Happy Holiday Shopping, Enjoy Black Friday [the origin of "black Friday" is because there are so many shoppers businesses do well and when tracking funds/profits etc. "in the red" is a phrase used when they are below production cost...to show this on the record the ink was red and when they were making a profit the records were kept in black ink.] .....and I'm simply up late bc I took an after Turkey nap...but shoppers on the East Coast may be just getting started on their early bird specials. night.

Thanksgiving was quiet and peaceful. We sold our parakeets and the first snow of the season
acended on us. We watched the soft flakes gently float to the earth. We looked out over the river and rested in each other's arms and sang praises to Our Lord. It was a near perfect holiday. Thank YOu Lord, for everything...

Happy Thanksgiving!

I recently read an encouraging post in Joni's blog @ rodparsley.com about choosing to be grateful to the LORD especially when we don't feel like it! Enjoy these kids "attitude of gratitude" and have a Thankful Thanksgiving!

"The LORD will accomplish what concerns me; Your lovingkindness, O LORD, is everlasting; Do not forsake the works of Your hands." Psalm 138:8

"I wanted you to see what real courage is... It's when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what." ~Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird

Word from Prophetess Adelina Carter: "Because you have chosen love I will give you the desires of your heart."

SHINE!!!
