Joy in the morning.

Peace and contentment  :)









A joy That's deep fills My soul.

It radiates around My home back to Me.



Even My crafts sing  to me....



of this joy,it's true.

Yes,I like to sprinkle it around My home.



Makes My soul dance and My husband has be given tolerance and a kindness and lovingly observes My dance.




Looking up at My walls can bring sweet thoughts of those who pass through My life-All those who have been gifts to Me,

and some that have given Me roots,
I pray I can pass



the joy to others.



Even when life seems to bring sadness My way, 

the joy of life will return.


He -The creator of all ,is always there with you and will return your joy.       Denise

Simple bits and pieces here and there.


Lace and candles together make my heart flutter.
Bits and pieces here and there bring such easy giggles to My heart.


This lace and pearl beauty I found years ago at a thrift store.It was one of those grab fast experiences, You know .
A Grandsons gift to Me :) Made by His hands right next to Me.They all love Grams arts and crafts :)
A few post ago My latest creation looked like this.....
Now it looks like this.
Because I really like birds and swags.

Very early this morning,looking up toward the new day.Filled My soul with joy.
This is how I feel  much of the time when I look up,I wish you the same.

Birds sing to their king.

Lets have our coffee and tea outdoors with the birds.That's what I've been doing since I was a young girl.


Nothing like going outside around 5:30 am  sitting in a favorite spot out in the back yard with a hot drink, a Bible, poetry, and  a journal or even with nothing in hand.I close My eyes each time and


listen to the birds worship the King.




( Coffeeberry in mouth ,wink) 


Here's where a sit lately.Looking up to the sky,trees and My mountain.Thanking The King with the birds, then with eyes closed I sit silently and listen to their song that's also within Me.


She is one of My miracles,such a charmer.So sweetly He has given to Me. Love Denise  Linking up with Beverly's Pink Sat. and Tea with Sandi,at Tea Time Tues. her blog you can also find on My sidebar.

A road trip-You can plan it for Me if you like :)

Were taking a vacation! From Southern CA.  Rancho Cucamonga to Victoria B .C. If you love planning trips and really want to,go ahead and plan it for Me.I'm not kidding.We want to travel 300 or so miles a day.We always stay at AAA 3 star hotel/motels and were taking our two tiny dogs with us. The only plan I have is to stay maybe one or two nights in the Empress hotel and have tea.Since we've spent our lives in South.CA,We've both traveled several times up to San Fran. but not past.Low fat for tea-wonderful thought,

also low fat fun for tea and coffee.

I do love staying near nature,don't you? My dear Paul says He wants to drive the Hwy 5-eeks all the way up and the 101 all the way down. In our new Toyota Rave 4 we just bought last week.



Not diet :(
Enjoy your week.No more planning holidays for now-YES.I like the freedom until Nov.I wonder if I'm alone in feeling this way.
Gods blessings I pray to all that come by this way-Denise
One of my favourite songs that makes me realise God’s always around. — Dancing with God, Verse 1: You dance over me While I am unaware, You sing all around But I never hear the sound, Chorus: Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You How You love me Verse 2: You paint the moring sky With miracles in mind, My hope will always stand, For You hold me in Your hand.
