Monday Mini-thoughts (:

Today I thought about friends. Everyone has friends. There are different types of friends, and I can choose which type of friend I will be.
Fun time friend: there with bells on ready to play. If problems arise they are quick to say ...see you later.
Crowd pleaser: one of the crowd. When the crowd leaves you behind...so does this friend.
Religious friend: is your friend but only if you attend their church and live the way they do.
Garbage man friend: always there for you to hear all the garbage they have in their landfill minds.
Forever friends: are there for you in the good, the bad, and especially in the ugly. They help when needed and give you space when needed. Years may pass between meetings...but these friends can pick up right where they left off.

I wanna be a forever friend.  The Bible says the way to have a friend is to be one.
When I become the type of friend I so long for...God will bless me with the right forever friends. He's awesome like that!

Wordless Wednesday

Autumn is here

As long as I can remember,  I have loved the season of Autumn most. It's not that I don't love the other seasons, it's more that most of My favorite memories occurred in Autumn.
As a young girl, I would play the mash game and imagine a variety of children with a variety of names. I had the homes all decorated and the yards planned. Just had to wait for the husband. Lol One of the name I have always loved is Shiloh Autumn... now it is still a romantic favorite of mine...but never a realistic suggestion. It seems too flower childish to me for realistic use. Lol
I love raking the leaves up into piles and jumping in them. I love bonfires with Gordian and smores... especially sticky marshmallow roasted to perfection. I love candy corn and those little candy pumpkins. I love Carmel apples and pumpkin everything.  I love pumpkin farms and mums. I love sweaters and hayrides with lots of cuddles and singing as loudly as possible. I love doing these things and more...especially when I do them with people I LOVE. I think that is the key...My family and friends gave me My precious Autumn memories...and I look forward to making many more memories this year!!!

Books i have loved

Oh my goodness. That's soooo aggravating.  I had one of my best blogs yet...almost finished...and my phone deleted it. #welldonephone#dumbphone
