I Thank God… Day 30

November 30, 2008

I thank God for my son, Matthew. I’ve learned so much through the years of mothering, teaching, and loving him. He’s nearly grown now…at least I hope he is. He’s over six feet tall!

I thank God for my daughter, Emily. She helped me through the grieving my mother’s death, just by being [...]

I Thank God… Day 29

November 29, 2008

I thank God for seasons and celebrations in our lives. Our existence would grow rather hum-drum if we never celebrated anything. I told my daughter yesterday that Fall ends in December; but, we seem to have five seasons now rather than four. The Christmas season has been added to the basic four. I suppose it [...]

German Apple Stuffing

November 26, 2008

My momma always made sage dressing.  When I got married, I decided to do something different.  It’s become my family’s favorite stuffing.  I always think I’m going to go back and make the sage dressing sometime; but, I’m always voted down!  Happy Thanksgiving, Advent, and Christmas!

November 26, 2008

Okay, Friends, we’re down to the wire for Thanksgiving preparations. Hopefully, you’ve already cleaned, planned out menus, and gotten food in the house. Next, it’s time to make a list of all the things you have to do from now until dinner is served tomorrow. I’m going to a friend’s house with my family; but, [...]

I Thank God… Day 26

November 26, 2008

I thank God. This month has made me really think. Thank you Sue at Country Pleasures for suggesting this theme for the month. Last night, I was talking with my children and praying with them after our company left. I amazed them by thanking God for my mother’s cancer. It [...]

I Thank God… Day 25

November 25, 2008

I thank God for planes, trains, and automobiles. They allow us to see loved ones far away.
I thank God for phones, e-mail, and snail mail. They allow us to talk to loved ones far away.

Thank you God!

Getting a Little Stressed?

November 24, 2008

No, it’s not mine; but, it’s beautiful!

Okay, some of you may be getting a little stressed at this point. Thanksgiving is but a few days away.

First, take a deep breath. Now, go take your turkey of of the freezer. Put it in the refrigerator to thaw slowly and safely.

We have a lot of control [...]

I Thank God…Day 24

November 24, 2008

Thank God it’s Monday! This is an odd week for a sales executive. My hubby will work regularly for Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday will be strange because no one really wants to buy advertising or anything else on the day before Thanksgiving. So, I think he’ll have a meeting with the [...]
