Tuesday's Tid-bits

I am not sure if there is a Meme called Tuesday's Tid-bits. So if there is a Tuesday's Tid-bits, I had NO idea! I came up with this Monday when I read a little local newspaper called Southern Humor. They had a list of Inspiring Thoughts. I really liked all of them, so I came up with Tuesday's Tid-bits! On Tuesdays, I will be leaving little one thought provoking sentence! Here is my first Tuesday's Tid-bit:




You can't change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying over the future!




Until next time.....

Monday Memory

This is my first Monday Memory! Saturday all I did was think about special memorizes of my Mom. Saturday would have been her 74th birthday. So today my first Monday Memory will be about her! I have so many great memorizes about my mom and I have no idea which one to choose! So I guess I will tell you about the time my mom bought her very first car on her own! Now you might think she was in her 20s or 30s when she bought her first car...but NO! She was 65 years old!!!! She always had my Dad to go with her to buy cars. When she bought this car, she was living with us in Tennessee. She had went to Indiana to visit family members. When she would take these trips, we drove her half way meeting a family member in Kentucky somewhere. Well this time when she came home, she said she had a surprise and I didn't need to pick her up in Kentucky! She comes rolling in this!!



A White Buick Regal! She was so proud of herself! Boy was I surprised! She was able to enjoy this car a little over 1 year before she went to her Heavenly Home!!

Until next time.....

Measured in minutes or hours, how much exercise have you had in the last week?

Dessert
Do you tend to prefer dark colors, neutral shades, or lighter/pastel hues?

I like alot of different colors for different reasons. I like certains colors for my house, certain colors for my wardrobe, etc.

Wordless Wednesday - Missing Him!

Proud Moment!

I wanted to take time to share with you a very proud moment. Back in April of this year, Football Star entered this photo:




into the Tennessee Teen Talent. This is something our church denomination sponsors for our Teenagers. Football Star won the Tennessee level of the competition and was invited to enter into the International Teen Talent during the General Assembly held in Nashville, Tennessee this year. We entered his picture. August 26th we took Football Star to the Gaylord Entertainment Center for the Awards Ceremony.




We were so surprised when they announced his name as the winner of the Photography competition!! What an honor! During our teenage years, Big D and I never entered in the Teen Talent competitions growing up, so we were absolutely THRILLED with Football Star's success!!!

Congrats Football Star!! We are so very proud of you!

Until next time.....

Remembering!

Today marks the 5th anniversary of 911. I wanted to take this time out of my blog to honor all those that lost their lives on that horrible tragic day. I can't believe it has been 5 years! It seems as if it just happened a few months ago. Now after 5 years when American tries to move on, we are reminded again because all those wonderful people who volunteered their time to help clean up Ground Zero are getting sick and dying from respiratory problems. The families of those lost on 911 and all the sick Ground Zero heroes you are in my prayers!

I ask any blogger that happens to read my blog to take this time for a Moment of Silence to honor our 911 victims.

Until next time.....

Cell Phone vs Bible

Most of us have cell phones these days so I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our cell phones?



What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?
What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?
What if we flipped through it several times a day?
What if we used it to receive messages from the text?
What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?
What if we gave it to kids as gifts?
What if we used it as we traveled?
What if we used it in case of emergency?

This is something to make you go...hmmm...where is my Bible? Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cell phone, we don't ever have to worry about our bible being disconnected because Jesus already paid the bill!




Until next time.....

What an HONOR!

I had the EXTREME pleasure of meeting YellowRose a couple weeks ago. Our church was having its International General Assembly. We have been friends for awhile, so we took this opportunity to meet in person! The Assembly was held at the Gaylord Entertainment Center in Nashville, Tennessee. Let me tell you, she is as wonderful and fun in person as she is on the internet. Meeting her confirmed our Sisterhood! Big Daddy and Football Player was with me when we met. Football Player told me later that day, "Mom, I know why you like YellowRose so much. She is so fun!" Now when you impress a teenager that is saying something!! I just so wished that Computer Geek had the opportunity to meet her as well. Even tho the miles are between us, I am sure we will meet again! Georgia isnt that far from Tennessee! I definitely love this lady with all my heart!! She is the reason I started blogging! She is definitely a gift from God!

Until next time.....

God Bless~
