Project 365 Week 30

Here are last weeks pictures that I wanted to have posted on Sunday! Due to a little (big) project that I am working on for Christmas, I just did not have time. More on that later...but here is last week in photograph!

Monday, December 7
I LOVE having a swimming pool in my back yard - most of the time!
But when it is below freezing, my hubby is out of town, and I must do the pool maintenance,
I don't like it so much. Putting my hands in that water is just not fun!

Tuesday, December 8
My daughter and I went and had our hair done this evening. Afterward, we went to look at this house. It is really cool...the lights dance to the rhythm of music. Turn your radio on, sit back and relax. So we did! I posted the video below!

Wednesday, December 9
This is my department. We took a photograph to put on a card to give to our doctors.
This is the photo that we selected.

Thursday, December 10
I had so much fun at the pottery class I took in October and November, that I asked my daughter to take a pottery workshop with me to make Christmas ornaments.
She agreed. We had such a good time and here are some of our creations getting ready to
go off to be fired in the kiln. We pick them up in a week! Can't wait!

Friday, December 11
Family Night!
Plus an invite. My friend, Tricia, is brand new to the story of Christmas. She and her son came over for dinner and then we watched to movie, The Nativity.
What fun!

Saturday, December 12
I went to the mall all day on this day and finished my Christmas shopping!
Hooray!
While I was there, I passed Santa...and watched a few photographs taken. It brought back
memories and motivated my Christmas spirit.

Sunday, December 20
Rebecca and I have been very busy working on something.
(it's a secret, but I will reveal it next week!)
Our poor old man dog just doesn't know what to do with himself, so he sleeps, if we are lucky - which we were on Sunday night!

Enjoy!
Oh, and check out the video below!

Peace~

The Unexpected

Sometimes, things just don't happen like we expect. Occasionally, the unexpected is a nice surprise, but sometimes the unexpected can turn an event, circumstance, or even a life, upside down. Last week, my daughter and I went to spend Spring Break with family. Our flight was lovely, the weather perfect, and we were looking forward to a stress free week. The first thing we did was eat lunch at one of our favorite Thai restaurants. As usual, we looked forward to our fortune cookies. We took turns reading and laughing...and then my daughter opened hers - "Be prepared for a change in plans." Uh-oh. We didn't like this one but we decided our week would be stress free and fun in spite of what a cookie said. Continuing on through out the day, all was well until that night. I sat outside on the porch of a friend I have known for 35 years and received news that changed something I have believed for 30 years. The words were horrible and made me so ill that I got sick within min...

ABC's of the Word - Y

It's Thursday! I love Thursdays because I take special time to ponder and pray about the verses in God's word that have meant a lot to me as I walk with Him. I was excited to get to "Y" because of of my very favorite scriptures begins with "Y", using the word "Your" as we talk to God about how wonderful His love is. This particular scripture is one that I go to whenever I feel that I have wondered away from Him and it is a song (by Third Day) that I sing when I want to praise Him for how deep, how wide, how big His love really is! More than I can imagine! Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep. O LORD, you preserve both man and beast. How priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of your wings. Psalm 36:5-7 (NIV) For more ABC's of the Word visit Grey Like Snuffie

I Close My Eyes

Well, I did it. I took the writer's challenge at a blog that I have been lurking around for some time. I found this blog through Laura at Wellblog 's place and have been enthralled ever since. I have dabbled in poetry on and off. Written some invitations, cards, and even a few song lyrics (for fun) but have been hesitant to post any. (roaring lion? see below post ) With the encouragement of a friend, I decided to take the challenge on L.L.Barkat's blog, in a lesson on seeing. I chose a subject that is cherished, a memory that was real and something close to my heart. The beach. Many, many days were spent at the beach in the 12 years I lived on the Southern Virginia coast. The memories are real, and when.......... I close my eyes and I can still see the beach. The endless spans of water Sometimes blue, green, or gray. It moves Gently and Violently Bubbles rise and falling forward. On and on. I close my eyes and I can still hear the crash Of tidal movement As earth slowly spi...
