AS AUTUMN FADES . . .

 It's nearly Thanksgiving and autumn is gradually fading away into winter with bare trees, less green and growing things, colder temps and, around here, we've had some snow and quite wintry days.  I post here some photos of my autumn decorations in my house this fall.  We'll enjoy them a couple weeks longer and when Thanksgiving is behind us I will put it all away and pull out my Christmas goodies.

It's been another year of ups and downs but I'm thankful for the ups and thankful that the Lord just showers us abundantly with his continued grace, mercy, provision, strength, encouragement and unconditional love!  I am also thankful for the downs because that has caused me to exercise a greater faith in my Lord, become a more committed and diligent prayer warrior, be more sensitive to others who are struggling and appreciate my family more and more!

I'm looking forward to another year of a closer walk with my Lord, to the hope of feeling better from the health challenges I've been experiencing and spending more time with family!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL! 
GOD BLESS YOU ALL AS WELL!!

SILKY the "SUN-BUM"

 I have an electronic keyboard under a south facing window and Silky has this little spot of her own to nap in or watch creatures from the window on it.
Caught her napping here yesterday, getting more comfortable by the minute.  In the afternoon I saw her  on the bed in the sun coming in the west facing window.
Yes, a "sun-bum" . . . but such a sweet and entertaining one!
