It has been a long time since I checked in here .<br />
A lot has been going on for good in my life. I have had two back surgery's but am doing lots better now.<br />
God has been so good to me /He has provided for me . Given me a great family , a great church with faithful friends .<br />
The winter of 2013-2014 has been and is being very cold and frigid. Not much snow to speak of but below 0 temperatures .<br />
This old women stays in a lot . I am still teaching a lady's Sunday School class and play piano at church . Go to day of prayer on Tuesdays at church and then out to lunch with some friends.<br />
hadn't done any knitting for a couple of years but have gotten back in it full swing.<br />
I need to knit a pair of wool gloves for this greeter at Walmart who's hands were frozen Tuesday and she was in the bathroom running warm water over them .. Lord help me to get them done faster than any I have ever made.<br />
hope to be back soon and visit some old blogger friends and see how may are still here.<br />
Until then; God bless and keep you . The Lord make his face to shine upon you and bless and keep you .<br />
In Christ<br />

With life so busy for everyone, we all need a time to get away from it all, as Jesus told his disciples," come apart for a time".<br />
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
We are going to leave all things at home for this time. I am claiming a time of refreshing for each of us. I have spiritual decisions to make when I get home . Here I am to wait on the Lord .<br />
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
The world says " there's a feeling in the air " but I say " there's a feeling in my spirit " .<br />
God is using us to do things for him we've never done before . He's growing us.I believe he is trying to grow us into the person he made us to be when we were born.<br />
*********************************************************<br />
I ask him Who am I suppose to be Lord ? What am I suppose to be ?<br />
It's time now to be that person, follow where he leads & you will feel a peace even in things you are asked to do that you've never though of doing.<br />
<br />
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~To grow; Get out of your comfort zone if he opens the door !<br />
He's coming back for a church without spot or blemish. I can't do this for myself, but He can .<br />

Hello Blogger.<br />
I know its been a long time since I've been here . I had forgotten about blogging until TJ's post came in my email. <br />
Lots of things going on in my life these days.<br />
I try to keep busy and the good Lord is helping me along. <br />
I am walking a lot better but arthritis in my spine keeps me in some pain most days. <br />
Some days I see well & others not. Effects of the mini stroke.<br />
I stay busy helping the younger women at church learn to knit or crochet , which ever they want. they keep me busy showing them how to correct their mistakes too. I love doing this.<br />
I also help with some crafts like making envelopes & cards from outdated wallpaper.<br />
I love being with people and God has provided so I am not as lonesome as I have been in the past 5 years since my dear husband went home to be with the Lord .<br />
<a name='more'></a>I still sing in the choir , my Alto is holding up well;<br />
I still teach a lady's Sunday School Class ; Still learning myself as God teaches me as I teach.<br />
I may come back more as the days gets cooler to pass time and visit some of my old friends. <br />
God bless <br />
<br />

Have not been well health wise. Had a ATI ( mini stroke ) and pottossium & sodium are giving me a fit, leaving me so weak can't stay alone.Doctor is working with my meds hoping to help. Nausa is awful , keeping me from being able to take more then a few bites at a time.So all those who believe in prayer please say one for me.<br />
October came in with a chilly wind in the high 30's @ night.Filled my oil tank and had my furance serviced. Need to store some outdoor stuff and I'll be as ready for winter as I can .<br />

Was a cold wet winter and still May is cool & wet. But the flowers are simply showing themselves.<br />
And I might add, given me a new lease on life.<br />
I was in so much pain from December till 2 weeks ago I didn't feel sociable and glad I didn't inflect my negativity on my blog... we all have *aches * pain and there is much better things to post about.Did go to Orthopedic doctor.Did a MRI and found my problem is; Spinal Stenosis <a href="http://www.spinalstenosis.org/">http://www.spinalstenosis.org/</a> <br />
Options ; see surgeon or injections. I am going with the injections at the moment and it is helping 85%.Enough said <br />
************************************************************************<br />
I have knitted socks a lot & got burn out so past month I have crocheted baby blankets. Here are a couple from Leisure Arts book Keepsake Baby Afghans; I crocheted them in Lion Brands One Pounder. These pictures are the actual ones I crocheted. the book ones are in a different color.<br />

