Friday Funnies

With all the news lately about the subzero weather and snow that
the Midwest and east coast areas are experiencing, we shouldn't
forget that Phoenix also has its share of devastating weather in the last couple weeks.

Attached is a photo showing damage to a home from a recent storm
that passed through the Phoenix area. It really makes you cherish what
you have, and reminds us not to take life for granted.






Kim is hosting more Friday Funnies at Homesteader’s Heart. Have a great Friday!

    That cracks me up, Mary! Since I'm an Arizonan myself, I must say how much hubby and I enjoy the incredible storms here. The more the wind & the louder the thunder, the happier we are. It's an event we relish, unlike our days in WA State when it was a "condition", and not an event at all.

    Hugs,
    Kathleen

    My post, another sister's post...talking about how life is short and we must learn to cherish things here...then yours...except yours is better :) Funny. Mine was too serious, you needed "tissues"... :) I hate it when I go to work and the wind gusts are strong. One time, it was so strong I had my son ran after the trash bin being blown by the wind down our street. He had a good laugh though, while his mommy was rolling on the floor!

    Have a great weekend sister and God bless you always. Love to you.

    By the way, I am the one who thinks you are ornery! The last comment from Kayla was really from me!! Sorry! I was logged in under my son's girlfriends account. I am using his computer today. It is taking me awhile to get into thinking mode today. :) Hope you have a great day!!

    That is too funny. I love when they scoot all over the deck as the wind blows them where they can! That is really some storm damage!

    I love the storms we have in Phoenix. When it rains I get excited. It's so different from New York where I grew up. When it rained there, it was all day. You know how it is here.

    Next time I hope you might be able to get into town and join Sassy Granny and me.

    Blessings and love,
    Debbie

The Daisy House

I work at my desktop with the children at my feet.  A makeshift area rug made of white butcher paper lines the floor where the baby, crayon in hand, imitates her big sister.  Sister focuses on the finishing touches of the house she designed.  The catchy children’s song, Wheels of the Bus, blasts from the Toddler Station on Pandora Radio. Six year old Sookie unveils her masterpiece and I ooh and awe at the sketch.  “It’s a daisy house!”  I exclaim.  “I love the colors.  I wonder what the inside looks like.”  Without hesitating, Sookie describes each room.  “There are five rooms and they are all different colors.  One is Mint Chip, another Strawberry.  There is a Vanilla room, and a Cookies & Cream room and the last room is Rocky Road.  You have to wear a sweater inside because it is very cold.” “A house made of ice cream,” I reply.  “It sounds heavenly!” I dug into my Bible readings that morning ...

Marriage Tip #44: Do What He Wants

I thought about our upcoming anniversary.   I prayed one morning for the marriages in my family, and a sentence about my own dropped in my spirit:  “ Do What He Wants .”  I paused, “Really?”  He’s his own man.  What if I end up in the wilderness camping by night and target shooting by day?  What if a coyote decides to have me as a late night snack? We celebrated our anniversary early this year, Before the kids come next week.   And we did it his way . This is how it happened. I never asked him about a plan or even mentioned our day.  I remember how it all unfolded at the roundabout just as we drove into Sedona.  He asked me if I would like to go to a baseball game.  I responded excitedly, “Yeah!”  Before the day was over, he purchased tickets for a Diamondbacks home game. He printed them out.  He booked a hotel room so we wouldn’t have to drive home from the city after the late evening game. ...

A Memorial Day Reflection

  Memorial Day is always noteworthy for me and my girls.  Next Thursday marks the third year of missing their father, my husband. So many thoughts  run through my mind.  The journey of loss takes on various emotions.  The strongest feeling, at first, was emptiness.  In a split second, I would forget he departed forever.  I imagined things I needed to talk to him about when he got back home.  My mind is realistic now.  He's not coming back.  There will be no more times of sitting on the porch swing together on the front deck staring at the moon and the stars.  He would tell me all he knew about the majestic night sky. I have so much I wish I could tell him, like the excitement of seeing our oldest grandchild make a decision to follow Jesus and get baptized on Mother's Day!  And our little Amy, 11 years old, I wish he could have seen her on stage receiving her induction to the National Honor Society. Our daughters have their own ...
