Can Anyone Spell HOUSEWIFE?




H as in helper
O as in outstanding 
U as in universal
S as in superwoman
E as in ernest
W as in wonderful
I as in important
F as in fantastic
E as in efficient


HOUSEWIFE might be better spelled as HOMEMAKER.  
Keeper of the HOME. 

I am on the hunt for an old fashion dust mop.  Not having any luck finding one like I want.  It is suppose to be 80 degrees Wednesday.  Like Summer.  This would be a great day to go looking for a mop.  YEP...a mop.  






May have to try something different to get the job done.  Waalahhh...she's done.  Only if.




TRAVELING to Marion to visit my dear Mom, 
I drove alone and had a peaceful trip.  Went to help celebrate her birthday.  Her birthday gift was to be a meal out at CRACKER BARREL.  







I had to about twist her arm to go to CRACKER BARREL as she thought it was too far.  We went to visit my eldest brother on her birthday and invited him to come along.  She changed her mind and decided CRACKER BARREL it was.

We had a delicious lunch, checked out a new Goodwill store, went to Wal-Mart, Mennonite Et Cetera Shop and Dollar General.  Took Brother HOME then went back to Mom's place.  Spent the night on a very comfy air mattress.  I watched late night tv before getting sleepy.    

Next day the RETIREMENT COMMUNITY she lives in had a Birthday Party for her.  ATE CAKE with pink lemonade.  Skipped the ice-cream.  Returned HOME.  Outside of Fort Riley there was a incident where the traffic was bumper to bumper at 5 mile an hour.  The news stated that there was a large pothole that was being fixed.  Detour.



It took close to an hour to get through that area and when I finally got closer to HOME a TURKEY walked out in front of my traveling car.

Thought I was going to hit it when the big bird took to flight.  That was interesting to have happen.  It's not everyday a TURKEY struts in front of my car.  grins.   




"What does a pothole and a turkey 
have in common?"
N O T   S U R E....maybe slow down and enjoy the ride.

I was glad to get back HOME.  Will REST tonight.  Tomorrow I have to get a dust mop.  I've been looking for one for a while and no luck finding one.  The kind I'm looking for just AINT DARE ANYMORE.  Next to impossible to get the old style that I'm use to using.  WHERE ARE YOU?  A thing of the past and disappointed.  

Like when I went looking for photo albums...I was in the twilight zone looking for a foreign item that no one knew what I was looking for...WAT DAT?







~JUST A LITTLE HELP~


SPRING CLEANING CONTINUES.
IT WILL BE PLEASANT TO HAVE THIS COMPLETED.
I NEED TO BE HOME AND GET 'ER DONE.

ONE ROOM AT A TIME.
ONE ROOM,

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