Its waiting for the town mulcher to come and make it into mulch. The tree looks crooked but I beleive that now the sun can get inside , it will grow straight and bush out at the top. It will be a shady place for some tired and weary person to set down under to rest and refresh them selves so they can get up and travel a little futher on this journey of life.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> I had a guardian angel to come visit me and watch over me while I worked. I don't know where he came from.He had a collar on but no tags.At day he would follow me from the house , across the creek , set a little ways from the tree , he'd turn his head and watch me and then follow me back to the porch to cool off. He'd drink from the creek while I dranked from my cup .where ever he went , after I finished the tree, I hope he is happy . Somehow I feel he is watching over someone else somewhere.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhstCwYqHYWhc4gGIArbMbEwmGXsXyahczR1flGADlPZNxsyKeNQ-yzh5k80U2UOwgnb6woqQSrQ0_d_kDgg8WhLFplwwmDQVpZoB1eVpSvNksxtDi9lYsAPs4hqN1Q1rWTuR_toyAh_7AX/s1600/My+visitor.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" hw="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhstCwYqHYWhc4gGIArbMbEwmGXsXyahczR1flGADlPZNxsyKeNQ-yzh5k80U2UOwgnb6woqQSrQ0_d_kDgg8WhLFplwwmDQVpZoB1eVpSvNksxtDi9lYsAPs4hqN1Q1rWTuR_toyAh_7AX/s320/My+visitor.jpg" /></a></div>Grandma Elsiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06577325242276975191noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013105735247081860.post-5062267108379485502010-06-19T12:26:00.000-07:002010-06-19T12:26:27.846-07:00Hello Blogger World<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3xyK_Uu-XsU4RUcHM_EON1-dP5QXI05SoHBw41tZloOCPaxVRzRgqBM5e7uuuOix7UBb4Kj5XCo_l32C2Kz1fsl3oboThMZNrrg7gQJjmzqrCEMz0DBODc_SCEP2Hke0llDZhyphenhyphen7SbjkVe/s1600/Hummingbird+%40+feeder.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" qu="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3xyK_Uu-XsU4RUcHM_EON1-dP5QXI05SoHBw41tZloOCPaxVRzRgqBM5e7uuuOix7UBb4Kj5XCo_l32C2Kz1fsl3oboThMZNrrg7gQJjmzqrCEMz0DBODc_SCEP2Hke0llDZhyphenhyphen7SbjkVe/s320/Hummingbird+%40+feeder.jpg" width="315" /></a></div><br />
Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer.<br />
I have been gone since May 31 . <br />
Now I know you aren't going to believe me but <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I forgot to take my camera!!!!!</span><br />

Growing Conditions<br />
Full sunshine. Don't even begin to wish for a harvest in shade. At least 6-8 full hot sun-hours a day. <br />
If you can grow great roses in this spot, you'll be good for growing raspberries. <br />
Even moisture. The key to obtaining good berries is to have good soil with even moisture when the berries are setting flower and fruit. Without the moisture, your berries will be small and tough. <br />
Organic soils. Growing raspberries thrive on organic matter and adding copious amounts of compost or composted manure is a time-honored method of producing great harvests. <br />

She is just as pretty on the inside as she is on the outside.In fact because she is such a good daughter , I think that is what makes her pretty on the outside.<br />
She has twin siblings ,born when she was 5 and she has always been so much help to her Mother. <br />
We have always called each other since she was small: to read scripture and discuss what color the angels robes are each night at bedtime.Mine are never the same color as hers ..(smile ) <br />
She helped fill an empty spot in my heart & is so precious to me.<br />

I haven't decided where I will place it yet.<br />
But as it reminds me of the cross, The baby Jesus was hung on to give us everlasting life: just like the evergreen has long life,<br />
the lights means to me , Jesus is the light of the world so bright in the darkness.<br />
the gifts under the tree are to give away to those we love. Just as he gave the best gift of all to those he loved , us whom he created..<br />
He gave his life to redeem us back to God, because he loved us so.<br />

<b> THE U IN JESUS <br />
<br />
Before U were thought of or time had begun, <br />
God stuck U in the name of His Son. <br />
<br />
And each time U pray, you'll see it's true, <br />
You can't spell out JesUs and not include U.. <br />
<br />
You're a pretty big part of His wonderful name, <br />
For U, He was born; that's why He came. <br />
<br />
And His great love for U is the reason He died. <br />
It even takes U to spell crUcified. <br />
<br />
Isn't it thrilling and splendidly grand <br />
He rose from the dead, with U in His plan? <br />
<br />
The stones split away, the gold trUmpet blew, <br />
and this word resUrrection is spelled with a U. <br />
<br />
When JesUs left earth at His Upward ascension, <br />
He felt there was one thing He just had to mention. <br />
<br />
"Go into the world and tell them it's true <br />
That I love them all - Just like I love U." <br />
<br />
So many great people are spelled with a U, <br />
Don't they have a right to know JesUs too? <br />
<br />
It all depends now on what U will do, <br />
He'd like them to know, <br />
But it all starts with U. </b></span><b><br />

</div> Have a wonderful week.<br />
I went to a Christian Women's Breakfast in N.C. with a few wonderful friend's and was sooo blessed.<br />
There is nothing like fellowship with other's who love the Lord. There was about 4 or 5 denominations there and such a sweet spirit in all.<br />
of course we eat too much and had Pumpkin pancakes.. Awesome....with cool whip /chocolate syrup or regular maple syrup/ spices to sprinkle over them and chopped nuts /brown sugar.<br />
http://www.cooks.com/rec/search?q=Pumpkin+pancakes<br />
Plus breakfast casseroles and bowls of fresh fruit. Hot cider /orange juice and coffee to drink.<br />
Then we played bingo, picking on the lady calling out the numbers. She was such a good sport.<br />
Guess who won a gift at bingo ???<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"> ME</span><br />
<br />
Look and see my blessing ladies... Smile.<br />
