ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today is National Chocolate Milkshake Day which is an opportunity for chocoholics to savor and enjoy. The weather may be cooling off, but the appetite for chocolate, specifically chocolate milkshakes hasn’t cooled off one iota. Chocolate is the most popular milkshake flavor.
To celebrate today, enjoy a milkshake tonight for dessert. To make your own at home combine 2 cups of chocolate ice cream, 2 bars of chocolate candy, diced, and 1/2 cup whipped cream in a blender. Garnish with more whipped cream and chocolate shavings. Enjoy!
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
All I really need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.
Charles Schulz
I do love chocolate and while a chocolate shake is not my favorite, I think I’ll have one to celebrate today. My favorite is vanilla. But anything chocolate is good and I often have ice cream for dessert anyway.
Here we are mid week already and it’s time I got busy. Before I know it the days fly by here with very little getting accomplished here in the house. I did get laundry done yesterday, but the drizzle continued for much of the morning so the yard work had to wait.
My fall decorating is finally completed too and that is what todays pictures are all about. I’ve combined Halloween and Thanksgiving in the mix so I’m set now through November. The only changes needed will be a fresh tablecloth for Thanksgiving.
Today would have been my Dad’s birthday and today is also the wedding anniversary of one of my nieces’. It is good day to remember and be thankful for.
Happy Fall Y’all !
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Coffee makes it possible to get out of bed. Chocolate makes it worthwhile.

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
6332. for chocolate, always good and good for you
6333. for fall decorations which brighten up some rainy days
6334. for a washer and dryer that do the wash
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their

Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
ADVICE FOR TODAY
Put eat chocolate at the top of your list of things to do today.
That way, at least you’ll get one thing done.

Thankfully we are to be party sunny later on today, so I'm hoping for a good day to get outside ! Have a wonderful Wednesday!
A Special Happy Birthday 🎂 and Happy Anniversary. I always love all your decorations. And I never take my washer and dryer for granted . 😀
Your autumn décor looks so warm and comforting!
As a child I loved chocolate milk shakes … but grew up to prefer vanilla. Yum!
Such cute decorations! My favorite shake is chocolate, but I haven't had one in years. Might have to treat myself soon!
betty
Oddly enough while I love chocolates and chocolate cakes, I am not fond of either chocolate milk or chocolate ice cream or, yes, chocolate milkshakes! Vanilla is my favourite too! I hope you won’t have much effects from that nasty hurricane! Stay safe! Xoxo
