HOME Is Where The Dirty Laundry Is
HOME today with a Winter Advisory. 12 degrees out there on the Prairie. Wind chill 0. Brrr, tis cold. Watched gentle flakes fall. Quietly. Warm inside with the heater blowing into the rooms of our HOME. Dishwasher is running. Still in my plaid flannel housecoat. Need to get around.
I'd like to freshen up and then go to a beauty shop a couple blocks away and see if as a walk-in someone would wash my hair and style it. Think I would feel a whole lot better having it washed by another and flat ironing it. Let you know how that goes.
This morning we have been working on Dad's OBITUARY. Think we have it covered as well as the music that will be sung at funeral. This week will be what it is. Praying that next week will be a slower pace. This week originally I was going to be working in the COTTAGE going through storage tubs and shuffling about more items. Put on hold and that's fine. Plans were meant to be flexible...
Yesterday, we ventured out to a couple of Banks to do what I call BANKING BUSINESS. Drove on to the Pharmacy to copy some photos for the funeral and pick up some meds.
Went to the Health Food Store to see if they carry a certain product. They don't but we went ahead and got a bite to eat at their deli. Was hot and tasted good. Hot ham and cheese sandwich with a white tea. Just a hint of mint in the beverage.
Off to the laundromat to do some laundry. One nice thing about using the mat is we walk away with all the laundry completed hanging or folded ready to be put away.
HOME and rested.
A woman's hair is her crown of glory! I found this old pic of Jane Russell with one of those hairdos that has two sides to it.
If you cover the left side of this image you see what she looks like with a full head of hair. Imagine if both sides of her head were with full body locks. Visa versa. What say you? Which side do you like the best? That is correct!!!
DO you suppose Jane did her own laundry or someone else? I do mine and someone elses.
Bless you.
Back to the real world,

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
