{It's Been A Hot Minute Y'all}

  Well, it's not HOT in my neck of the woods in temperature (not today anyway) but it's sure been a HOT minute since I last posted. For that I am so sorry but it seems my life has been consumed with doctor appointments, tests, and MORE tests, biopsies, surgery and so much more. One day at a time sweet Jesus is all that any of us can ask for. Wanted to pop in on this beautiful Sunday afternoon to share a little about what I've been up too.  Marty and I enjoyed a weekend at the beach before I had breast cancer surgery and took advantage of the time I had in between so many doctor appointments and testing. It was sure a good little getaway.  We celebrated our 47th wedding anniversary in September. WOW! Just babies! LOL! We were high school sweethearts. Started dating at age 16. Married at age 18 and started a family at age 20.  We celebrated Marty's birthday in October. He says that he's feeling his age these days. LOL! He still works 4 days a week and has a long commu...

Tuesday Toots-Football basket

A little Football toot today!

 Made up this basket for one of my family members who is also an avid football fan and it was so much fun picking out football food.
I packed everything that you can imagine in this basket.Just to name a few....peanuts, chips, dip, water, popcorn, Slim Jim's, pickles, and well you name it and it was packed in there. Of course he is a Georgia Bulldog fan (GO DAWGS) so had to add a little Ga colors ya know! An added small football gave it a nice touch.And of course the little red basket can be used in his man cave as he calls it as a catch-all!

I love this verse on the football that took center stage in the gift basket.


I simply took a free printable of a football and typed in the verse I wanted to use and then cut it out! Worked out perfect don't ya think?

Enjoy your Tuesday and REJOICE!

Hugs and blessings, Cindy

    You are always doing something for someone else, Cindy! What an inspiration you are!

    The first thing I noticed when I looked at the basket was the football with Scripture on it. Clever lady! Love it!

    Thanks so much for sharing!

    Hi Cindy, what a fantastic job you did. My hubby would looove one of your football baskets.
    I'm not a football fan myself, but I do make lil snack platters for him to munch on while he's jumping up and down yelling at the TV screen.

    I hope your day has been as wonderful as you are!

Hiding the Ugly Hot Water Heater

 I shared that I wanted to hide my ugly hot water heater in my laundry room with you a few weeks ago. It just stuck out like a sore thumb. But after all it is a hot water heater right? So my man took a piece of wood (not real wood) but it worked and built a frame for me. So now to see if it would fit and it did. I painted it white and did not like the texture it had even after two coats of white. (rule of thumb...you get what you pay for and the wood was cheap) But I wasn't going to let it whip me!  Found some contact paper at Walmart in the gray and white. Covered the front with the contact paper and loved the look. The top was covered with a piece of painted wood as well and worked perfect to place this on top... And this.... Added a clothes basket in the corner and here was the top.... Yep, no longer an eye sore to me! Went perfect with my gray walls and gray and white floor. Remember the wood tray I bought at a...

{SON-Flowers}

Don't you just love sunflowers? When I think about sunflowers I think of two things. My motherinlove who loved sunflowers and Fall. I came across a devotional written by Julia Bettencourt on sunflowers and thought it so appropriate for today as I wanted to share my sunflowers with you. Here's a few lessons we can learn from the sunflower.    Sunflowers Track The Sun.   Most plants are attracted to light but the flowering head of the sunflower actually tracks the sun following it's path and moving toward where it is in the sky all during the day. I read somewhere that sunflowers track the sun when they are in bud stage. Isn't that how it usually goes for us as Christians? When we first come to know the Lord, we get excited about knowing all about Him and living for Him, but after awhile we sometimes grow a little preoccupied with other things and get our eyes off of the Lord.   Wouldn't it be great if as a Christian we'd track th...
