Good morning, friends. Have you gobbled til you wobbled? I can’t believe it’s December first!!  Another year has flown by.  Have you accomplished the things you wanted to do?  I think a nice cup of tea would be perfect right now.  Won’t you join me, sit a while and chat?  🙂

 

If we were sipping tea and talking I would tell you: with Thanksgiving behind us, all the stores have kicked it into high gear with their Christmas season, totally missing the real meaning of the day.  I did no shopping on Thanksgiving, or Black Friday.  Actually, I usually don’t! lol  I prefer the mom & pop shops over big box, but I did get something from Amazon on Saturday.  See, I waited.  😉

If we were sipping tea and talking I would tell you: we had Shadow this week, and we’ll be walking him tonight, weather permitting.  He’s such a fun pup!  He really brightens up my day, or night, since we walk him at 6PM.  🙂

If we were sipping tea and talking I would tell you: we are bracing for a snowstorm in NJ.  Now, if you live here, you know, most of the time they get it wrong.  When they predict a storm, we get flurries.  When they predict flurries, we get a foot! So we’re all hoping they got it wrong this time.  Although I have to admit, I do like that first snowfall.  Everything looks so pretty.  But not a foot at a time!  Plus, the cold and I don’t get along.  I become a hermit until spring!

If we were sipping tea and talking I would tell you: we had a beautiful church service on Wednesday, with our worship team leading us in song, and giving thanks to those we are grateful for, especially the Lord.  This picture is the altar with the team, although the two ladies, and one man, are missing.  From left to right, John (on guitar), Brad (vocals), John (on drums), Pastor Charlie (on guitar) & Harvey (on keyboards)

If we were sipping tea and talking I would tell you: I’ve been keeping busy with getting the house ready for Alyssa’s and my LuLaRoe Launch Party, as well as the holidays.  I’m really loving the color of the walls I’ve painted.  I went with a soft beige, Sandstorm, to be exact.  Matches the rug perfectly!!  I’m hoping to be finished by the end of this week.  So much to do, so little time!

 

As for the week ahead:

If we were sipping tea, basking in the sun and talking I would tell you: tomorrow, I get to walk Darty!  Alyssa will be in PA on another puppy sitting adventure.  Unless the snow is really bad, then we all might be stuck here.

If we were sipping tea, basking in the sun and talking I would tell you: our church’s WOW Christmas Fellowship is Saturday.  WOW stands for Women of Worship.  It is a beautiful event, for the ladies only.  This year’s theme is “The Comfort of Christmas.”  I’m really looking forward to it!

If we were sipping tea, basking in the sun and talking I would tell you: (weather permitting) it’s off to church I go! I have Avon duty, since Lys is not here.  Wish me luck!  Until next time, be well, and have a blessed week, my friends!  ❤
