Don't let the difficulties of the present moments overshadow the reality of God's promises. God's promises still stand. And God's promises are stronger than our failures.

It's Here - Two Big Days!

The first big day, the biggest day of all, is....today's my birthday!  I'd tell you how old I am but then I'd have to kill you.  Just kidding!  Today I'm 66 years old and I'm pretty sure I somehow skipped all the way from 21 to 66 with no breaks in between.  In fact, even though my body is saying 66...66...66... my mind is saying 21...21...21.  I am thanking God today that I'm having a birthday, that I woke up this morning, that I'm able to get out of the bed and that I have family and friends who touch my heart every day.

And just in case you're wondering, or anyone is wondering, I love Italian Cream Cake, Chocolate Cake, Carrot Cake, Plain Cheese Cake, Coca Cola Cake, and on and on.  :)

And what's the second big day?


Today is the first day of the Leafs Me Happy Blog Hop!  Friday is my day - I'll be showing you the fall block I've made.  But until then you'll want to be sure and check out the other bloggers who've been working on this project.  You'll find the schedule at Cherry Blossoms Quilting Studio (Cherry is the Head Cheerleader for this one) or you can check it out below:

I want to say a special thank you to Madame Samm at Sew We Quilt for dreaming up these Blog Hops - they keep me motivated and creative and productive.  I know it's a lot of work for her and for the Head Cheerleader but it's so worth it to all of us out here taking part, reading and getting inspiration.

Another Blogger Change...Does Anyone Know?

On my previous post one of my commenters, Rita, said she can't see most of the pictures on other people's blogs.  Is that a problem with her computer or with The New Blogger?  Anyone know or can advise her?

Blogger Has Changed Things Again!

I really don't like change.  Really.  Well maybe sometimes, but not when I'm not asked.  I've been blogging for years now and all this time when you comment that comment comes to me in an e-mail and I can respond right then.  All of a sudden I have "The New Blogger" (didn't ask for it) and I get no e-mails when you comment.  I can't find a way to correct that.  I tried.  A friend tried.  It doesn't work.  Anyone out there have this problem?  Know the solution?  I have a sad face.  :(


Update!   I think I have it fixed...I hope I have it fixed.  I went in to settings, checked my e-mail address, it was correct, I deleted it and retyped it just like it was to begin with, clicked save, and it worked!  Makes no sense but it worked.  Thanks to all who suggested I check there!
