Poor Maggie. We had to retreat to the safe room. She feels safer in the bedroom under the covers.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040510292724803196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-48445379130350142022011-01-01T19:01:08.003-06:002011-01-01T19:01:08.003-06:00"I choose to be free of the limiting thoughts..."I choose to be free of the limiting thoughts of the past and to not allow outworn habits or beliefs to control my life."<br /><br />Thanks Carol.<br />Perfect for New years.<br />A tough order, but a good one to strive for.<br /><br />Hope you all had a good day!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-42997586973288727662011-01-01T08:46:37.519-06:002011-01-01T08:46:37.519-06:00I thought that today's Daily Word is one we ca...I thought that today's Daily Word is one we can all use!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040510292724803196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-23202108146354858912011-01-01T08:45:56.680-06:002011-01-01T08:45:56.680-06:00Today's Daily Word
Saturday, January 01, 2...Today's Daily Word <br /> <br />Saturday, January 01, 2011<br /><br />New Day<br /><br />I enter this new year with enthusiasm!<br />This is a new day at the start of a new year, and I choose a new way of being. I choose to be free of the limiting thoughts of the past and to not allow outworn habits or beliefs to control my life.<br /><br />Perhaps I am guided to try something I have not tried before or go somewhere I've never been. If so, I open my mind to divine direction and guidance, and I accept these new experiences as loving gifts. I look for and find the blessings they bring--blessings of new relationships, hidden talents and the fullness of success.<br /><br />I am excited about this new beginning. Through the presence of God in me, my life is brimming with unlimited possibilities for good.<br /><br />He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God.--Psalm 40:3Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040510292724803196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2735094423029416610.post-18759966073280387542011-01-01T08:32:20.961-06:002011-01-01T08:32:20.961-06:00Good morning & Happy New Year everyone...

If I don't have a list I forget something.<br /><br />It is 10 pm here. I will probably be asleep at midnight. We had a quiet evening in and having soup. I cleaned out the fridge and made soup last night and we are having it again. We are having the coldest temp today and tonight for Dec. It is supposed to get down to 7 degrees F tonight. The high today was 25 degrees.

I won't start cooking until morning though, and I'm hoping that the fireworks are not too loud tonight. Em can sleep through the loudest thunderstorms (although one of my pups is terrified of them - and fireworks), but I'm not sure about what she'll do when the fireworks start.
