May Love Light Your Halloween Lantern! -Postcard Friendship Friday #330


I posted this lovely little postcard in 2010.  I have been so busy this past week that I'm reposting it.  It was is a first to find pumpkins and cherubs together!  I had never seen that before or since.  The idea still hits my funny bone.  These two little fellows look like they are up to something, don't you think?

This weekend will be a poignant time for me.  This coming Sunday will be the two-year anniversary of my Beloved's home-going. Some days it seems as though he left just yesterday, yet other times it is as though he has been gone for the longest time. I miss him.

Grief is like the ocean--there are storms of tears--then moments when the waves sparkle in the sunshine. I will always, always be thankful for the great adventure my husband and I shared. What an unusual life I have led!

That adventure continues...I walk hand in hand with the Creator Who loves me, I walk through the valley of shadows, I drink of cool refreshing waters. I sit with Him in the sunshine, laugh and weep with Him in the rain... I am grateful for His Presence here with me. He is my Friend.

In the meantime, enjoy the harvest, pumpkins and celebration, sweet Friends.  Thank you for your good thoughts and prayers. Have a great week, everyone, and Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

Pumpkin Queen -Postcard Friendship Friday #329


Isn't this a lovely blast from the past?  I like this lady's dress and the vibrant fall colors in this postcard.  Those pumpkins seem to think she's pretty special, too.


I think I've posted this one before.  I decided to add it in today, because this is a childhood dream of mine.  I loved the idea of living in a pumpkin house--a little place with pretty round windows, all my very own.  As the eldest of six, space of one's own was hard to find sometimes.  Ah, but it was great fun to be a part of such a wonderful big family.

Have a great week, everyone, and Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

I LOVE my Jewels


I have NO idea why this lady is kneeling on the rug ecstatically clutching that bit of jewelry as though it were her long-lost love . . . but it is actually kind of funny.

I am re-posting this vintage postcard.  I recently came upon it and between the postcard and the comment, I had a really good laugh this morning.  Heehee

I am doing very well recovering from my surgery.  I no longer need the walker and only use the cane when I'm going outside!  I am SO happy about that!

Have a lovely week, dear Friends.  It is nice to take time out to laugh, isn't it?  LOL

Best Wishes, Forgetmenots and Doves -Postcard Friendship Friday #328



Hello, sweet Friends.  I apologize for being late this week, but it is still a chore to sit for very long in front of the computer and I am just now getting caught up on a lot of things.

I had hip replacement surgery a month ago, and have been steadily regaining my health.  I have graduated from using a walker, to a cane, and I am actually able to drive now.

It has been less than two months since I first discovered the need for surgery.  These past few months have testimony of the miracles of God's loving provision and care.

Thank you, those of you who prayed for me.  I am still in awe of His perfect timing. I am SO grateful to God for you.  May our Mighty Creator bless you, dear ones.  Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!
