Christmas!

It may seem a bit early to begin to think about Christmas, but it is not too early to begin cards and decorations if you want to make them by hand!  Check out the "Joy To The World" tree hanger.  Hope you like it!

Blessings

I am sitting here in my office and enjoying a nice cool fall day.  I am having a nice chuckle about my neighbors mowing.  The lawn mower goes back and forth and when it is time to empty the bag, the mower is turned off.  Within a few seconds after it is off it backfires, every time!  I love it!  I can almost guess every single time exactly when the backfire will come.  It is too funny to sit here and wait.  It is one thing that I can look forward every week of the spring and summer.

Coming on to fall!

Today is rather cool.  Cooler than normal and I am enjoying it.  My office is warm in the afternoon sunshine.  I am loving the new smell that fall brings.  It is time to think about tearing out the old stuff in the garden and getting ready to put things to bed for winter.  It is early this year and that is a surprise.  I have a lot to do and don't seem to have much ambition to get things done.  I am enjoying this peaceful time of year and it is only September 6th!

Thankfulness

Does it occur to me more than one time a day to be thankful for something that God has placed in my life?  Sometimes I feel that I am so focused on my own everyday things that I forget to be thankful for ALL that he has provided.  To be thankful for each little instance and circumstance is the place I would like to be.  Thankful for each second that he has provided.
