Happiness is only found

And thinking of all folks we meet

not as strangers, but as brothers.

Happy is he who is kind to the poor.

Many Moons Ago

There is light at the end of the tunnel

2012-02-20T19:47:00.002-05:00

Surgery is behind me. I'm having therapy 2 times a week. I am very sore most of the time but my hip doesn't hurt; just the muscles in my left leg. I'm not sorry I had the surgery but sometimes I wonder when I will feel really good again. I'm not a complainer but this has been a real trip for me. I still use the cane when I go out. I don't trust my balance yet.

Today after therapy I had so much pain so I thought I would visit from friends in the local nursing home. Seeing other peoples misery sometimes helps me to not feel sorry for my shelf.
I know my aches and pains will be behind me someday.

The first week is past

2012-01-25T22:28:00.004-05:00

I had my hip replacement surgery on January 18. I did every well with it. I came home again on Friday. I've had a fair amount of pain but it is getting better very day. I'm walking with the help of a walker and should be using the cane very soon. I am so glad surgery is behind me. My husband is taking very good care of me; doing the laundry and fixing mealsl etc. I still rest and sleep alot along with my exercises that need to be done 3 times a day. Hope everyone is having a fine day.

The first week is past.

2012-01-25T22:28:00.001-05:00

Been gone to long.........

2012-01-10T09:12:00.002-05:00

I haven't written anything on my blog for a long time. I'm dealing with a lot of pain and stress lately. I may have mentoned that I am set up for a total knee replacement on January 18. I am so uncomfortable most of the time. I don't sleep well. I now have trouble sitting, as well as standing, for any length of time.
Yesterday I had my pre-testing (ekg, chest x-ray, blood work, etc) done and also my husband and I went to a class to learn more about the surgery and recovery. I would like to" run the other way" at this point but I know I do need the surgery. I'm sure I will do okay. The waiting is hard........

THOUGHT FOR THURSDAY

2011-12-15T06:00:00.000-05:00

We were created for community, fashioned for fellowship, and formed for a family, and none of us can fulfill God's purpose by ourselves. A good reminder as we enjoy our Christmas family gatherings.

A roast with the bone in will cook faster than a boneless roast. The bone carries the heat to the inside more quickly.

Blessed Sunday

2011-12-05T09:02:00.002-05:00

I had a busy Sunday. We witnessed an adult baptism/profession of faith of a young lady who wished to join our church. I have the privilege of being her mentor. She was caught up for many years in a false religion; having left that, she was searching for something. God led her to our church . I am so glad she found a church home where she will be loved and cared for.

Sunday evening we went to the Fine Arts Center for the presentation of "Light Looked Down and the Word Became Flash" sung by the Allendale Community Choir. Our daughter-in-law sang in it. It was beautifully done.

TIP FOR TUESDAY

2011-11-08T06:00:00.000-05:00

Avoid stuck-on wax - Spray the inside of each hold lightly with non-stick vegetable spray before putting the candle in. The wax will pop right out for easy cleaning.

Busy weekend

2011-11-07T08:56:00.002-05:00

Sunday was a busy day. Beside setting aside time for worship we visited families at two funeral homes. Two godly ladies were taken to their eternal home ; one last Thursday and one on Friday. Their funeral services are this morning at 11. Both were in their late 80s and had lived their last days in a nursing home. So it is the kids loss but definitely their GAIN.

I am always troubled about something when I go to a funeral home. So often it sounds like everyone is having such a great time seeing old friends/relatives that one forgets that there is a grieving family there. I know it is a time of healing but sometime there is just too much noise. Does anyone else feel this way? I remember when I was the grieving person and everyone was laughing and having a good time I wanted to say "listen up people - I just lost someone who was very dear to me - it is not funny! I don't feel like laughing right now - maybe later you can tell me that funny story. Maybe I have it all wrong - I did appreciate them coming; that meant allot to me; the hugs, the "I'm praying for you" etc. just not all the noise. I would like your thoughts on this. Maybe you can help me see it a different way. Thanks for listening..........

