Happy New Year 2011

PRAYING IN 2011
Praying in 2011...
 here's praying for:
 BETTER HEALTH,
eating more fruits & veggies, preferably from my garden.
Remember this photo from this summer...Yum!! Nothing better than than an Alabama tomato grown in this red dirt!
 Stronger Family Ties...
this pic was from Black Friday 2010.  I plan to visit sister Sarah in the summer and have more lunch dates with my friends & family.
Taking Time for Friends..Old & New 
Here I am with High School friend Pam from West Virginia who is a local TV anchor in Birmingham and ONLY lives less than 2 hrs. from me!  I haven't seen her in over 20 yrs.  SHAME ON ME!!  I'm making a date with each of you... Pam, Debbie, Gina, Linda, Norma, Celina, Pam O, Donna, and my list will grow!
 GOTTA LOVE THE 80'S
KINDER WORDS, MENDING FENCES

PICKING MY BATTLES, BEING AN ENCOURAGER

LESS WORRY, MORE GRAITITUDE
 MORE PRAISING
MORE NAPS, BETTER SLEEPING HABITS
MORE QUILTING & PROJECTS IN THE SEWING CAVE, HANDMADE  GIFTS READY FOR CHRISTMAS 2011
MORE TIME WITH ROGER
ROGER'S BIRTHDAY DINNER 2009 
I want the two of us to go camping and I even agree to go fishing with him more often simply because he wants me to come with him.  I usually find an excuse but no excuses this year.  He's taking me to Quilt-fest in the Smokey Mtns. in March so the least I can do is go fishing a few times 
LESS TIME ON THE COMPUTER IN THE EVENINGS DURING OUR TV TIME...SOUNDS LIKE  A WEIRD WAY TO "BE TOGETHER" BUT ROGER & I HAVE CERTAIN SHOWS THAT WE ENJOY WATCHING TOGETHER, LAUGHING, FIGURING OUT THE PLOT, TALKING ABOUT IT LATER, ETC...HEY, IT WORKS FOR US!!.
Keeping up with my blogging on a regular basis DURING SCOTT"S NAP TIME PREFERABLY,  
 This is my favorite blog to follow and the first one I read every morning.  I've even been a guest blogger back in November.  I've been inspired to quilt more and create more by the very creative ladies who visit on this blog.  To each of you, may I send my heartfelt wish for a wonderful New Year 2011!
 READ MORE BOOKS
TO MY GRANDCHILDREN AND MYSELF 
MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT CHURCH 
We are 33 yr. members of our home church but I'm having "issues" with the direction our church is going.  We've attended another local Baptist church for over a year however, #1 husband feels we need to go back to home church, get involved once again, pray, and let God handle the rest.  I'm going to trust #1's judgment because I know he has put a lot of thought, tears and prayer into this decision.  SO...more quiet times for me!!!
SHARE MY FAITH MORE OFTEN 
VOLUNTEER AT LIBRARY
INQUIRE ABOUT TRAINING TO BECOME A HELPLINE CALL VOLUNTEER
 PRAY FOR GRANDSON JAMES
James was so excited to talk with this Para-Olympic athlete and see another person in a wheelchair like him.

All these things I pray for in the name of Jesus Christ
AMEN

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011

  5. Praying to our Lord is the perfect start to the New Year! I hope you will have the energy and stamina to make this your best year yet. It is so good to set goals, and to make spending time with God and our family a priority. I pray God will honor your sweet heart with much love & sweet joys for the coming year!!
