Last week was out of the ordinary.
For one thing, LB went out of town on business. I had to stay home so I could go to work (no Vacation time left).
Secondly, I didn’t publish a single post until November 9th when I blogged about a special birthday boy.
That said…

Enchanted
“A young maiden in a land called Andalasia, who is prepared to be wed, is sent away to New York City by an evil queen, where she falls in love with a lawyer” (source).
I watched this while LB was away. Amy Adams is so cute and perky. She had me laughing out loud while watching this movie! This show comes highly recommended!

Cello Whisps If you practice a KETO diet, this is a perfect snack food!
Whisps are made from just one ingredient: CHEESE! It is baked into an, airy, crispy, whispy bite! I ate a whole package by myself in one day. So Ashamed.
Favorite # FIVE
I am unable to keep up with social media during the day while I’m at work. When I came home last Tuesday evening and caught up with the daily events, I found that my Mama had endured quite a traumatic day. She was working in the yard and felt my Daddy’s wedding ring fly off of her finger. I think God was giving her the opportunity to be thankful for His goodness… now and in times past.
He was also giving her the opportunity realize how many others love and support her with their prayers, no matter what the circumstance. Between her post at 11:11am and the follow up post at 4:55pm, so many “friends” responded with actions and with words of encouragement and prayer.
Here is My Mama’s FB post:
Everybody start praying. Richard‘s wedding ring just flew off my hand while I was blowing leaves and throwing limbs.
November 7 at 4:55pm
I have been outside since 10 this morning working around the fire pit and slung a limb in the fire and felt the ring come off at the same time. And I have been praying all this time. It is now 5 pm. God is going to perform a miracle. I promised Him I would give Him all the glory for it. It has been lost twice before while Richard was wearing it; once in five feet of water and was found two weeks later with a metal detector. Richard cried when he lost it.
The second time was years later when we were on a hayride. It was found under a pile of hay on one of the slats of the horse drawn cart, and that was at night! Both were miracles. The ring is precious to me.
Just came in to take a shower and prayed again, asking God to let it be with my jewelry that I took off last night. I was so sure it was there that I waited to look until I got dressed.
There It Was
PRAISE GOD! To God be the glory! He keeps up with the hairs on our heads! I have NEVER EVER taken it off at night with my other rings. When he died they handed me his watch and ring at the hospital. I can’t tell you all what it means to me. And I know that everyone who prayed is a part of His answer; thank you all. Thank you Clay Rigdon and Dillon Rigdon for dropping everything and helping with the search. And thank you Dianah Moore Walden for coming over with her metal detector and helping.
You are LOVED Mama!
Thank you for taking time out of your day to stop by my blog.
