Some of My Favorite Things . . .

I surround myself with verses and sayings that promote positive thinking. During a time in my adult life I was sure that I was the only one on this imperfect earth that had sadness and heart ache. But figured out how untrue and decided that I had to change my way thinking. Thus the reason why I live each day with the mantra - "Positive In, Positive Out".

If you have ever been in my home you see framed sayings, magnets and such things scattered around. One such saying is from Helen Keller. She felt things deeply from the heart. I love this saying.



My sister gave me this beautiful pendant- "God Bless My Sister", and I love it so much it hangs in one of the archways of my home so I can look at it each day and remember the warm feeling of love I had when she gave it to me.



I enjoyed a week in Sedona Arizona this year with my sisters, Bonnie, Ruth and Nancy. We gather as bojarunan every 2 years and learn, feel, and experiance from each other. We also give from our hearts. My sister Nancy gave each of us this beautiful cut hanging glass. She is personally aquainted with the artist who crafted the art piece and I have mine hanging in a place where the air from my heater or air conditioner blows to send the pieces of glass into musical sounds. In the spring/summer I hope that when I have my french doors open the crisp air will send the melodic sounds through my kitchen to my heart and soul.



With Valentines Day my heart felt the love from so many who send me cards, gifts and sweet messages of love. These are a few of those tokens. What a treat! I bought .75 cents worth of gummy hearts to treat myself for Valentine's Day not knowing that I was going to be showered with such love. It ended up being such a fun day!
