Time At Our Prairie House


I heard that the snow began to fall around six this morning.  I was fast asleep and knew nothing about this until waking later in the morning.  Peace came over me when I saw the SNOW.  Meaning I would be snowed in not going anywhere today as I would stay HOME to rest.  Comfortable and cozy.    

PEACEFUL.  Quiet outside.  So pleasant.  A white blanket covers everything in sight.  Wish this was CHRISTMAS morning.  

My obligations changed as I wrapped my thick flannel housecoat about my body.  No meeting up with THE GIRLS for LUNCH to exchange CHRISTMAS GIFTS.  Fluffy snow continued to fall all day.  Some of the major roads and highways were closed.  Not a great time to go somewhere. Sliding in the ditch isn't fun nor is it safe.

Snowing in Kansas.   


Indoors the colorful CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTS came on with a surge of electrical power.  Sparkling.  The tree is so pretty and cheery to me.  LOVELY.







The tree was decorated yesterday and so it will be enjoyed until after January 6th's EPIPHANY.  We'll still enjoy the glow for 3 to 4 weeks to come.  Christmas SHOPPING will continue this week.  A Christmas letter will be composed and cards mailed.  I bought the stamps already and I continue to focus on this season.  BAKING will take place in a few days.

I don't suppose I'll make it to the POST OFFICE tomorrow to mail some more small packages. Shall see.  Bundling up to make my way to the car will take some time.  I no longer have Galoshes to keep my feet dry.

Long gone are my days of wearing rubbery boots.  Time to resurrect these.  Will be on the look-out for some.  If everything goes well, they could last twenty years or so!  Have mercy...I would be a 84 year old woman.  SO be it.

SUNDAY EVENING, I telephoned my MOM visiting about an hour with her. She sounded tired.  Sharing that one of the symptoms of Vitamin D deficiency is fatigue.  Wishing that she'd have this checked...she doesn't like being told what to do.  A characteristically, rebellious spirit that runs in the family.

Watched a decent 2008 Cowboy movie last night starring Ed Harris, Viggo Mortensen, and Renee Zellweger.   APPALOOSA.  When Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch arrive in Appaloosa, they find a town suffering at the hands of a renegade rancher who’s already left the city marshal and one of his deputies dead. Cole and Hitch are used to cleaning up after scavengers, but this one raises the stakes by playing not with the rules—but with emotion.   

Popcorn tasted really good.  Costumes, interior scenes, acting, story line all very good.  SPOILER ALERT:  One scene of a man and a woman bathing in the river.  Might find this offensive.
    
Widow Allie French with newly hired City Marshall Virgil Cole.
A fast moving woman looking for a home, money and security in the Wild West with a City Marshall taken by her beauty and personality.  She gets what she wants with many.

THINK we'll watch it again for our Sunday Night At The Movies.  

TODAY, I stayed in my housecoat surfing the internet just occasionally doing a chore and thinking about what I need to do this coming week.  Slow paced.  Checked out Victorian houses. Vitamin news.  Tried to take a nap, but wasn't successful.  Victorian dishes and toured Anne of Green Gables house in Prince Edward Island.  Read up on Lucy Montgomery and her unhappy life as a Pastor's wife.  I am not a Calvinist who believes that those who are going to heaven are already selected.  Praise God for HIS Salvation which is available to all in whosoever believes on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ is saved.  

I have a hobby of studying some branches of religion and looking for the errors.  Hours of entertainment.  I do not agree with The New Apostolic Reformation MOVEMENT also known as the NAR.  

P a u l a. W h i t e. C a i n.  is involved with this movement as she believes that she is a modern day apostle.  A self appointed one.   Our DEAR President's spiritual advisor is P a u l a.   He believes she has the IT FACTOR.  P a u l a  says the IT FACTOR is the Holy Spirit.  I question her sincerity.  

I question a great deal about Mrs. White-Cain.  Watching videos with her in actual services is troubling especially when she says to place your jewelry in the offering plate.  Yo what?  Yo jewelry.    

Is the NAR invading the White House?  Many are impressed that there are Christian prayers going on inside the White House without taking into account what NAR believers believe.    

The new week is upon me.  The clock keeps ticking.  CHRISTMAS will be here soon.  
Oh come, oh come, oh come, Emmanuel,

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
