Outside my door when it's nice weather we have all kinds of things blooming. This is just one of the day lilies we have. It has a double blossom on it. Nature is a BLESSING for sure.
GOOD MORNING !
Every day there miracles all around us. Sometimes we see them and very often we don’t. As I try to dwell on the ‘bright side’, I’m often in search for them. I am always on the look out to see what blessings each day may contain.
On my way home from work yesterday I witnessed a car going through a red light. Red lights mean stop, but this car jumped the gun. The turn signal in the lane on his right turned green, but his light to go straight didn’t. Well it was a miracle that car did not get hit. I said a little prayer of thanks for that one.
How often I’ve almost done the same thing.
When I see things like that happen I always think that persons guardian angel must be working overtime.
Today is another work day for me. The 2nd of 5 this week. And believe me when I say , I do say my guardian angel prayer as I go out the drive way.
That prayer is followed by one for my family and friends too.
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Working high upon the steep roof of a barn the old guy lost his footing andstarted a rapid slide downward. Certain that he would be killed, the man, whowasn’t a regular customer, cried out to God, Lord, save me!
Immediately, his cuff caught on a nail which was just far enough out to snaga healthy chunk of material. With a sigh of relief, the fellow prayed again,Never mind, Lord, my pants caught on a nail and stopped me.
I wonder how many miracles we explain away. Out of need, a prayer goes up;but when the answer comes, it is rationalized. Even more I wonder how manymiracles we would see if we expected to see more
‘On Ya’-ma
GOOD MORNING!
Here we are with a new week and a new day once more.
It’s going to be long 5 day work weeks for me from now on til Thanksgiving and then I’m taking the day after as a vacation day.
The thing is that work slows down for us now. The weather has put a stop to a lot of the work our men do as it’s been way too cold.
Having less to do makes the days at work seem even longer than what they are. I’ll be starting to purge some old files and move them to the archives and shred some of the old stuff, but I really cannot do much of that til the new year.
At home there is lots and lots to do with preparing my house for Thanksgiving company. My company will be my family and they do not need anything special done for them, but my house has been sadly neglected since camping season began in April so there really is a lot to clean up and organize.
I hope your Monday is a great one!THOUGHT FOR TODAY
If we weren't meant to keep starting over,
would God have granted us Monday?

We do need peace, if we're to maintain our physical and emotional and mental health. And peace can be found only in the simple things--a walk in the forest, a good book on a rainy day, nice music by the fireplace, a good cup of coffee or tea and plenty of time to drink it and enjoy it
GOOD MORNING !
Today is my day for R & R. Rest and relaxation. Refreshment and Renewal. The day that helps me to get through the work week ahead of me.
I’ve got my good cup of coffee right beside me and I am at peace here this morning. There is some work I may or may not do today, but for the most part it will be relaxing.
The nice thing about Sundays is that there is no rush to do anything. Whatever I do will be at my pace and not at the demands of others.
I always consider the jobs I do at home to be more fun than work anyway. Taking care of my home is a pleasure to me. It is the work I do away from home that is not always so great.
I hope to do some cooking and baking so that I’ll have some leftovers for the week ahead. Coming home from work and finding a meal in the fridge that only needs to be heated up is a joy.
As always I’m off to church this morning and will be saying some special prayers for all of you today. Some will be prayers of thanks and some will be prayers for help needed. I know that they all will be heard and answered in just the right way and at the right time.
Have a blessed Sunday everyone!
