Counting My Blessings Day 20

20 days of blessings counted so far.
20 posts in a row, which is a lot for me, I am not an everyday poster, so this has been a new challenge for me. A good one though.
Today I have 2 blessings.
First I have a friend at work,

 I love her a bunch.
She is a blessing to me and I am thankful to have her in my life.
She surprised me with a gift this morning. I have a really hard time with my hands in winter weather, they crack and split no matter how much lotion I use, she found a pair of Aloe infused gloves and gave them to me to try and help my poor hands. That was so kind and thoughtful of her.
Thanks Julia, I am putting them on before I go to bed.
Next,
I am so glad we have TV preachers and TBN.
Oh I know some of them are shall we say...extreme, but others...they are spot on, to me at least.
This morning I was not able to make it to church, so I had the TV on and I had my pick of messages to choose from, so thank you Lord for calling some of these men to your ministry and blessing them.
Because you have led them, I draw closer to you Lord.
I am blessed today!

    Ethel,
    I think that is a fabulous tattoo!!!!!! Love it, gonna show my husband so he can get one. Of course, him having a phobia with needles, we know this will never happen . . .
    I think I should get some of those gloves, he needs them as his hands crack and split terribly. Thanks for the idea!!

Hey Y'all! Sorry to have been away so long again. I won't go into details, but it has been a bit of an adventure here. I think  things are settling down (fingers crossed) So how are ya? I have another give away for ya! A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to try and review a box of Woolzies Dryer Balls. Here is a bit about Woolzies from their website Photo from their Facebook page  Woolzies are pure handmade New Zealand wool dryer balls that soften your laundry naturally without any of the chemicals of conventional fabric softeners. Unlike the plastic dryer balls, they are PVC free and won't fall apart or melt on you. Woolzies save time and energy by cutting down on drying time by an average of 25% per load. They also help reduce static and wrinkles. Use Woolzies to snuggle up with naturally downy soft laundry that's completely free of harmful chemicals.  Woolzies are also hypo-allergenic and totally safe for people with wool sensitivities as...

Merry Christmas Y'all. Yes I say Merry Christmas! I keep Christ in  Christmas because it matters to me. I was at a craft show recently and at one of the booth's I wished the vendor a Merry Christmas, he said Thank You and then said "I don't say anything anymore, you never know what people believe and I don't want to offend anyone" OK I get that, he is a businessman....however;  I replied...."I say Merry Christmas because it is what I believe" he said huh... I have never thought of it that way before... I work for the "worlds largest retailer" and I say Merry Christmas all season long, In all of the 23 years I have worked in retail, no one has ever said "don't say that to me" actually most people are kind of surprised to hear it if I judge by the look on their faces and most reply Merry Christmas to you too. So try it on for size, the next time you are out, wish the people in your path a Merry Christmas, I bet it will make...
