Cover Me With A Duvet
WENT THRIFTING because the store was open. I was on my way to do laundry and saw the THRIFT STORE wide open. Went around the block, parked the car and went inside.
On the floor was a large decorative pillow sitting by a bag of bedding. Caught my eye. Pretty mute colors of blue and green blended together. Two pillows, 2 King size shams, 1 European sham and duvet cover for $10.
Brain Fog kicked in as I had already forgotten that everything in the store was 1/2 off. SIGNs on the front windows said so. $10 becomes $5 just like that. Looked the duvet cover over. No spots, stains or rips/snags. Smelled fresh. Cha-ching... out the door I went a happy camper with thrift purchase in my arms.
Went to do laundry at the mat washing two loads of towels, but will dry the loads over at the Cottage where I have a working dryer. Got a short nap in as I laid on the sofa with my feet up. Polished two silver plate pieces with Wright's SILVER CREAM. This stuff works like a charm and there's just something so weird about me that likes the process of seeing the tarnished metal turn so shinny it sparkles.
One of the pieces is a Christopher Wren by WALLACE. I was not familiar with this company so I looked it up on the internet and I have a very nice piece for as little as $5. RESALE was much higher elsewhere.

| Years Ago |
We went to GAMBINO's for supper as we were in the neighborhood. Driving past the old house brought back sweet memories as I could see the green popping through the flowerbed ground. The green leaves of Day Lillies, Crocus, Hyacinth, Tulips are raising up. I know that we can once again have flowers at the PRAIRIE HOUSE. Will be working on this.
TIME TO SIP some organic coffee. This afternoon, I will work on transforming the MASTER BEDROOM. Different bedding and lace panels in the windows.
A fresh start to SPRING,

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~
PSALM 90:12
SO
TEACH us
to number OUR days,
that we may apply our HEARTS
unto
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
