Lord Jesus.

Happy Thanksgiving !

 I can't believe November is flying by like this.We had snow here in our area yesterday and it really came down! Thankfully there was no accumulation. We are to expect a low of 19 degrees tonight. We are ready to plan our Thanksgiving menu and we have Tom Turkey in the fridge.

Giving thanks to our loving God is a blessing. Daily he loads us with benefits.    I also look forward to the Westminster dog show on Thanksgiving day. Every word of God is pure. He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him. Proverbs 30:5

Reading, what a companion.


 Good books and an ever changing flower show, all through the summer. Just now the cosmos, mariglolds and Rose of Sharon are blooming. Hubby and I are off to the grocery store.

 One thing I still love to collect is old dishs. The prettiest ones almost always say. 'Made in England'.  And they are beauties!  The beautiful blue and white cups pictured here were ( I believe) given as incentives to buy  products  such as Quaker Oats....haveing either the cup or a coupon for it in the box of cereal or whatever. Sometimes if you were patient you could collect whole sets of dishs.

 Another reminder of how beautiful  summer can be.  Loved this lily! but.....by the time it blooms, it is almost choked out by lilies of lesser importance and when it is done blooming, it is hard to locate....despite my efforts to tie bits of yarn on the stalks. Rather like my efforts to organize my 'stuff' aka 'clutter'.  

Now that I am 72 I realize I have a lot of books that I am loathe to part with. Books are and have been wonderful friends to me. Psalm 23 at the top of the list!

Just a memory now.....


 Just a memory now but what an enjoyable one. The coloring of thsese and the ruffles of the marigolds are delightful. I am reading and always trying to de-clutter. Hopeless....that.  'Stuff" is here to stay!

At last, I found a few vintage post cards to post. The computer ate two before this one turned  up.  The Christmas tree is decorated now, and being enjoyed. I am enjoying old re-runs of 'The Donna Reed Show'.  Today was a beautiful day, full of sunshine and energy. When I think of all the things the Lord has let me enjoy over the years, my heart is filled with thanksgiving.