A quote from Esther York Burkholder -

Giving is a joy if we do it in the right spirit.

It all depends on whether we think of it as "What can I spare?" or "What can I share?"

TIP FOR TUESDAY

Is your homemade soup to salty? Add sliced raw potato to absorb the salt. Remove slices when they began to soften if you don't want to eat them. Works for me!

SUNDAY BLESSINGS

2011-10-10T06:00:00.000-04:00

We had a busy Sunday. Doug (our future grandson) was baptized and made profession of his faith at our morning worship service today. He also sang "The Old Rugged Cross" as his testimony. Doug and our grand daughter Melissa are getting married on this coming Saturday. They just purchased a home in Allendale so they had us over to see the house. It's been a good day!

TIP FOR TUESDAY

2011-10-04T06:00:00.000-04:00

Do you have a problem with spiders and cobwebs at this time of the year? I do. We live in a wooded area and we get a lot of daddy long-legs at this time of the year.

Secure an old sock on a yardstick with rubber bands and use it to get cobwebs out of the corners and high places. Works for me.

Monday Shopping

2011-10-03T08:28:00.002-04:00

I'm going shopping (2 p's or 1? I'm never sure) anyway I'm going shopping with my daughter
today. My hip is still giving me grief but I hope it holds out while we are away. Hopefully we will have time for a bite to eat somewhere afterwards. Neither one of us are great shoppers so it will be a quick trip. Always nice to spend time with Patty.

Forgotten Man Ministries

2011-09-30T07:55:00.002-04:00

Thursday evening I attended the Forgotten Man Ministries Banquet at Bauer CRC. A delicious dinner was prepared by Beechwood Inn Restaurant. Information was given about the Ottawa County Jail. Two inmates spoke of their time at the jail and how the Bible class helped to show them a better way to live. The jail has a host of volunteers, men and women, who bring the Good News of the Gospel each week. Our County Sheriff allows the volunteers to come in. Not every jail allows this. They thank God for this privilege. Not everyone changes their live but thank God for those who do. It was a worthwhile time spent.

I am back from a few days at Mears camp grounds with family and friends.

My tip is for cleaning the lint from my sewing machine. A well washed and dried mascara brush will clean bobbin and shuttle carriers in the sewing machine. It fits into those tight places and you can twist it around to pick up lint. Works for me!

TIP FOR TUESDAY

2011-09-20T06:00:00.000-04:00

Take the perfumed sample paper inserts from magazines and tuck them into your lingerie drawers, clothing or linen closets, and with your stationery and greeting cards for free aschets.

2011-09-13T06:00:00.000-04:00

When you want only one slice of onion for a burger or other sandwich, there is no need to peel the whole onion. Slice through the middle of the onion, cut off one slice, put the two parts back together, then wrap or seal in a plastic bag and refrigerate.

2011-09-11T21:16:00.000-04:00

We spent some time at the Chateau Chantal Vineyard - Winery - B & B in Traverse City last week. We had a sunny day and vineyard was beautiful. We went with my two brothers and their wives and we had a great time.

THOUGHT FOR THURSDAY

Jumping to conclusions is not half as good

exercise as digging for the facts.

LABOR DAY

2011-09-04T12:57:00.002-04:00

Hope you're enjoying Labor Day with family and friends. Summer is past; autumn/fall will soon be here. We have a few trees turning fall colors already. Seems good to have the weather a little cooler.
We are off to Traverse City for a few days with family. Stay safe and enjoy the day.

Pasta Cooking: Ending boil-over and Pasta Stuck to the bottom of the kettle.
Grease the pot (or spray with non-stick spray) before putting the water in to boil. Note: Also spray the colander so that draining pasta won't stick to it.

Enjoy your day!

