MAKING SENSE FROM THE MOVING MESS

🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃

ONCE AGAIN, evening came too fast.  The dark of the night took over.  It seems to come around faster than I am comfortable with.  By 5:30 it's dark.    

Being THANKFUL for so much.  A HOME WITH CREATURE COMFORTS, FAMILY, RELATIONSHIP WITH ALMIGHTY GOD, SALVATION THROUGH THE LORD JESUS, FINANCIAL INCOME SAVINGS, HEALTH, FRIENDS, FREEDOM, LIVING IN AMERICA WITH A CONSTITUTION, CREATIVITY, BOOKS, FOOD, HEALTH CARE, PRAYER, COMMUNITY and the list goes on.  Embrace this time and stay humble.  Walk upright before the LORD.  As a child of GOD through the Lord JESUS as one's personal savior, we are HIS righteousness.  AMEN.  THANKFUL that I can go boldly into the throne room of prayer and share my concerns and petitions with GOD. GRATEFUL.

THOUGHTS ON THE DAY.  A bit chilly this morning in the 30s.  Should reach in the high 50s this afternoon making for a pleasant day.  No SNOW blowing with beautiful weather. Now come next week, we may experience an arctic blast.  Best keep the parkas near AND BLANKETS IN THE CAR.    

I need to make sure I have everything ready for our Saturday meal.  I'll need to go to a grocery store for canned whipped cream to top the pumpkin pie.  Pretty sure I have most of the meal's ingredients in a box by the front door and in the fridge.  

Although I know where the serving pieces are, I will need to place them in a box and take with me.  Once I get to my daughter's I will wash all the dishes to sanitize them. 

Gathering the serving dishes and bakeware for the THANKSGIVING MEAL that we are having this week-end is going to be very challenging and interesting amongst this chaotic Kitchen MESS.  Today, I will continue working on this chaos.  Lord have mercy and please help me.

Can you make any sense out of this MESS?
An organized and clean person's NIGHTMARE.



THIS WAS NOT A CLEAN MOVE.  It was a HURRY UP AND GET OUT OF HERE ONE.  I HATE THESE.  Added chaos happens when in a hurry.  No time to neatly pack each thing then unpack.  

Tis best that THANKSGIVING
will be spent elsewhere.  

ON Sunday, repeat shopping for THURSDAY's THANKSGIVING MEAL.   

ON THE HOME FRONT.  As you can see from the Kitchen pics, it's a mess in real time.  The KITCHEN is to be conquered.  I rounded up cleaning products all in one area.  Temporarily, I will place all of these products under the kitchen sink just to get them out of sight.  LATER, and I mean later, I will do a thorough tidying.  

Then I will clear the work station which is a portable table to group ALL the pots and pans and bakeware so I see what I have to work with.  I had started putting the pans and bakeware in various drawers and cabinets, but was getting too spread out.  The Kitchen is quite small and I'll have to come up with a workable solution.  Having to figure out where the things are going to go this go round as each KITCHEN is different.

BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD...rest a bit, work a bit, rest, work.  Eventually it will be organized.  Lil Miss came over and worked in the LIVING ROOM.  She made a huge dent.  The center of the room was full of stacked boxes.  She said she'd come over again and work on the PANTRY.  I believe she will figure this out.




My temporary OFFICE is a laundry basket!  HA.


    Shall see how the day goes.
COTTAGE LIVING has begun,

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
