Happy Thanksgiving

I hope wherever you are, that your Thanksgiving is wonderful and that you are truly blessed. For the first time ever, I won't see my parents or my siblings for this holiday. I'll miss them terribly, but all of my siblings came to help me celebrate Thanksgiving in the big town of Jasper, AR this past Sunday. That's right-they all came to my house and I hope everyone had a good time. I certainly did. I'm so lucky to have grown up with 3 siblings-3 siblings that have been my friends and continue to love me almost as much as I love and adore each one of them.

Succulent Pinterest success

Thumbing through pinterest one day, I saw a post on how to start succulents. Think little indoor plants that require very little water. I tried once and got nothing but rotted leaves. Then, I thought about it-these are the same people that said violets start roots at six weeks-wrong it's more like eight to eleven weeks. So I tried it again and eureka! Little succulents have started.

Just Wondering

My youngest daughter, Lauren, visited over the week and I've started the process of cleaning all the sheets. Yesterday, I put clean sheets on the bed and left for work. Not quite finished-no pillow cases or comforter on it. Today, I went to put the pillow cases on pillows and on the bed-right smack in the middle of the bed was a shiny penny. I fluffed the sheets before putting them on. No one has been in that room but me and the dogs. I refuse to believe that one of them picked up a coin in their mouth and jumped on the bed with it. The bed's an old one with high foot boards-so I can't lean over the bed and smooth out the middle-there's no way anything could have fallen out of my pocket(and I wasn't wearing anything with pockets). So where did that penny come from? There's no hole in the ceiling.
Then I remember "when an angel misses you-they toss a penny down. Sometimes just to cheer you up and to make a smile out of a frown"
Yes, I believe in angels but I'm not sure they can throw pennies. But the penny is there and the dogs aren't talking.
