Be KIND!
I CAN DO THIS!
The new year has started. Sick for two weeks drained me. Disappointing, but I took advantage of sitting and napping. Sipping fluids and being encouraged that I can survive eating different kinds of food that I don't usually eat. Far less food. It easier to cut calories when the body doesn't feel the best due to illness.
THINKING on this new year and what I need to wrap up and want to do. I'm getting to the place where I want to play more than snore, work and sweat. With being ill for two weeks, I think this attitude is formed because I am weary from illness. A type of going into survival mode.
Working is necessary to keep a household up and running. The bed sheets need washed, towels are piling up, dust has settled and paperwork continues to breed.
This week I hope to get caught up on the towels and a basket of shirts.
Sweep the Guest room floor and wash the bed sheets.
The CHRISTMAS TREE has been taken down and the other Christmas decorations placed on the dining room table to be boxed up and put away.
The sewer backed up in the basement so there is some clean up that needs to happen.
I have started going through a pile of old magazines this week to tear out articles I want to keep and then pitch the rest.
Winter projects will be deep cleaning in the all the rooms.
When the weather is better, I still have boxes of paper to go through out in the garage that were smoked damaged from the 2016 house fire.
The spare room upstairs that is full of stuff needs decluttered and cleaned out so that a new floor can be laid. If I put an hour a day into this project, it will help make the room a better place.
My OUTING THIS WEEK: I want to go see the movie LITTLE WOMEN soon on the big theatre screen.
Be KIND to yourself,

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
