BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY! Amen.


HOW'S OUR DAY GOING TO GO???  NOT TO MENTION THE WEEK.  Wanting a good one with some rest as well as productivity to take place.  Looked over our calendar to refresh my mind about appointments and activities.  The week looks good.  Not over committed. A slower paced week with results anywho.   

Visited with HUBBY to synchronize our week and remembered that we need to get some new tires for our lil cruiser.  Her tires are balding.  Having tires in this condition can get dangerous if the roads are wet and braking takes place.  You might hydroplane in the car.  I don't care to go flying losing control while going across the Flint Hills.  

Better to be safe than sorry.

🩹🤕 TV.  What is it about entertainment these days?  Perhaps I am resisting doing other productive things rather than watching a television series.  There's that 'F' word holding hands with more foul language.  It has gotten easier for me to turn the channel when the 'F'  b o m b goes off.  Sad state of affairs when the script has this word used over and over.  Kate Hudson is the executive producer of a series about a basketball team, THE WAVES.  Right off the bat, there's the foul language.  What a waste of a good story line.  When I let the filth into my HOME through the TV then it's my fault that I did not filter out the junk.

I have say-so over what I 👀 watch.  Boredom, laziness and/or exhaustion contributes to watching way too much TV.  I've got my  number.

HEALTH WISE.  Walking to resume in the morning.  More steamed veggies in a day and salad greens included in the menus.  Water intake.  Some special teas to drink plus vitamin/minerals supplements.  Spending time praying.  I'll weigh myself in the mornings and exercise with light weights.  Sounds like a program.

CHORES.  
THE FRIDGE. 1)The fridge's interior shelves were cleaned.  Items organized and accounted for.  

2) Next the door's smaller shelves will be cleaned and the door items tended to.
3) The freezer needs tweaked so I know what I have on hand.

FOOD.  ðŸ¦ƒ The big, beautiful frozen turkey that I have in the utility room freezer needs to be thawed and baked. THEN we'd have an abundance of turkey for a week or so until we got sick of it.  How can anybody get sick of baked turkey? "Not I," said the frugal homemaker.  God bless us one and all. 🦃

FURNITURE.  The 4 wooden dining room chairs will be dry and ready to sit on this week after their overdosing treatment with the furniture polish session.  

I'd like to strip the table.  I'll need to put this on a TO-DO-LIST.  First the front bedroom needs cleared out.  I'm doing this on my own for the time being so it is VERY, VERY SLOW.

WEEK-END WRAP.  We made a split decision to make a quick trip to MANHATTAN for a sledge hammer which Husband needed for building special braces for the front porch to support the roof while rebuilding the porch.  Off we went like a bolt of lightning.  Sometimes I get around rather quickly and today I did.  Just like that I was in the car.  

I drove while admiring the beautiful countryside.  Iced Tea, Lunch, Menards, Target and Hy-Vee. Back HOME we went.  Unloaded our spoils and I went for my chair to put my feet up and eat a bowl of Special-K cereal for a light supper.  Popcorn to follow.  Watched a movie and called it a night.

Here comes MONDAY.

Better safe than sorry,
~d

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

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
