Nothing really exciting is happening. Laundry, Baking, Cleaning to do. Before the Big trip on..

Tuesday-Thursday, Living Hope is having meeting's at Dorian.

Sure is a long way to couple for a day and a half. Oh well, once we get there it will be fine.

I'll try to keep a positive attitude!

The other day: Hilda and i did a mog pog craft on clear glass plates.

This moose picture i took was a wall hanging that belonged to the Cheechoo's.  A moose painting on an actual moose fur. It is Gorgeous! 

It's been fun doing crafts with Hilda.

Our Next craft probably will be a little tee pee with a battery operated tea lite inside the tp. I'm really excited about that one!

Yesterday, Darlene Mann and I were supposed to go out for Lunch..But she called and said work was busy and could not get away, We decided to try Monday.

It will be nice to see her.

Tonight the young adults are going on a hay ride and it's cold. I wish i had my sorels and ski pants. I had all that stuff at my moms and when we were going through all her stuff..No where to be found!

Oh well, I'll take a blanket and it will be fun.

Kendra is coming to visit next week, she'll be here for at  least 4 or 5 days so I'll have to think of some things to do with her while she's here.

The first Tuesday of March is Women's Ministries and I need some fresh good ideas to plan.

We get back from Dorian late Thursday night and then i have till Sunday to come-up with something. "Sunday", I'll have to present  what were doing for women's night. 

Kendra will be here...

Bev and I work together in this Ministry. Well i need to go do some productive work now,

I typed a verse that meant something to me yesterday and thought I'd share it with you all! The Lord your God is with you. He is Mighty to save, He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with his love. He will Rejoice over you with singing.Zep 3:17

Happy Family Day!

I had my devotional this morning..In Ephesians 1:7  He(God) is so rich in Kindness that he purchased our freedom through his blood of his son, and our sins are forgiven. (NLT) Verse says God is so 'Rich in Kindness" I know when i think about my past, i start to think why would God want to forgive something or someone like that.

I was so struck with the Forgiveness Part and really hit me for some reason. 

Through "Jesus" we can be "Forgiven". He Purchased..He Paid the Price.  2 keys in this  devotional.

 Number 1.  We must confess our sin.

 Number 2. Our Problem or "my problem" we have with sin is forgetting forgiven sin. 

Forgetting Forgiven Sin!  I was telling my friend Dedee the other day that my memory isn't sharp like it use too. And here i sit remembering my past....Forgetting Forgiven Sin.

That is a challenge i will take with me this week!

Not like what i thought early this Morning.....Family Day.."What Family" The Government should push for  a "singles holiday: Now, I'm being really Sarcastic!. Right there i found myself being selfish. Till god reminded me, MJ, You belong to the Family of God, What more could you ask for. 

It's so easy to look at the things we don't have. Look how rich those pancakes look!  

I decided I'd be kind to myself and make pancakes and bacon..and  fruit. and Rhonda..I thought of you as i was making these pancakes. "Only flip em once on each side".

Tonight..Is girls night out! I should figure what i am gonna make.. All have a good Day! MJ

Good Morning!

It's been slippery out there....at least the snow is melting. 

My elderly neighbor Paul fell  outside the other day. His wife Elsie called the ambulance and was checked out.  A couple weeks ago Elsie fell all the way down the stairs, two black eyes and am sure she was bruised in other parts of her body. She was pretty stiff and sore for couple weeks. They are on their way to good Recovery!

They invited me over for supper last night. Turkey and all the trimmings..cherry delight for dessert! It was Great!

Last evening, Danae Swartzentruber was over to show me how to create folder's so i can organize my pictures on my computer. It took at least 3 hrs to sort through, Now i need to load them-up on a Cd.

This week i would have planned the Valentine Dinner, But it sounds like it's a "no show".

I am Perfectly fine with it!

Although, it would be fun to bake some desserts and have alittle party!

I love Chocolate cake and Cheesecakes...Let's just say i love to bake!

The messy part i don't care for so much. They need to make disposable measuring cups and spoons. I'm being lazy!

Yesterday, I went and bought a brand new frying pan. I hope this one last for a long time, Paid good money for it.

This sunday is my mother's birthday. I've been thinkin alot about that.... She would have turned 70! 

I still miss her so much. It's left a huge hole in our family circle.

Sometimes i will worry about things like; What if i get sick...who's gonna care for me?

Or mom giving advice and giving her unconditional love that seems to soothe things over.

My one memory that i remember was when i woke-up from having a seizure..Dad was laying next to me reading his bible and praying. Mom walked into the bedroom to make sure i was alright.

Another time when us kids were little.. mom would wake us up by gently lifting our sleepy little heads and giving us a warm drink of tea. Her love so early in the morning like that i will never forget. Now when we were teenagers....LOL

Just knowing my parents were there..made everything alright!

Before dad passed away..we had prayer time together, Seemed like we got closer.

My memory of Dad was often he would have the bible on his chest and he would meditate.

Dad's passing was in Nov 27,2001. He would have turned 79 this year!

Doesn't sound old at all.

I will rejoice knowing they are in the Lord's Presence and Thank God For giving me such loving Parents! 

The memories i have of my parents.. show me the "Love god of God"!

Embrace God's love today....My Friends!

Beware: Somehow... i have no clue to what i did. But their are 3 same posts. LOL! Just ignore the two. 

This week

I am having some difficulties trying to post for some reason. Well see how this works for me .

I was almost out every night this week. The one night i was supposed to be at Bible Study did not work-out. I enjoyed the nice quiet evening at home! I'll spare you all the detail of each night.

Tuesday we had women's ministries, 8 ladies showed up at the Parker House Bed and Breakfast for an evening of fellowship. Three desserts were ordered..along with 8 spoons. Chocolate truffle cheesecake was a HIT! I'd like to try it sometime.if any of you readers would have a recipe for it.

One really neat icebreaker we did was, Since the room was so noisy!  Bev and i gave each women a red piece of paper. We wrote our names on the top of the paper and as we passed it around..Each person wrote and encouraging word for that person's name on the top.

More a Valentine Theme and then we handed out heart shaped chocolate's. Bev shared some scripture with us.

Let me go to Friday Night....Some of us ladies went out for supper. Afterwards we did a craft at Hilda's. She had everything arranged so well...She even had carrot-cake made. LOL! We stained the wooden boxes and decorated them with leather and beads. I glued some little roses on mine. I'm thinkin i will give mine away and  put some prayer's in the box for that person. Hilda had made me one for my birthday and am using it as a prayer box.

She has another craft in mind in the next couple weeks. Hilda us wearing the Burgundy shirt and the other lady is Virginia. 

This week Dedee and i worked on some things for our Missions Trip to Cat-lake. Were doing shirts for the team of 9. 

My sister sent me some birthday money. So i went and bought an MP3 player this week, How to download music????? I'll need help!

My cold is now gone and am trying to stay away from the flu-BUG!

And i want SPRING! This winter is now too old.

I'll spare you any more complaints, I 'll just take some deep breaths and relax.

OKAY, I feel better..gotta go to some laundry now. Have a wonderful weekend!
