SUMMER TIME WITH SUMMER PLANS


 Summer.  2026.  Summer plans in motion.
I already know that we will be working really hard to clearing out the two storage units we still have and a very messy garage.  Not to mention the cellar crammed full of seasonal decor.

We have our Queen size bed with mattress and box springs plus a triple dresser that will go bye bye.  The set has been in storage going on 3 years.  I can finally say good-bye and I hope you go to someone who will appreciate you.
RESTORE will bring a truck to our storage unit and haul it away.  They won't handle the mattress and box springs.  Have to go another route on this.

Several other large pieces of furniture are in one unit.  Also some chairs, a small buffet, a couple of night stands made by my husband, a curio cabinet, a tallboy, sofa, glassware, oriental end tables.

It took years to collect these pieces and it has been like pulling teeth to get to the place where I can turn loose of them.  It's been difficult, but I am getting there.

Right now Hubby is out tweaking on the headlights of our sweet ride.  I have been working on laundry, paperwork, shuffling vinyl boxes of dishes.  I think this afternoon, I'll go back over to the storage unit and bring home more dishes.  Eventually these will go to the garage until all the dishes are grouped with like kind and then I can turn loose of some more.

This is a work I cannot do very quickly for so many reasons.

I made a hair appointment for mid-week.
My colonoscopy has been scheduled for August.
Plans have been made for downsizing and turning loose of a storage unit.

Dreams and thoughts have been gyrating in my head for painting the rooms in this tiny cottage.  The biggest challenge here is prepping the room for painting.  Makes my head spin.

PLANS.  Being cautious of what I am eating.  Hydrating.  Staying active.  Resting.  Not overloading my schedule.  Devotions and prayers.  Cleaning the house and flower beds.

There is an urgency to get this estate in order and out of the chaos.
WITH GOD'S help I believe we will get there.

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
