P-I-N TUESDAY...dream weavin'

Only Parent Chronicles
Rather than reminding me of something to do, my PINs today are 'captured' dream memory from last night
...adding in a little Scripture searching
...helps me gather my thoughts on 'dreams'.

Ruth 3:8 "...middle of the night something startled the man..."


Matt. 13:25 "But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat." and went away.


Heb. 12:4 "In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood."
1 Cor. 9:26 "Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly..."









Ex. 16:9 ‘Come before the LORD, he has heard your grumbling.’


1 Sam. 11:10 “Tomorrow we will surrender to you, and you can do to us whatever you like.”


Ex. 28:35 "...bells will be heard...he will not die."










Where have your dreams taken you lately?

Not bad for $.75...

TODAY'S VISITOR...lovin' me some baby talk

My sister brought her six-month old grandson to visit today...

So I'm sharing some CUTE faces and sounds with you ...

Getting to have time with them reminded me how quickly time passes...and that we have to grab every today and love every moment in it.  Oh the days I heard my own girl making these precious sounds while she played.

I miss her not getting to enjoy this time with us but I know she is about her studies in college...where did the time go?
How many great nieces or nephews do you have in your life?




 Blessings,

PROJECT 365...Wk 42


Week 42.

10/10/11...gradually I'm getting my 'Fall' decorations in places.


...even though a few of them have disappeared


...DO YOU HAVE GHOSTS AT YOUR HOUSE?  


APPARENTLY  i DO...


after I put out SOME of my decorations (the cute Fall-colored linens on the mantle)


...seems the little ghost visited and moved them into our 'shawl storage chest' behind the recliner, hahahah!


10/11/11  i've also been having fun with some recent photographs...I just wanted to see how 'picnik's' enhancements looked...not too bad

10/12/11  Hubs was able to get the 'overgrown' shrubs out from around the mailbox, and the rain had stopped after making the ground nice and pliable.  Now my pansies have found their new home....here's the BEFORE.

 
and the AFTER.
AFTER a quick clean up, we were able to go to the church and enjoy dinner with many of our church family...one of our friends with his grandson...so sweet.

10/14/11  I enjoy a nice cup of 'cream of wheat' some mornings...
and yes, I make mine in the microwave. 
But, THAT morning I was later getting to my breakfast 


(I was watching DREW on PRICE IS RIGHT...and there was a precious young lady playing PLINKO


...and i HAD to see her 'release' her chips 


and see where they landed...


I was jumping up and down, because she won $21,000 ya'll!  




....and I forgot about my CoW...



hahahahahah!  had to clean it up quickly or it was going to turn into cement.










10/14/11
The following isn't my video; but it was making its way around FB...i laughed a lot.
Hope you like it, too.




10/15/11  While watching football throughout the early afternoon, I decided to crochet a hat.


it came out larger than expected...i didn't check my gauge.


oh, well, it is what it is...excuse my 'in-formal' model, Mr. Lamp


he doesn't have much personality.

Hope you have a wonderful week!



Blessings,
