Hello March and More

 Happy Tuesday


Where does the time fly to? Away, I suppose. February left us so quickly and now it is March.


I joined a Maxine group at social media. I Know Sandee loves Maxine like I do. 


Hannah captured Oreo whining that his food was not in his dish. By the looks of him, he is eating well balanced meals. Jake and Hannah get a kick out of him and his brothers. Casper, the quiet one, Marmalade the bossy one. He might be Mister Kitty's relative1 Hmm...He sure acts like him! hahaha Felines are funny creatures, as are all fur babies. They each have such unique personalities. This guy has been looking like a house cat lately.

Aw...Mondays/ and Hospice Care Heroes Tough Chicks Prayer

If you follow Facebook at all I want you to go there and find  Brooklyn's Journey Home . I will be sadly disappointed if you  don't do this. This 25 year old beautiful young lady is dying. You know what she isn't worried about? Things of the world. She has been relying on Jesus. If you don't read her story, you will sadly be missing something so valuable, all this other stuff isn't even important.  You are my hero Brooklyn. 

There is Brandon, he is young too, he has a beautiful phamily. But cancer came back calling his name.  He went to the  light on February 22, 2022.  His family had asked everyone to turn on a light or light a candle for him. Please do this for Brandon. They  would greatly appreciate you and your prayers also. Brandon you are my hero too. We are lighting up our home for you. while you are lighting up heaven.

My cousin Mary received double news, both of her cancers, breast and lung are stage I. They were caught early enough and jumped the gun telling her before the final labs. She asks for prayer. She has such a strong heart, she wants to beat these nasty diseases. She is a Tough Chick.

Mary my nephews wife needs the kidney transplant. Prayer is very welcome. She is a Touch Chick.

Pray for Susan. She is a tough chick, because she is a retiree. She felt awful, sinus infection but her back hurt. Hmmmm......fluid on the lungs? Yep! But one doctor who saw her insisted she needed an MRI. She declined. Fortunately the doctor who waited to see her x-rays saw the fluid, ordered an anti-biotic and voila home she went. She is disgusted with the medical field. Medicine is becoming more about the cash flow and less about the care.  Her mom had given her a tin of teas and she is enjoying all the natural goodness of cloves, cinnamon, and  lots of goodness to warm her while she rests and heals.  You rock Susan!

Lulu is always a good aw....on Mondays! She is a good pup. a great mom and a sweet little darling.


Aw.....Love is....always knows the best things in life are not always easy but Love is... knows they can be fun too.

Hoping this new week is a good one for you. 

How lonely sets the city
That was full of people!
How like a window is she,
Who is great among the nations!
The Princess among the provinces.
Has become a slave. Lamentations 11

Feline Friday and Pink Saturday

 

Boots was a one of a kind cat. He was so kind. I think about him every single day. He had a bit of an air about him but he was simply kind. I sure miss him. His anniversary is approaching. Ten whole years without my boy. I am still sad for myself because I miss him so much. 


He was so regal. A real AristoCat! Classy and smart and loving.  Boots, you were the best feline friend a girl could have.


I like to think my boy is watching me from the heavens above. I am thinking pink so please visit Beverly and all the Pinkies too for Pink Saturday. 

Prayers for Jason. He is our niece Jamie's sweetheart and he lost his stepmom tonight.  He just spoke with her and she suddenly became very will. They found a tumor on her aorta. He was planning to head to Florida in the morning but he just received the call she passed away. Jason is a really wonderful guy so please pray for him and his phamily. Thank you.

Wordless Wednesday

 


please visit Sandee 
It is always hard for me to be wordless on Wednesday. 
At my other blog My Tata's Cottage did my Wordless Wednesday post and added my sister's heavenly anniversary today (21 years) and my pup Lulu's 4th birthday! I had a mix up today so I apologize. It is hard to think in this frigid cold weather we have. 

THANKFUL THURSDAY

 Thankful Thursday

Sharing my thankful's today. The cold is suppose to go away so thankful for some sunshine and warmer days. 


The birthday boy had a glow in the dark birthday t shirt. We were babysitting them at their home one evening. Blake wanted something from his room so we all went upstairs . Brody was looking at all the shirts hanging in his brother's closet and he looked at me and said "Grandma, we have a lot of shirts! I had to chuckle.  He was so thankful to have so many shirts with his brother. They match too. 


Avery and I love our matching t shirts/We have lots of them. I just found  matching Super Mario t shirts for us, they were on a clearance so  $10 off their original price.  We have three different Tom & Jerry t shirts, Mickey and Snoopy, even a Valentine t shirts that matches up when we stand together. hahaha


Our favorite Kentucky Basketball Shirts.


We are thankful for all the fun t shirts we have.  Thankful for everything in our lives. 

Wordless Wednesday


I am not very wordless on most Wednesday's but at the birthday Friday this young fellow asked me to snap his photo with Duke who belongs to Brittany and Jeremy and their clan. I mixed up my Wordless Wednesday and Thankful Thursday posts. Thankful for the kindness over at Thankful Thursday who made a comment before I Updated it all. THANK YOU for your kind hearts.

Be kind, Be thankful, Be generous with your smiles. Have a blessed and beautiful evening and new day. God willing.

Tuesday 4 and More Thoughts

 PONDERING ODDS AND ENDS

Tuesday 4

Welcome to ToniTaddeo's Tuesday 4 kept up in her memory. We offer 4 questions for you to ponder and consider each week.  Hopefully they  make you stop and think and even get know yourself  and other bloggers a bit better .

Here we go discussing some personal thoughts this week...

1. Do you have a favorite gemstone! Why is it!

For my 16th birthday my dad bought me a birthday ring, December , blue topaz. I still have that ring although I need to have it resized. It is very special to me because my dad picked it out and he and I had a wonderful relationship. .

2. Do you know and understand the religious doctrines of your faith?\

Although raised a Catholic and will never forget the  things my folks gave up to educate myself and my four siblings in the Catholic school system . I am a born again Christian. I am not a traditional "religion" person . I rely solely on faith in God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I did learn how important it was to have faith in Jesus early in my life. 

It is interesting because as I write this my husband shared an article which is quite lengthy by Tim LaHaye (1926-2016). It is about the coming end times and the major players (China and Russia). My friend Joyce always says, if you read the bible you would totally understand what is happening and going on in the world.

I'll keep trusting God, following Jesus and praying for the world.

3. Do you have a favorite décor style, as in classical, traditional, modern, mid-century, colonial, etc.? What do you like about it?

I am kind of all over the place. I love the farmhouse look, I like simplicity. I am not big on formal. why have nice things if only to gaze upon them? One thing is certain, I am not nor will I ever be a minimalist! I need no one to spark my joy! I have Jesus for that! My sister Patsy was a colonial lover. She had the most lovely furnishings. She had a "gossip" bench that sweet little seat where you kept your landline and could sit and chat. I think of her when I see one pop up sometimes. I love comfort and do not like sofas or chairs that look pretty but hurt you more than keep you cozy. 

4. Are there any books or movies you want to see this summer? I am knee deep in reading and somedays the entire day is gone before I realize I spent most of it reading a good book. We recently watched a Pixar movie, "Encanto" with our kids. Our son Jeremy has lights around his TV so when the music changes moods so do the lights. I am not too tech savvy but it was fun seeing those pretty lights. We do not go to movies anymore. It has gotten too expensive and too many people still kick the back of your seat and others talk too much. I prefer watching movies at home.  We have popcorn if we want it and the Dollar Tree still sells the movie candy for $1.25  a box. You need a bank loan for the movies today. 


Always a smile for these two fellows.
