I can't believe how long it's been since I've blogged. This time of year is so extremely busy at times, like it is for all of you. So we'll see how often I can get an entry out.
The house is feeling more and more like home. We had a friend over last night for dinner, and we had a great time. He is an older, single gentleman, that truly is a testimony to God's love, grace and mercy. He is a Veteran and 8 years old in the Lord. He truly puts me to shame with his humbleness and knowing he deserves nothing from the Lord. I know I can forget how I deserve nothing, I sometimes think I deserve everything. We had a nice spaghetti dinner and some strawberries on angel food cake with whipped cream for desert. I should have taken a picture, but I didn't think about it.
I have realized a list of things that need to be done some before Christmas and some before Thanksgiving. The ones before Thanksgiving I need to get moving on. So like all of you, we'll see how blogging goes during this time of year. This is my first time blogging during the holiday season, I'm just not sure how much time I'll have. But I will blog as regularly as I can.
Hey JoAnn,
Glad to hear your house is now your home. I know it's tough right before the holidays, so I wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving and I look forward to reading your blogs.
It must be the time of the year, because I find myself thinking less of blogging and more about the up and coming things that need my attention. I never thought I'd say a thing like that. But it is true! Am I weird? Will the blog police come and take away one of my blogs???

lol! That's when I started blogging last year, is right before the Holidays. I guess I like to torture myself. And last year was a doosey (sp?) of a year. My friend from school died suddenly in October. A friend of mine lost her 10 week old baby, whom she was planning to adopt only a few days after I started blogging. My washer died the night before Thanksgiving. I found out my Grandmother was dying on Thanksgiving. My Grandmother died on Christmas day. My heater took out the day before New Years Eve (luckily we found a person with a part to fix it considering how old it is) and then on New Years Day Night our downstairs toilet backed up, flooded our kitchen and ruined about half of PC's Christmas gifts that hadn't found a home yet. On top of that HSB was having major troubles and kept crashing. How I kept blogging through all that I have know idea. I just really hope the Holidays this year are better!!! So far so good!!! :)
I like what you said " sometimes I think I deserve everything". I can relate. Although I know the opposite to be true.
I look forward to reading your blog. I haven't been blogging long so we will see if I can keep up during the holidays. I miss days here and there but always have posting somewhere in the back of my mind. Am I addicted? I sure do enjoy it.
Be blessed.

It is a funny part of the year where there really isn't much time for blogging, and yet there is SO MUCH to blog about. All the pictures and crafts and ideas and parties....
Feel free to invite me over for dinner anytime! I love Angel Food cake. (Go figure!)
Blessings,
Angel
