MONKEY WANT A BANANA?


WHAT A WEEK-END WE HAD PURGING RIGHT ALONG.  
We got rid of so much STUFF that I believe we were successful purgers making a dent in our decluttering.  

NEW WEEK! FRESH START, but here I sit with an electric heating pad that vibrates up against my back. Apparently I pulled a back muscle being a HE-MAN shuffling stuff and it did a number on my back.  It's better, but I am catching a spasm ever so often that takes my breath away because it hurts.  The heat and vibrating massage is helping.

AFTER we donated our haul to GOODWILL on Saturday, we went to MENARDS for a free back massage while sitting in their demo chair.  Have mercy.  It sure felt wonderful.  The price is down on this masterpiece of a chair and I wish we'd get one.  It was very helpful and relaxing.  Not sure where we'd put her in the COTTAGE except maybe in the corner of the shed.  Giving it some thought.  

I have a large electric POLLENEX message heating pad.  I'm using it as I am in hopes that I will recover quickly and be alright.  Just goes to show that I am human and should not be acting like a HE-MAN when it comes to lifting and shuffling heavy items after all women ARE the weaker vessel and I'm willing to SNAG this scripture.  So much of the time I am not feminine enough and that's something I need to work at.  Being the weaker vessel isn't a bad thing at all.  More on that at a later date.  

It's a beautiful thing to be a woman that is feminine.  I was such a TOMBOY growing up.  There was too much emphasis at school to wear the pants.  Bluejeans actually and I AM WOMAN HEAR ME ROAR IN NUMBERS TOO BIG TO IGNORE.  Somewhere along the line, I embraced that I was a liberated hunk of meat that ran over others to get where I needed to go.  I wasn't the ideal example of a feminine woman. 


Behaving more like Cheetah, the Chimp from the Tarzan movies, I wasn't as feminine acting as I should have probably been.  When I was growing up into a young adult maturing into a HOMEMAKER, wife and momma, I was somewhat feminine just not as much as I probably should have been.  

I wore make-up, fixed my hair, exercised, played with dolls and rolled around in the mud but also wore dresses as well as bluejeans.  Not necessarily in this order.  Grins.

I was a hands on kind of gal remodeling and decorating each place we lived in.  That's alright, but my demeanor wasn't as charming as I wished it had been.  Oh well.  I have to forgive myself and forge ahead.

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
