Seneca

HAPPY SUNDAY !

Good News for this morning, DDIL # 5 is home and doing very well. DS#5 called me yesterday morning to let me know. He also let me know about his adventure the night before. When he got home from the hospital he let the dogs out in the fenced backyard. A few minutes later one returned to the door and boy did he smell – a skunk had sprayed him. Needless to say they both had to have several baths…and it was afternight midnight before he got some sleep. There’s nothing like a little adventure in your life !

As usual I’m off to church this morning and will be praying for all of you !

Have a great day ! Another wonderful one on the Way !

Please pray for God's protection of our troops and HIS wisdom for their commanders.

Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior

 GOD BLESS YOU !

TODAY IS…MAPLE SYRUP DAY !

Making maple syrup is the oldest agricultural enterprise in the U.S. A maple tree needs to be about 45 years old and 12 inches in diameter before it is tapped. A single tap will produce about 10 gallons of sap, and it takes 30-50 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of maple syrup. Wow!

TODAY’S SMILE

KITCHEN SIGN LANQUAGE

Martha Stewart DOESN'T live here!!

 

Ring bell for maid service.

If no answer, do it yourself!

 

I clean house every other day.

Today is the other day.

 

If you write in the dust, please don't date it!

If you don't like my standards of cooking ... lower your standards.

 

My house was clean last week, too bad you missed it!

 

I came, I saw, I decided to order take out.

 

A messy kitchen is a happy kitchen, and this kitchen is DELIRIOUS.

 

This is NOT Burger King ... you get it MY way or you don't get anything.

 

Countless numbers of people have eaten in this kitchen and gone on to lead normal lives.

 

A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand.

 

I'm creative; you can't expect me to be tidy too!

 

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
