I HAVE BEEN BUSY
I am not sure where time goes sometimes......we had Dish network hooked back up last weekend....we also got..... DSL...... we hooked it up Wednesday night.......at all last...we have been wanting it forever......so far so good.
This is a few other things I have been working on.....
This is a rag quilt....Eddie took the picture.....needs to be a little closer....it has pink roses and another pink flower...with solid pink squares and blue flannel between the layers..that seems to give it a little extra color.
These are some fabric travel trays.....you can put your jewelry in them when you are at the motel .....and if you wear glasses you can put them in there too.......they have velcro in the corners that holds them together.....when you get ready to leave just open them up.....and they lay flat in your luggage....next is a coaster set with a tray....I didn't use velcro on the corners of this tray I just sewed them.
Cheryl has been having trouble with kidney stones again......they removed them yesterday....she knew they were going to get one ...but they saw two more and were able to get them too.....she has been in a lot of pain but with pain med she is able to handle it.....Keep her in your Prayers.
I Corinthians 15: 58
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

HELLO EVERYONE :D
I have been extra busy lately.......not that I have been getting a lot done........I started a rag quilt Saturday.....I almost have it sown together.....but I ran out of thread.....with all the thread I have Eddie can't believe I need more thread...but I just don't have the right color.....I will post a picture when I am finished.
Cheryl brought the girls by Saturday afternoon .......aren't they cute.....they were going to the fall festival at their church........they enjoyed helping me pick out pecans..........I went Friday and picked up two buckets full......I have already picked out three quart bags full.....and have at least that many more to pick out.
PSALM 100
1 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands.
2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

E-MAIL I WANTED TO SHARE
I received this e-mail from Uncle Bob..I like this one and wanted to share...
-----
No matter what our kids and the new generation think about us, WE ARE AWESOME !!! OUR LIFE IS LIVING PROOF !!! To Those of Us Born 1925 - 1970 : At the end of this email is a quote of the month by Jay Leno. If you don't read anything else, please read what he said. Very well stated, Mr. Leno. ~~~~~~~~~ TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED THE 1930s, '40s, '50s, '60s and '70s!! First, we survived being born to mothers who may have smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes. Then, after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-based paints. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, locks on doors or cabinets, and, when we rode our bikes, we had baseball caps, not helmets, on our heads. As infants and children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, no booster seats, no seat belts, no air bags, bald tires and sometimes no brakes. Riding in the back of a pick- up truck on a warm day was always a special treat. We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle. We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle, and no one actually died from this. We ate cupcakes, white bread, real butter, and bacon. We drank Kool-Aid made with real white sugar. And we weren't overweight. WHY? Because we were always outside playing...that's why! We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on. No one was able to reach us all day. --And, we were OKAY. We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride them down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes.. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem. We did not have Play Stations, Nintendos and X-boxes. There were no video games, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVDs, no surround-sound or CDs, no cell phones, no personal computers, no Internet and no chat rooms. WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them! We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth, and there were no lawsuits from those accidents. We would get spankings with wooden spoons, switches, ping-pong paddles, or just a bare hand, and no one would call child services to report abuse. We ate worms, and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever. We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls, and -although we were told it would happen- we did not put out very many eyes. We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them. Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!! The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law! These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers, and inventors ever. The past 50 to 85 years have seen an explosion of innovation and new ideas.. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all. If YOU are one of those born between 1925-1970, CONGRATULATIONS! You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our own good. While you are at it, forward it to your kids, so they will know how brave and lucky their parents were. Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn't it ? ~~~~~~~ The quote of the month by Jay Leno: "With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?"
REVELATION 3;20
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

SUNDAY WAS A GREAT DAY
Sunday was homecoming at Grace FWB in Rocky Mount....that is the church Sammy is pastoring........it was a great day.........the Men of Faith Quartet sang from 10:00 till 11:00......they did a wonderful job.......they also sang a couple more songs during the worship service......the last song they sang was "Working on a Building'.......then Sammy preached about Working on a Building...he did a great job.......Pearl is 6 now and she ask the Lord to save her soul about a year ago.....then she started talking to Lori about being saved........Lori told her Mom one night she wanted the Lord to live in her heart....she wanted to live for the Lord and go to heaven one day.......by the way Lori is five....they were both baptized Sunday........the entire day was a great big Blessing. As most of you know Homecoming is not over until lunch is served.......that was goooood too.
I will however have to apologize to Jason, Cheryl and the girls it was Homecoming at their church too.......but with the girls being baptized we had to be there.
We also stopped by to see my sister and her husband on our way home...it was great to visit with them....they have really worked in their yard the past couple years....it looks great...their house is beautiful too.

MATTHEW 18
2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

TOTE BAG
Ada ask me to make this bag.......she gave me the fabric and strap material....so I made it last night....took it to work today.......she is going to put it in a new store in NB.......I hope the lady that owns the store likes it. I think the color of the fabric and the pumpkin on it makes it look like fall.
MARK 9;23
Jesus said unto him. If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
