Sunday Morning....

One of my most favorite songs.

Sometimes I get down because things are not going the way I want them too.

Then the Lord will put a song in my heart like he did this morning.

I am here, I am alive, I have food, shelter, wonderful family, great friends, awesome blogger friends.

But Most important I have Jesus..who will never leave me. Who does miracles in my life everyday!

A Looong Pillow

Howdy fellow bloggers.

I hope you are doing well.

I found out that my thyroid was off a little. Also that my vitamin D was extra extra low. The levels should be above 50 and min is at 9. 

So My doctor increased my thyroids meds a bit and I am now taking Vitamin D 50,000 U once a week with calcium pills.

I was having extreme fatigue so  I am hoping this helps.

Also comes diet changes. We are sloooowly getting off processed foods. It is hard enough for people to do this I think, but I have food allergies and it makes it even harder.

BUT I am determined to do it to make us all in my house feel better.

This is my looooong pillow I was working on.  I really like how it turned out.

It is about 14inches but it looks really long in person.

Its available in my ETSY shop.

I will have my fall giveaway ready to go this weekend. Hope you will come back and see what I am giving away to my followers!

Have a great week.

New stitcheries

Happy weekend everyone. I hope that you are having a blessed one.

I wanted to share my latest stitchery with you. 

It is one of my favorite scriptures. I designed it myself. :)

Growing up, my Grandma who raised me and my brother, had a sign with this on it hanging on her wall. it was the entire verse.

I remember she had it hanging right out in plain site and it was 3D ish and I remember dusting it and rubbing my fingers across it.

It a beautiful story in the book of Joshua.

I am also having a giveaway on my facebook page.

You can click on my facebook link on the right side of my blog. 

Like my page and comment on the picture.

I am finally settling into condo living. Hubby is liking NO yardwork except 2 little bushes he trims. Our condo is a 2 story. First time either of us have lived with stairs LOL Some days its god other days nahh..lol.

The kitties have adjusted ok. They sleep on the stairs sometimes LOL. Have to watch when coming down them they do not move.

Hope you have a blessed week.

nine eleven

I remember right where I was. 

I was getting the kids ready for school. Oh they were so little then.

I turned on the TV as I usually did in the mornings so the kids could watch cartoons.

No cartoons, No happy faces, just confusion.

It was early. The towers had just been hit and no one knew yet what was going on.

I pondered in my heart do I send the kids to school today?

The kids wanted to go, so I took them to the bus stop. By the time I got back home...

Our nation had changed.

I called my hubby at work. He said keep the news on. Listen to what they are saying.

I watched in horror. All those people running and scared for their lives. Firefighters, police men, every day citizens pulling together.

That evening when the kids were home with me and hubby. We talked about what happened.

I never thought in my life I would ever see this on American soil.

13 years later, the world has become more and more evil.

I pray that the USA becomes a country that loves and cherishes God again.

I pray my grand children will never experience what Our country did on that day.

It's bone chilling how Satan can manipulate people into doing his evil deeds. 

God Bless the USA.

Hello September

I am so Thankful September is here. That means cooler temps will be coming soon to us.

Have you started decorating for fall? I have. Oh yes I have.

I really enjoy making them and sending them to people I know.

Just darling graphics she has.

Have a great Sunday!

Imagination

Good morning and happy Saturday!

I hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Are you working? Relaxing? both?

We are all moved into the new townhouse and ONE thing that I have learned from all of this is that when moving from a house to a smaller townhouse you must have an imagination.

Meaning, where will I put all these things I think that I need!

In the kitchen we have limited space so my big armoire that I kept all my craft things in is now in the dinning room and actually it works perfect.

We no longer have a panty, just 2 cupboards to hold our food. So no more buying 15 cans of green beans when on sale. No place to put it all.

Master bathroom. Ah yes in the old house ample room for all the beauty things me and the hubby need. New place, I have one tiny drawer and under the sink. My poor elbows now bang the walls and there is no stretching of any kind.

Oh and the stairs.  There are 7 going up then a landing and 7 more. Being a big gal I hated them the first few days. But I have noticed 2 things. My knees don't hurt anymore..hummm..and you LEARN quickly to NOT forget anything when going up for the night LOL.

All and all the move has been wonderful. And know what all those "things" we thought we "needed" we really don't. I mean there is 4 in my family, why do we need 20 coffee mugs! We are not down to 8. :) 

Alot of the stuff we sold or donated. I have less space but more room if that makes any sense.

Next post I will be posting my giveaway. 

Until next time,

Cyn

Moving in The Heat

You heard that correctly.

We are moving...in the middle of summer!

 

The owners of the home we rent have decided to sell. So we have decided to try Townhome living for a few years.

Our boys are in their twenties and dont really play outside anymore. So we dont need the big yard.

Hubby hates mowing because he has become allergic to the grass.

We will have a community pool where we are headed. So we can still enjoy that.

I wont be back on blogging until 2 weeks from now,,,,BUT I may pop on ya just never know.

I also put my ETSY shop on vacation. BUT will come back with some fall things I have been working on.

I will leave you with a card I made using a gorgeous tag collection from Ewe-N-Me Printables.

Isnt it adorable!!  I did it all by sewing machine. Osnaburg sewn on and then scrapbook paper and them the tag.  This collection is really beautiful!!!

So until I return....pray for a safe and easy move.
