HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS

NOVEMBER 6
THE HOLIDAY PLANNING CONTINUES




Preparing for the HOLIDAYS continues.
I may have to slow my pace.  TODAY, my nose is stuffed up.  A tickle.  Watery eyes.  Cough. Cough.  I caught a cold.  Whaah.  It's not fun.  Sniff.  Sniff.  Increase the Vitamin C.  




Still had blood work done in the morning, bought a miniature humidifier at Bed, Bath and Beyond, dental appointment in the early afternoon and a nap.

The first full week of NOVEMBER marches on and if I can...the deep cleaning of the house begins.
  
Autumn decorations are out.
THANKSGIVING Menu decided on and shopping started.
Dishes, utensils and drinking glasses decided on.  Will wash closer to THANKSGIVING.
Coffee, Iced Tea, Coffee Urn, Iced Tea Dispenser with sugar, artificial sugar, coffee creamer, stirrers ready of use.
Baking dishes will be located ready to go.
More thought about seating arrangements.
Need napkins, salt and pepper shakers.
Have to unbox Boopie Glass and place in the Kitchen cabinet.  Need to bring ladder into Kitchen to rearrange the shelves.
Will wash all the dishes, glasses and baking dishes the week ahead of THANKSGIVING.
Will have to make final decisions about sleeping arrangements and gather up the bedding. Additional bedding may need purchase.  Necessary.


THE PLANNING CONTINUES.




This evening I ordered on-line some discounted sheer panels that will hopefully go well in our Living room.  Today, I looked at what Bed, Bath and Beyond sold and thought I had better remeasure my windows.  When I started to study up on the internet, I caught a better sell at JCPenney.  Debating if I should "PUDDLE" or not.  The ceilings are high in this house and I thought I'd like to try puddling the curtains for a change.

Originally I thought I'd buy sheers and then later add a heavier drapery.  When I looked at the prices being what they are, I went ahead ordering more sheers in a different color to give the look of a drapery.

Shall get through the HOLIDAYS with these sheers and give myself more time to think on heavier drapes.  WINDOW TREATMENTS are quite an investment.  EXPENSE.  For now, I will be covering 4 windows for under $264.oo with FREE SHIPPING.  Will share later the results.





Time to get some rest.  
Thank you for stopping by.

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.

BLOSSOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED
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