Feeling better

2011-08-29T06:00:00.000-04:00

I'm finally feeling better although I still can't hear very well. Seems so good to not be so tired all the time. Had a wonderful day of worship today; had a outdoor worship service with our neighboring church this evening. The weather was beautiful - big bouncy white clouds and a lot of sunshine. Hard to imagine hurricane Irene on the east coast. I'm keeping those people in my prayers. Have a great day.

I've been sick

2011-08-19T06:00:00.000-04:00

Last Wednesday I came down with a bad cold. I coughed constantly, day and night. I can't hear, having both ears closed off. Finally this pass Wednesday I went to the doctor. She says I have acute bronchitis and a double ear infection. She put me on azithromycin and a cough syrup with codine. I don't cough as much anymore but stay very tired and light headed.

When I watch TV I have the volume up as far as it can go because I can't hear. It is driving my husband crazy. Hopefully it won't be long before my hearing is back.

THOUGHT FOR THURSDAY

2011-08-11T06:00:00.001-04:00

Do not sit and idly wish for wider, new dimensions where you can put in practice all your good intentions, but at the spot God placed you, begin at once to do little things to brighten up the lives surrounding you.

Micowave Tip: When warming a micowave dinner which should be rotated during cooking place a wooden toothpick under the front of the dish, then move it with the dish as you rotate it. For example, start at 6 o'clock; move to 9; then 12, and so on. You can tell at a glance how often the dish was turned. Works for Me!

Family Gathering

2011-08-08T03:22:00.003-04:00

My family (my sister/husband, and six brothers/wifes) spent the day together at my sisters cottage in Upper Silver Lake. It was a beautiful day. Some of my family aren't so young any more so it is very nice to all spend some time together. Would you believe I took my camera along but forgot to take pictures? I thought of it when we were leaving to go home. Next time we get together I am going to tie my camera around my neck!

THOUGHT FOR THURSDAY

2011-08-04T06:00:00.000-04:00

If you were another person, would you like to be a friend of yours?

I'm asking God to help me to be sensitive to the needs of

those close to me.

Tip for Tuesday

2011-08-02T06:00:00.000-04:00

When re-wrapping meats for the freezer , cut the label off the original grocery package and tape it to the newly wrapped one. The label has all the information- type of meat, date of purchase and weight. No more guessing whats in the package.

BACK HOME

2011-08-01T09:22:00.002-04:00

We have returned home from our vacation. Had a great time with family and friends; very hot and a lot of rain. I was afraid our little trailer would float right out of the park.
You should have seen the weeds in our flower garden when we returned home. Our flowers looked great too. All this rain has helped everything look so healthy but it does the same thing for the weeds.
So we have lots of work to catch up on - laundry, ironing, weeding, cleaning..........the list goes on and on. It good to be home!!

TIP FOR TUESDAY

2011-07-12T06:00:00.000-04:00

Storing Tip: If you don't use up a package of bacon quickly, try freezing individuals strips; the bacon stays fresh and you can take out as many slices as you need. Place individual slices on a cookie sheet and freeze quickly. Then stack the frozen strips in a freezer-safe container with waxed paper between layers. Use the waxed paper from cereal boxes for this.

From a Christians View

2011-07-11T09:41:00.002-04:00

Our pastor's message yesterday was taken from John 8 where Jesus is making some outragous claims about himself. The people did not understand how Jesus could say the things He did.

We as Christian understand there never was a time when Jesus was not here.
For us: Jesus is the Son of God and is timeless. God's love for us has no beginning or end. And there never was a time that God does not love us.

We can trust Jesus with our past, present and our future. The past need not be a burden to us. We can let go of those awful memories because Jesus holds something more for us. The present need not overwhelm us. With Jesus each moment is the doorway to eternity. The future need not scare us. We can face the future because Jesus is already there.

If we trust Jesus, there is no room for despair. As the saying goes, "I don't know what the future holds but I know the One who holds the future."

I must admit that message was what I needed to hear. Maybe there is someone out there who needs to hear it too. Have a blessed day!

A Thought for Thursday

2011-07-07T06:00:00.000-04:00

My Morning Request

I asked the Lord to bless me

As I began my day.

