ON THE BRIGHT SIDE

NOVEMBER 3RD,  2011

It's THURSDAY!

HOUSEWIFE DAY

Housewife Day recognizes the importance of stay at home wives and moms. These wonderful, caring creatures, build and enrich strong family environments. They help to instill family values and good character.
Housewife is an old term. It hails back to the days when one income could support the family in a manner of comfort.  The decision to be a housewife, or stay at home mom, is still preferred by many. Unfortunately, income needs often necessitate going to work.
Today, we celebrate and thank all of the ladies who choose to stay home and tend to the house and family! 

Housework is something you do that nobody notices until you don't do it.

PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS

Please pray for God's protection of

our troops and HIS wisdom for their

commanders.

Lord, hold our troops in

your loving hands.

Protect them as they protect us.

Bless them and their families for the

selfless acts they perform for us

in our time of need. I ask this in the

name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.

AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters

and Paramedics and EMT's

GOD BLESS YOU!

AROUND HOME

The trouble with living alone is that it's always your turn to do the dishes.

When I was a young gal my goal in life was to be a housewife.  I didn't want to be a nurse, a lawyer, or a secretary.  The career I wanted was to be a housewife.  And I did get my wish.  I also worked at a few other things too, but for the most part I gloried in being a housewife. 

Home is supposed to be a place we enjoy being and I do.

FIRST WARNING

Coming this Sunday we'll be celebrating FALL BACK SUNDAY.  Set your clocks back one hour before you go to bed Saturday night and then celebrate with an extra hour of sleep!

HELPFUL HINT;  BROWN SUGAR

You can keep brown sugar soft by storing it in the refrigerator

COUNTING THE DAYS

If the shelves are dusty and the pots don't shine,
it's because I have better things to do with my time.
