First Week of the Year

Here it is, the first whole week of the New Year!

All the Christmas decorations are put back up for 

another year when they'll be brought back out again 
to celebrate this year, 2015 coming to a close. I am

thankful for the blessings my good Lord has given me.

We've had good days and some bad days, but He saw

us through them all.

My daughter gave me this Scentsy Candle warmer for

Christmas. I love it because it's electric and  I don't need to

 worry about it burning anything, it uses a night light bulb 

to melt the wax. Oh and it smells so good!

 Yes, Christmas with all it's trimmings are all 

packed up and the only thing left at my home

is the candy on my Two Tier Server another

daughter gave me for Christmas. 

They know their daddy's favorite candy is

Hershey's  kisses, so they always give him

a large bag of them. I'm hoping every time

someone walks by they'll eat a hand full.

I have lost 5 lbs. since Christmas from not

eating sweets. Proud of myself cause it sure

isn't easy. Love Sweets!!

 

Well I have to admit that 
I did eat just a very small piece
 of my granddaughter's 16th birthday cake.
Who could resist, isn't it beautiful! 
My daughter's friend made it for her.

With a new year comes decisions to change things, 

maybe our habits, are our decor in our homes. But

the best decision would be to be a light to this

world. Showing God's love and kindness to others.

 "Ye are the light of the world. A City

that is set on an hill can not be hid,

Neither do men light a candle,

and put it under a bushel, but 

on a candlestick, and it giveth light unto

all that are in thy house.

Let your Light so shine before men, that

they may see your good works,

and glorify your Father which is in heaven."

Matthew 5:14-16 (kjv bible)

Have a Blessed Week
