Cooler Breeze With Grey Skies

OCTOBER FIRST ARRIVED!  Autumn is in the air while I'm blinking that September flew right on by me.  It flew just like August did.  The Autumn garage sale is out of the way.  End of an era.  Not sure I'll ever have another garage sale.  SO we celebrate that this might have been the last one to put on.  I like going to them way better than putting them on.


Yesterday, in the morning I watched a Grandson run cross country via internet which was neat to do while I sat in my own living room.  They can't hear you cheering them on, but I can watch as he runs past the phone his Dad is capturing all the excitement on.

Then physically watched one of our grandchildren play her first game of middle school volleyball, went to Topeka to drop off another car load of boxes at a thrift store, shop for fabric for a couple of parlor chairs, eat at Sugar Creek Deli and rest at HOME.

MOVIE TIME:



I get a kick out of how actresses are dressed up to look like an ordinary person in a movie verses how they really look in the limelight.  Jane Fonda (79) especially.  We watched the latest Netflix movie she is in starring with ROBERT REDFORD (81).  That means that Jane turns 80 years old in December I think it is.


~Our Souls At Night~
NOT BAD FOR A HIP AND KNEE REPLACEMENT PATIENT
"Can you feel the burn?"
As Jane used to ask on her exercise albums as I exercised along with her when I was a young Momma at 29 years of age.  
End of another era.

Cracked open is the position of the french door that leads to the screened in porch.  A cool breeze is gently blowing into the rest of the house as I surf the internet.  Truthfully, I spend way too much time on this contraption.  Hooked and addicted to this internet portal that is my passport to a world outside of my HOME.

Tis quiet inside our HOME today as I rest and wait to go to the COTTAGE across the county line to do a load of laundry as my Husband mows the lawn before it rains.  I'd rather stay put.  Sometimes I get so tired of going that it's difficult to move in the direction of laundry not to mention housework.  Still putzing through boxes that need hauled away.  Far far away from this location.

The sooner I get this house in order, the sooner it will be in order.  grins,

I'm hoping that is the end of an era on the garage sales. They were me out. Too much work for too little return. Great picture of grandson on the 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.

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
