Embarassing

Why is it titled embarrassing? Because I let two wonderful women in my pig sty of a home today. I was so embarrassed, but as a wise "older lady" told me it is more Blessed to Give than to receive. And that during this time in my life....I need to be on the receiving end and let others be blessed by giving. Anyway....they did my dishes, folded my laundry, and even brought me dinner! Isn't that just the sweetest thing they could do! I guess I need to also say what prompted them to do this (probably.) You all know I hurt myself pretty bad over a week ago. Well last night everything was fine and then all of a sudden I had a pain in my chest and back....my arm was sort of numb and after an hour my face got a little tingly. It was gone this morning. Not real sure what's going on with that, but it may have something to do with my back or something. But enough about that. I wanted to say THANK YOU to Mrs. Schwartz and Miss Schwartz for the help today. Blessings to you. :)

Well, darling. I'm sorry to hear about your painful (and probably scary) episode. I'm glad you got to spend time with the ladies. :-D
I wish I had a car, so I could come.

Show and Tell Friday (10/5)

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn'

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Today I am taking part in Kelli's Show and Tell and her Giving Thanks week. Last Saturday I had the chance to do something I had never done before. I put together a gingerbread house with my MIL and my children. My MIL made the gingerbread and then she had me help her assemble it and then decorate it. We didn't finish it all, but we hope to finish it this afternoon since she has the day off. I am pretty proud of myself. Next year maybe the children and I can do this as a school project/activity. So...here is the gingerbread house in all it's glory. I hope to post a finished

Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa
