Sunday Blessings #1

-
I would like to have others join me in this Sunday Blessings, so if you are looking for a new writing for Sunday or just want to share a quick blessing that you have experienced, please link up with us here.  Be sure that you add the link in your post to this one so that others will know to come back to Slatersfunnyfarm  and read what other writers have done.


First, I would like to share the Bible verse that I read today. Many of you are aware that I have started each day reading a verse from King James Online site and that I take my Bible Study from that some days. I do read a devotional most days as well. I like to share this one when I can though as I think that it never hurts to get a little bit of God's Word when we can.

“Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”
1 John 4:4 (KJV) 

How can we have blessings without God being greater than this old world? It seems as though the media rarely finds good in anything these days, which is sad as there are still good people in the world. 

 My blessings from this week are as follows:

 1.The court hearing to appeal the nursing home making us move my mother in law is over and I no longer have to stress about that. We should know a decision this week.

 2. My grand doll appears that her legs are healing quite nicely and I believe the pins and plates in the left leg will be out soon. 

 3. I am blessed to have a roof over my head, food to eat, and a nice warm place to sleep each night. I am thankful that when it is below freezing outside, I have a nice woodstove to keep me warm.

4. I am blessed to have good friends in my life and I am blessed to have blog friends as well.

    It is always so important to remind us the be thankful. So many of us take things for granted...until we no longer have them. We would never open a gift from a friend without thanking them. So why would we accept God's wonderful gifts without thanking Him??

      I certainly will. I think I want to do this weekly. I thought I had it so that you could link to it. I truly am not technical at all.

    These are all wonderful blessings. Each of us can find things to be thankful for if we just stop to thing about it.

      Yes, we can. I feel that we get bogged down by life and forget to be thankful.

    Yes, you are blessed and sometimes it's good to just put them in writing. I often need reminders when I stress about "Life".
    I am feeling blessed because my care-giving long day went very well with my friend who has beginning Alzheimer's.
    My son and his wife were able to get away for 2 days and leave some very difficult family problems behind.
    My Hubby and I had a chance to go out to dinner yesterday and just enjoy each other's company.
    Blessings to you too.

A Grandson

 As I was looking through my posts today, I see that I have failed my readers. Many of you were aware that my other daughter was pregnant and going to deliver in July, I am sure those of you that knew are wondering why I never posted about that and I must say that life has just gotten in the way, and I thought that I had written a post. Since I know I did not, I will now! He came when Mamaw was out of town! Can you believe that? He actually had the nerve to do something so ridiculous as to come while I was at the Pink Zebra reunion (our annual conference). I was with four of my best friends when we got the announcement that he was here! I was so happy that I was able to share that news with them before anyone else. Of course, the leaders of the company were there and anxious to hear how she was doing as well.  Deliver went fairly smooth, but she was in labor for quite a while. I am not sure on hours, but I think about 6 hours. There were some issues with my daughter following delivery

Something is Falling From The Sky

 Yesterday and today have been very cool days here on the farm and I must say that something that we don't recognize has been falling from the sky. It is wet and seems to be hanging around. IT is certainly what the ground needed as it seems to have soaked it up almost immediately. Rain, glorious rain!! The ducks are loving their pool and the rain, but I truly don't think that they are liking the cooler temperatures so much. I know I am not. I don't mind cool, but wearing my sweatshirt in June is not fun.  The white turkeys are enjoying the coop that my husband put together for them. We have 5 of them and two others. We won't be keeping all of the toms as we have too many.  Nesting boxes made of milk crates that we had lying around work well attached to the back wall.  Here is Tom. He is such a great boy, but he likes to show off. He gets along well with the chickens.  These are my Old English chickens. I like them as they are small and will never get much bigger. I actu

Happy Homemaker Monday - Jan. 15,2024

 Good Monday morning ladies, how are you? It is super cold here, but I am thankful for our wood stove and plenty of good heat. I am joining Sandra over at  Diary of a Stay At Home Mom  for the Happy Homemaker Monday link up party. She is so kind to host this weekly and there are many of us bloggers that enjoy this weekly post.  The Weather: Cold, snowy, below zero wind chills and temperatures of a night. I believe our high for the day is to be 7 degrees F. BRR!!!!!! I hate winter when it is like this. I don't mind cold, but I don't like Artic cold. I am not a fan of the ice that occurs when we have temperatures like this.  Right Now, I Am: Sitting at my desk drinking coffee. As I look out the window, I see a bit of snow and maybe a bit of a sunrise. It is about -18 degrees with the windchill and so it looks cold! I am listening to the news that my husband left on when he went out. It is not something I care to do, but I just haven't gotten up yet, to change it.  Thinking an
