What a bargain


When we first noticed this chair sitting out in front of a house with the word "Free"...we figured something was wrong with it..like animal smell or cigarette.  As we got closer to inspect there was just a faint musty odor.   And the arms had some sort of grease stain.  The lady assured me that it sat unused for 8 yrs on their back porch.  Well..I'm here to say...I'm using something like Shout on the dirty areas with a tooth brush...then going over those areas with my carpet/upholstery cleaning wand...and so far its working.   The brand is Lazy Boy.   Its a rocker/recliner.   And just what we'd been looking for in our living room.   We used to have a fairly nice, but overly large recliner to go with our sofa...however something had broken down and we ended up giving it to my brother.  Well..he said all it needed was a spring.  Well--phooey.   We'd been missing our chair so badly..cause all we had to sit on was the sofa.  I would say this is a blessing!   After all, furniture is rather expensive..especially the name brands...and that's what we'd been hoping to get (someday).   Here's another picture..(I'm still in the process of cleaning it).   

Psalm 37:4

Bad Girls


I think my next read or (book) will be this one..it looks quite interesting!  I love Liz Curtis Higgs books I always have...especially the funny ones.  Talk about laughing until I cried.. well that's an understatement.   A friend gave me a book~and I'm finally reading it.   Sometimes it takes awhile to settle down to read.  My mind is always going in 10 different directions ( it seems)...so it does take a while.  Once I do though, watch out~wild horses can't drag me away from a good, in depth story. If you've never heard of Liz..click on her name above and check out her page...you'll be glad you did.

If you're not hungry yet...you will be.  Focus on all that good food..fried crunchy food.  Ummmm..I can taste it now.   I'll take the grilled chicken #4 please, thank you!

Ramblings

I knew the pictures had to be someplace, so I found my little disk slipped it in my camera and there they were. Yea!   
Posting with my signature..presents some problems...I have to go to edit HTML tab and click the signature thing down so I can post...its not a huge problem just annoying.   Its nice to have a signature.  Now if I can only post my button.  Strange huh...cannot seem to wrap my mind around html... its like learning how to cross-stitch all over again.   I'm not big on cross-stitch, so that's why I mentioned it. 

More ramblings here... I got to thinking about my Aunt..she is 90 something..and isn't in the best of health.  In fact, the last thing I heard was she may not have long on this earth.   I feel sad.  I feel bad how the news effects my mother.  Prayer is always welcome at a time like this.  To help ease the pain and help bring comfort.  This is all I can do.  Worrying doesn't help.  What can worry do?  Absolutely nothing.  
And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.  Matthew 21:22      I'm having to remind myself of the importance of prayer and how it changes things.   
What to do when you feel worried?  Cast all your care upon Him, (Jesus), for He cares for you.  I peter 5:7

When you lie down, you will not be afraid; Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet.  proverbs 3:24

He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust."  Psalm 91:1-2

We can have rest, we can experience peace..if we allow ourselves to bathe in God's presence.
