Newest pinkeeps- I love the wooden one- a old treen cup with carved rings!
Making Signs- Printer, Carbon Paper, & Paint!
Goodwillin'...
Wreaths- Target, $1 for 2. Pumpkins- Goodwill, $.50
The beginnings of Sandy (Although she has not made landfall yet.)
Check out my little stove- it's my smore maker and some vintage pans... Hope I don't have to use it!
How much rain we have since this morning (It is now 11:30 am). I am tracking it on my chalkboard in the hall. Rain and wind picking up. It is not supposed to be here until tonight. Already scary now. I am going to go take a shower, make brownies, and cook chicken before the power goes out.
Well, I am all up-to-date now with my posts! I am praying for you all, and I hope you are all safe and well!
I will leave you with the song from my childhood that has just popped in my brain the last few days...
"How Can I Fear?”
by Ron Hamilton (Patch the Pirate)
WHEN SHADOWS FALL AND THE NIGHT COVERS ALL
THERE ARE THINGS THAT MY EYES CAN NOT SEE,
I’LL NEVER FEAR FOR THE SAVIOUR IS NEAR;
MY LORD ABIDES WITH ME.
HOW CAN I FEAR? JESUS IS NEAR,
HE EVER WATCHES OVER ME.
WORRIES ALL CEASE, HE GIVES ME PEACE.
HOW CAN I FEAR WITH JESUS?
THERE ARE THINGS THAT MY EYES CAN NOT SEE,
I’LL NEVER FEAR FOR THE SAVIOUR IS NEAR;
MY LORD ABIDES WITH ME.
HOW CAN I FEAR? JESUS IS NEAR,
HE EVER WATCHES OVER ME.
WORRIES ALL CEASE, HE GIVES ME PEACE.
HOW CAN I FEAR WITH JESUS?
WHEN I’M ALONE AND I FACE THE UNKNOWN
AND I FEAR WHAT THE FUTURE MAY BE,
I CAN DEPEND ON THE STRENGTH OF MY FRIEND,
HE WALKS ALONG WITH ME.
HOW CAN I FEAR? JESUS IS NEAR,
HE EVER WATCHES OVER ME.
WORRIES ALL CEASE, HE GIVES ME PEACE.
HOW CAN I FEAR WITH JESUS?
JESUS IS KING, HE CONTROLS EVERY THING;
HE IS WITH ME EACH NIGHT AND EACH DAY.
I TRUST MY SOUL TO THE SAVIOUR’S CONTROL;
HE DRIVES ALL FEAR AWAY – AWAY – AWAY!
HE WATCHES OVER ME
I WILL NOT FEAR……..WITH - - - - - HIM.

Praying for you, Heather - I cannot imagine the destructive power these storms bring as we don't have anything comparable really. The words of the song are wonderful, thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteDo you know, 'With Christ in the vessel I can smile at the storm?' a children's chorus we were singing and now I'm humming it and thinking of you all in the US.
God bless you and keep you.

Christine,
DeleteReally? I didn't know you didn't get bad storms. Huh. Do you even get tornadoes?
Well, I need to be living there! ;)
I do not know that song, but it sounds wonderful!!!! :) Thank you for your your prayers for me and all of the other people waiting out the storm! New Jersey and Maryland are really bad.
Lots of love and blessings, friend!!!!!
Heather
i love prim blessings so much..
ReplyDeleteGod bless you all..
big hugs cucki xx
Hello, Ladies!
ReplyDeleteTHank you for your prayers! I don't know how long the power will hold on. The worst part of the storm is from now until the next 5-6 hours. Winds are going to start gusting from 60-80 mph. The are pretty strong now! We are going on 4 inches of rain now. And, the hurricane isn't even here yet! But, God is bigger than storms! Dog is a little off kilter. She won't go outside. She got so nervous that she peed on Steve's sleeping bag. That is so unlike her. We made some brownies as comfort food! So, we are enjoying the power while we have it!
Blessings, Dear Friends!
Heather
Praying all goes well for you , Heather.. Love all of your catch up..
ReplyDeleteLovely finds, too..
Take care, my friend..
Thank you, Faye! Will this hurricane affect you in any way? Thank you for taking the time to read all of my rantings! You are too sweet! I appreciate your friendship and prayer!
DeleteYou take care as well, dear!
Love and Hugs,
Heather
Praying for your safety!! LOVE all the goodies you got! Can't believe you got the wreaths at Target for such a good deal! Awesome Goodwill finds too. The pin Keep is adorable!! Thanks for sharing I bet by now all your brownies are all gone!!My cuzin lives on Long Island and has been keeping us posted on facebook for as long as she can on there, they made meatballs in the crockpot and homemade chocolate cookies!! So glad people are trying to keep as normal as they can. Sending love and prayers. XOXO Fran.
ReplyDeleteHi, Fran!
DeleteI know with the wreaths! They had some good Fall stuff in their cheap bins when you come into the store! You never know what you are going to find! I love Goodwill- bargains for a good cause! What's not to love!!!!???
How did you know that all of my brownies were gone? ;) My husband just said he is getting cabin fever. Good grief! We are watching "Home Alone". I don't know why, but this storm has made me want to watch Christmas movies! Meatballs and cookies sure do sound yummy!!!! Food and movies- I guess that is a good normal, right? Better than no power, praise God!!!
I pray that your cousin stays safe! Thank you for your prayers!!!! They are greatly appreciated! It is good to talk with you!!!!!
Blessings and Hugs!
Heather
NO problem and glad to see you are ok. My cuzin in Long Island is ok this morning!! Can you believe they still have power so far!! Blessing they are in the middle. She said alot is going on outside.