To open up my heart to all

I meet along the way.

I gave thanks unto my God

When daylight turned to night,

Hoping I had pleased my God

In doing what was right.

It makes the workload easier

When sharing with a friend,

Who is part and parcel of your life

Until the very end.

A friend of mine droped a sewing needle while sewing and later steped on it. It went pretty far into her foot and was very painful. My tip for Tuesday would let her avoid this pain. Ouch!!

Keep a small magnet in your sewing kit to help you find and pick up pins and needles quickly.

Busy Sunday

2011-06-27T06:00:00.001-04:00

We had Vacation Bible School at our church last week. Today was VBS Sunday. The kids gave a program along with our Pastor giving a message about what they learned during VBS. After the service we had a Ice Cream Social so we could get to know the children and families that came but are not a part of our church family. My 2 grandchildren (Emily and Melissa) were the co-chairpersons for VBS this year. They did a great job organizing everything and they had some wonderful helpers.

We had the family over for a belated Fathers Day dinner today. We ate outside under the trees. What a beautiful day for an outdoor picnic! And would you believe it? I forgot to take pictures.

This evening our church service was combined with our neighboring Reformed church. A nice way to end the day.

Bad storm on Wednesday

2011-06-23T22:21:00.000-04:00

We had a very bad wind/rain storm in our area on Wednesday.
We had alot of branches and alot of flooding. This picture is taken of
a yard in our neighborhood. These were beautiful maple trees
which stood in that yard for years. Fortunately nothing hit the house or barn.
Much of the area were without electricity.
Our creek ran into our pond so our pond is looking really bad right now.
I do not remember ever experiencing such a awful scary storm before.

I came across this saying the other day and thought true it is............

The quickest way to find something lost

around the house is to buy a replacement.

There is no replacement with you, God.

Be with me each day.

Tip for Tuesday

2011-06-21T06:00:00.000-04:00

Sometimes cleaning a cheese grater is more time-consuming than shredding the cheese because of the cheesy coating that quickly accumulates on the sharp ridges. You can shorten the cleanup by spraying the grater with nonstick cooking spray before each use. Then use an old toothbrush to scrub the tiny spaces after you're done.

Happy Fathers Day

2011-06-19T06:00:00.001-04:00

I'm thinking today of my father. I do not have any memories of living with my father. As I have written before my mother died when I was very young and after she died I and the youngest two brothers went to live with an uncle and aunt. There were 8 children in all.

Every Sunday my dad and the other siblings would come to our house for dinner and visit. What I remember most is sitting on my Daddy's lap when he came to visit. He had black hair which he combed straight back (without a part). I would get my little comb and play with his hair. I would put a part in it or comb it all down over his face etc. He never complain about this. I guess he just liked it that his little girl would sit on his lap. I know he missed me not living with him and only seeing me on the Sunday.

As time went on my uncle really became my father. I never called him Dad. He was always Uncle Pete but he was my dad in every sense of the word. When I married my Uncle Pete walked me to the front to my husband-to-be. My dad sat in the front row with a big smile on his face.

So I really had the love of two Dads. Both of them are waiting for me in heaven.

Quick-Fix, Removing Gummy Glue:

To soften gummy glue on a glass or plastic jar, put it in the microwave with a towel over it; set on Low and check it every few seconds or so. The heat softens the glue and you can pull the label off easily.

It's been a busy few weeks. Two high school graduations - 5 open houses for Graduates. But what a fun time for our grandkids and friends.
It was about 90 degrees for one of the open houses and a week later it was 70 degrees for the next one. This Spring the weather is so crazy. But I'm not complaining. We haven't had tornadoes or other bad weather, just strange with first hot and now cold. And to think it is the middle of June already. Where is the summer going.................

When you do what you do

with a will and a smile,

Everything that you do

will seem twice as worthwhile.

Today concentrate on your attitude and your expression.

If you wear a smile you're bound to appear happier and you

might just find you are happier.

Enjoy your day!!
