Hugs to my sistahs! Another glorious day here in the Valley. I will be making the most of it working outside with my flowers.

You all have a great day!

Good afternoon, Sistah Dutchess and all my Finest Family. Another day of nice things to ponder - and practice. :)

Never go grocery shopping when you’re hungry. You’ll buy too much.Hmmmm, could that be why my grocery bill is so high - I usually go about an hour before dinner. :)

T Man, would you crack some more ice while you're in the kitchen filling the ice trays?

Learn to handle a pistol and rifle safely.

*All* of these suggestions are priceless, but this one is my favorite (((((((dutchess)))))). Beautiful job - gave me a much-needed smile today.

((((((HUGS)))))) to all and Happy Humpday!

I've been busy working and commuting all day...and what a treat it is to get home, have a cup of coffee and read your uplifting, and beautiful, thread...thank you, Miss Dutchess...)

I celebrated life today by having a good cheeseburger for lunch, sitting on a cliff watching the ocean wave at me, feeling the cool breeze on my face.

Now that I'm safely home, maybe a celebratory nap is in order.

It really is a wonderful life, and I thank God for it...and for the great nation in which I'm lucky enough to live.

awwwww. You know, I was *so* busy today I JUST got around to reading that carefully. Very pretty, Dutchess! Thanks. LOL, I'm not sure that refilling ice cube trays will lead to true happiness, but the rest sound good!

Thank you ! ;^)

We were going to an AYCE Chinese buffet place but she changed her mind.

So now, we're going for pizza in a few minutes. Suits me either way ...

Sure, use it if you can.

Is there something I can help you look for?

I'm so glad you got lonestar's attention. I've been trying all day but she has been on the phone or had company all day.

And I'm on the front page!

jwfiv, thanks for always pinging me. I read your posts but am bad about replying.

The Mayor, I love all your posts and get so much out of them.

(((group hug))) I'm sorry I'm not around more. I'm always busy with the kids. Homeschooling is quite consuming. I log on to read the news real quick but never have time to play any more. :(

We saw "The Passion" last night and I've been so happy today. I cried during the viewing and was exhausted later on, yet I felt strangely happy and came out of the movie smiling a little, feeling guilty about doing so. I thought surely there is something wrong with me, seeing Jesus slaughtered and coming out smiling. I hope no one saw. I was praying to God last night asking Him to soften my heart, because my heart must be rock hard for not weeping. I thought I should have been more upset than I was.

Today I've just been so happy and excited. I've been singing, "He could have called 10,000 angels" and "Victory in Jesus" all day. I can't stop thinking about the blood and how it was for me, my wretched self. I soooooo do not deserve the mercy and love God gives me. Of all the people in the world, I deserve hell the most. I'm just so happy! I can't stop feeling happy. I'm saved. What a relief! What a blessing! I'm going to heaven. I can't wait to see Jesus and Peter and my grandma again.

I'm so humbled today. It probably wont last long since pride is my worst problem, but I pray I don't lose this feeling. (Yikes! Dangerous prayer. It's gonna hurt). I just can't get over Him so humbly going through all that for me and submitting the way He did. There aren't any words to describe my joy.

Blessed assurance....praise God!
