No Foolin It's April Fools Day


Hello Beloved! So nice of you to come by for a spell. What 'cha been up to?
It's April 1st and this always puts a smile on my face.
Happy Happy April Fool's Day to you.

As a kid, this was a day to play a practical joke on somebody. Not out of meanness, but out of awnriness. Did you know that awnry isn't in the dictionary? Perhaps this is a April Fool's joke? Naw.

Ornery can be found, but I don't like the definition described in the New World Webster's Dictionary of the American Language, 1. Having an ugly or mean disposition. Sooooo, I will use awnry as I thought it was meant to be, having a sense of humor and teasing. All out of good fun, being a good sport.

What do you think awnry means?

I've been known to pull off a practical joke or two. All in good fun. How sad it would be if we couldn't have a good laugh or giggle. It helps if the one that you play the joke on isn't offended by it or seriously harmed.

My husband takes his job very seriously and I think this to be a good thing.
At the time, we lived about a 5 minute drive from his work location. Wasn't that nice. Small towns can have their advantages.

On one April Fool's Day, I decided since he was overly uptight about one of the bosses he had, that to help my hubby lighten up abit, I'd play a trick on him. Knowing he would be home soon, I left a note in the kitchen saying that work had called and they were wondering where he was for the late meeting they were having.

He immediately went back to work to find no one there. HUH? NOW, PLEASE DON'T BE TOO HARD ON ME. We had a healthy laugh over this one. AND we needed it.

It's possible to get way too much on the mind and make life miserable. On a different day, while at work he phoned home, thinking it was a co-worker's home he was calling. Out of habit, he dialed our home number. When I answered, he thought I was the co-worker's wife and asked if so and so was there. I thought, my gosh, he doesn't recognize my voice or he is thinking a man is visiting me during the day when he shouldn't be. So, I played along and said something to him that made his jaw drop. He got very quiet and I started to laugh. Then he realized that he had called our number. We still have a good laugh over this one and this happened 23 years ago.

A fool is described as a person with little or no judgment, no common sense, no wisdom, silly, or stupid person, simpleton. The Bible tells us that a fool believes that there's no God.
I know that I know that I know, that I know that I know that I know that I know, that I know
there's a God! I aint no foooool.

God Bless Us One and All. If you are having difficulty believing there's a God, it would help if God made himself real to you. So get serious and be real with Him. Ask Him to make Himself real to you. My prayer for you
IN JESUS NAME is that the Holy Spirit fall a fresh on you and open your eyes of understanding and become a child of the Most High God today! No foolin'.

God richly bless you.
May you have a great day and be kind to those awnry people in your life and home.

Til next time,

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.

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
