Wednesday Wonder




TIS WEDNESDAY.
I'VE GOT SPRING ON MY MIND......about two weeks till the calendar says so.  I've been eyeballing the garden area thinking about when to start cleaning the bed up in prep for Spring gardens.
WENT THROUGH THE MAIL.  A credit card company would just love to have me use their company at 15.45% interest.  I don't think so.  Can you believe it?  That's highway robbery.  Close to 16% interest.  Not gonna happen.  Shred this one.  Speaking of shredding, our mortgage company is delighted to have a SHRED DAY in the near future.  They will profit from the paper they gather as they sale the shredded paper.  Aren't they smart? 
READ THE NEWSPAPER. 
WORKED ON BILLS.
WROTE OUT SOME CARDS.
MADE A FEW PHONE CALLS.  Grand has the flu again and so does her Daddy.  She was taken to the doctor today.  Daughter getting a sore throat as well and they need prayer.  Healing.
WORKED ON PAPERWORK.  Still shuffling.  Will be for awhile as I work on this ever present task.
PUT CLEAN TOWELS AWAY.
PUT CLEAN UNDIES AWAY.
HUNG SOME BLOUSES.  Thought about sprucing up my wardrobe.  Thinking about sewing.
LAUNDRY BASKET PLACED IN CLOSET WITH DIRTY LAUNDRY.
TOOK A FEW PHOTOS FOR INTEREST.
READ SOME IN LIBRARY BOOKS.
ADDED BOTTLE WATER TO THE COFFEE MAKER AND MADE SOME PERO.
DAY DREAMED.
DECORATED IN MY HEAD.
WHAT ELSE.
GOT DRESSED AND GROOMED.
GOT INTO THE CAR READY FOR RUNNING ERRANDS.  Still too cold outside.  Suppose to get even colder tonight.  Brrrrr.
DROPPED OFF SOME MAIL AT THE POST OFFICE. 
RETURNED THE VICTORIAN BOOKS TO THE LIBRARY.  Glad I saved money by using the Public Library.
PAID OUR PHONE BILL.  Early.  Made me think that 4o years ago our bill was not even $30 a month and this included rental of the phone companies actual phone equipment.  Of course we didn't have the internet then either.  I really like having access to the internet at HOME.  I can justify paying for the service though it continues to rise.
WENT TO EAT CHINESE.  Fortune cookie and all.
WENT TO DOLLAR GENERAL.  Bought a storage box for ceramic reindeer that need to go into hiding until next year.  Ready for Spring.  Spring continues.
WENT TO SERVICE STATION.  Hubby took care of car.
TOOK A DRIVE ABOUT TOWN.
WENT HOME.
UNLOADED CAR.
WORKED ON FOLLOW UP ON FATHER-IN-LAW's FUNERAL.
TAKING TIME OUT TO UNWIND.
DAY IS DONE.  Gone the sun.  Which reminds me...time change is a coming.
Felt better today, but still coughing.  Asthma.

Tomorrow will be a new day.  Lately just before I get up in the mornings, I ask myself what should I get done today?  Keeping it simple since I am still regaining my strength from having the flu and coughing fits.  Started taking vitamins again.  The chewy kind.

Until I get to feeling lots better, my exercise is walking up and down the stairs, carrying laundry and what nots.  Walking about the house doing chores and then the chores themselves.

AND I'm alright with that,

Hang in there! Warm weather will be here soon! So sorry that the grand and daddy have round #2 of flu... two of my grandsons had flu within the past couple of weeks, both had a different strain. I hope they don't swap and come down with round 2.

You did so much and it sounds like you enjoyed most of it. I love the daydream part.

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
