Between the Bubbles My Way! God's Fingerprints and Fabulous Friends!

MY CUP IS HALF FULL!

I am soooo excited about it being Friday, after working a full-time job, getting ready to close the Health Room for the summer, fighting with our union to keep our hours and not get them cut (WE WON!), working part-time helping my friend de-clutter and reorganize and pack up her home for a final move to Texas, planting my gardens, training Autumn, reclaiming my house from HUGE dust bunnies and well... you understand.  So - I was thinking about bubble baths and taking one!

but then my mind wandered

ooops

so then I though about all the gardening things I have to do

and began to let my my wander to books ...

   gardening
    
    weeding


      planting

    more weeding

   margarita  

brie and crackers

spending time with my honey bunny

so no posts for the weekend ... I just plan to be me -

in Woodbine Maryland - with my pets, my yard,

 a new born calf in the neighborhood,

buying a neighbor's fresh eggs, JUST ME ...THANKS TO YOU!

THE END

God's Fingerprints - that I have a hubby, furry companions,

friends, bubble baths, blogging buddies, a home, a job, can be myself and create,

and HE loves me for who I am and always will.

Through HIS grace. Amen  Jennifer

God's Fingerprint's Friday, It's a Long and Winding Road

I woke up with a clean slate - peace of mind for Friday...

packed up all my cares and woes

had my morning caffeine with my critters

started my car and headed to work

oops! wrong me...

that's more like it!

stopped for petrol $2.95 - and a cup of decaf

you know how you get a song in your mind and hum and sing & hum?

well mine is "Bye, Bye, Blackbird" Who knows why?

driving, humming, singing

splat - splash - crap

java on my freshly ironed crisp clean white blouse

directly over my right boob

soooooo...

I’m gonna pack up all my cares and woe,

Here I go singin' low,

Bye bye blackbird.

Where somebody waits for me,

Sugar is sweet, so is he,

Bye bye blackbird.

No one here can love or understand me,

Oh what hard luck stories, they all hand me.

Make my bed and light the light,

I’ll arive late tonight

Blackbird, blackbird, blackbird... bye bye

 

Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. James 5:13

Friday...For The Birds! Has Everyone Gone to Roundtop But ME?

i was decluttering again ... and again...

when i came upon some not so new spanish moss

but i am a firm believer in reuse, recycle - so, it being Spring....

 i love birds, nests and eggs.....so

                i thought about nesting...

feathered friends

giving back to nature

so i laid it in my empty birdbath

i watched, waited, bit by bit - strand after strand

they carried it away until it was gone

happy friday, happy weekend! Jennifer
P.S. My friend Ann(Commerce,TX)is on her way to Autin and then Roundtop, I see blogs of folks on their way...
happy hunting, wear comfortable shoes, bring toilet paper and I'll be here in Maryland...for the birds!

Fingerprints Friday - Gallery of My Card Designs

I've had a card design business for several years. The name of my business is The Three Graces. I began designing cards for friends and a few said "you should make these and sell them" - SO I DID.

I have a wide variety of styles and colors - humorous, botanicals, birds, nests, children, dog breeds and special requests.

They are one of a kind but I can make similar styles. Custom orders are possible if a customer would like a particular photo and they email it to me. My cards are blank inside, packaged with an envelope in a clear sealed sleeve.

Cost: $3.00 each + shipping

nature and time   sold

faithful friends   sold

couragous survivor  sold

my cup of tea  sold

I'd love to hear your comments, ideas, insight...

cardmaking is very relaxing for me - it enanbles me to spend hours being creative, using humor, art, quotes, color. I sell my cards in local antique & gift shops, an art and framing gallery, to private customers. How is God a fingerprint in my life with this business? -  What pleasure it brings to create but even more so when I hear someone chuckle at a funny quote or say"someone gave me one of your cards and I loved it!" - to make others happy. HE makes that possible.

That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.  Jennifer
happy friday & God bless

 My cards will be available for purchase. Payment will be through PayPal! Please check back and I will have new designs and information. Jennifer * If you have any questions...please feel free to leave a comment, I love hearing from you!

My Friday Fingerprints Happy Ending.... praise and thanks for fingerprints on my heart

Friday's Fingerprints on my heart...
“At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us."

i was having a tough time yesterday

needed to feel Spring and hope

to hear words of encouragement

get a boost

look at your lovely blogs

you right there for me

you were right there for ME!

then i received an email from my union rep telling me we are all losing an hour a day on our jobs due to the economy - not more money - less money

i fret... my phone rings

my friend bev says - "i read the email trust in the LORD,

open your bible to Psalms 46:1,2"

i did - it said - i knew

"God is our refuge and our strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not fear, though the Earth be removed, and though mountains be carried into the midst of the sea."

SOME BUNNY LOVES YOU FRIDAY! WEEKEND WISHES...

IT WAS A VERY BUSY WEEK FOR ME!
