Counting My Blessings Day 27

Today my friends, I have been blessed with the gift of time.
I had time today to have breakfast with Lee, to take a nap and read a book, watch a football game, cook and enjoy supper with Lee, blog here and visit many others.
A simple day. Filled with simple pleasures. Which I am blessed to enjoy and take comfort in.
Thank You Lord for this day, I am blessed yet again by your grace.
My mom made our stockings, mine was made so long ago I was just a kid,at least 25 years ago if not longer.  Lee's was made 15 years ago in "Cowboys" colors...I know sheesh, but that is what he wanted and that is what she made.
We don't have a fireplace and the shelf we used to use broke, so we are using command strips on the grandfather clock. It works for us :)

Merry Christmas

    Love the stockings and sounds like a great day. I could sure use another movie and I was thinking how fun it would be if we were neighbors and we could watch one together. :)
    Hope you are rested from Black Friday.
    Blessings!!

    I think time is one of the greatest gifts we have-in between work and duties-free time to relax and enjoy life is what it's all about! Glad you had some time to do some relaxing things-I'm looking forward to that in January!

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...
