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!

Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day which is a day just for fun. It’s a day let out the pirate in each of us. Today every one will be talking the talk, if not walking the walk. It’s not a requirement to drees like a pirate. Just talk like one.
This fun holiday started in 1995 by two regular guys playing a game of racquetball. They had so much fun speaking in pirate talk that they decided to start a new holiday. So gather round me hearties and talk like a pirate all day long.
Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a priates life for me!
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Not all the treasure is silver and gold Mate.
Captain John Sparrow
It’s always nice to have something fun to celebrate and today is meant to be all about fun. The picture at the beginning of this post is of one my grandsons when he was preforming in his Spring choir concert. The others are of some of the younger grandchildren having fun at princess and pirate party a couple of years ago now.
So true that treasures are not about having a lot of money. Most of what I treasure in life hasn’t cost me a cent. Treasures of gold and silver don’t mean a lot if you haven’t someone to share them with. They say that where a man’s heart is, there is his treasure.
Holiday Tip for Today: Create a Holiday Budget for a debt free Christmas
Wednesday often seem the busiest day of the week for me. I will get out today to do my errands and shopping and hopefully get a few things around the house done too. It’s a normal day for me with not much new and exciting, but then every day is a gift to be thankful for.
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.
Johnny Depp
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
6353. for a fun day to laugh and enjoy
6354 for a normal Wednesday

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
commanders.
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!

Just for fun talk like a Pirate today ! Yo ho!
Yo, ho, ho! Sorry ... having missed all the Jack Sparrow films that's all I know. Your princesses and pirates are so cute!
That's a good tip about creating a debt-free Christmas. Tom and I no longer buy for one another and would prefer spending $ on experiences/events with loved ones.
I bet that pirates and princesses party was a big success!! I can't believe its Talk Like a Pirate Day again. It just seems like it was it from last year. Time has gone by so fast this year. Great tip about having a debt less Christmas by planning a budget. Buying a little bit at a time also helps too.
