~

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
