I picked up the 2 name cards and there were no typos in them. I went to the post office and remember how I wanted the Forever stamps of Winter Scenes? They had them so first thing I purchased a book of them. Now an $11.00 book of stamps will no way be enough postage to cover about $69.00 worth of mail to be mailed right. I had time right while I was in the post office to select what stamps to put on each package sort of like an accessory and I did. Yes, Holy Spirit can speak to you while you are at the post office, just listen to His prompts ok. I actually have 4 stamps left that I did not use. The 2 name cards should be delivered by 12/24. I trust Holy Spirit even in this mix up that they will be delivered just when they are suppose to be. He is always on time I have found in my life, have you found this to be true?
Oh I saw the Christmas star twinkling in the sky tonight. I made a care package up for the front office where I reside and dropped it off to them. As i wrote out their Christmas card I had tears and then again while in the office I got sentimental. I love where I live and I love the view I have when I sit on my patio. I shared that with the office staff and how it was a blessing when I found this place. They agreed that I have a nice view where I live. It is good to be thankful and show thanks also.
I stopped at TJ Maxx and found some of my favorite things, Korres bubble baths. Now you know I could not pass up purchasing them right? I also looked at jewelry and nothing really moved me to purchase. I tried on a pink sapphire ring and I think it was a lemon quartz ring also. I really did not like either of them enough to buy them. Let me tell you the scents I did find in Korres ok. I bought 2 travel size sets. First one is called "Sunny Escape." It includes almond & linseed nourishing hair mask/almond & linseed shampoo/bergamot pear shower gel(I use the shower gels as bubble bath)/neroli iris shower gel/neroli iris body milk. I do beleive I have used each of these scents before but never tried the hair mask.
Onto the 2nd set, it is called "Spread The Joy." This is a limited edition of the 6 best of Korres shower gels. It consists of: santorini vine/neroli iris/lavender blossom/ginger lime/cucumber bamboo/basil lemon. See my mind is already creating, mix the basil lemon with my zesty lemon scent that I already have. Maybe I should have been a person that creates fragrance scents? You know, years ago I used to create anointing oil scents. I figured out how to do it and I thought it was fun. I am very much so all about scents and scent combinations. Let me share the scent descriptions on the back of one of the boxes if I may.
Santorini Vine is a fresh, fruity scent of blossoming Greek vineyards. Neroli Iris is a sparkling Neroli scent balanced with powdery notes of iris bouquets. Lavender Blossom is a breezy scent of freshly cut lavender and citrus leaves. Ginger Lime is a fresh burst of lime with notes of spicy ginger. Cucumber Bamboo is a fresh, watery, green scent of cucumber blended with delicate bamboo notes. Basil Lemon is a green spice of dazzling freshness with a vibrant lemon zest touch. Are the descriptions wonderful?
When I lived in Ohio I planted lavender. I would water it each week with MiracleGro and was faithful to water it in the morning and evening. I loved it because neighbors would be walking and we would chit chat while I sat in my lawn chair and watered the plants. I would break off sections of it with my shovel and give it to neighbors to plant. I did the same with my hydrangeas and ornamental grass. I had the tallest ornamental grass in the complex where I lived. This is the same place I planted a mustard seed I got from church and a beautiful flower blossom bloomed. I also experimented with planting good quality corn seeds in a patio planter. Guess what? It grew and I did not eat the corn but used the dried out stalks to decorate harvest time that year. This is also the same place where I would walk and watch the local farmer harvest crops. I would also see the eagles soaring in the sky and I knew the very tree that they had their nest in. One day the farmer was harvesting corn and he was using one of those big combine harvester machines and I asked him if it was ok for me to watch. Guess what? As I was observing there were corn kernels flying all over the place. Maybe I was too close for the observation what do you think?

Last time I was home these are some of the hydrangeas I planted years ago. I do not think they know about pruning them what do you think? |
Do you notice something, other than the lavender section I planted plants in the ground that had decorative stones there. I would have to push aside the stones and try to dig the dirt just to plant in these areas. I am telling you MiracleGro really works if you are faithful to apply it weekly.
This is one of the hydrangeas I planted. I also made jewelry back then and used the flower as a background display when I took a picture.
