<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My 2019 word of the year is COURAGE, which goes right along with TRUST. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths. ~Proverbs 3:5-6</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. ~Joshua 1:9</div>
<br />
Perfect words for my year. I realize it's now April, but I did choose COURAGE & TRUST at the beginning, I've just been too busy and too preoccupied to post them until today. I feel I can nail them down now and stick with them for the year.<br />
<br />
This is my year of change, which requires COURAGE from the Lord and TRUST in the Lord. This year, our daughter graduates . . . this year, I retire from teaching (homeschooling our only daughter) . . . this year, I discovered my body isn't going to cooperate with my idea to go out and get a new career . . . so, this year also means learning and doing new things to keep my body going and it means a "wait" for the right opportunity in terms of a new career. <br />
<br />
It's tough, I can't deny that. God doesn't promise anything in this life will be easy, but He does promise that He will be with me through it and will allow exactly what is necessary for me. I praise the Lord that He is in charge of me! With His courage, I will go forward with complete trust in Him.<br />

Last year I choose a "word of the year" for the first time and really found it helpful to focus on that one word . . . JOY. Happiness relies on situations and circumstances, but JOY is a choice. JOY is centered on Christ. In Him, we always have reason to rejoice!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything (<i>and in every situation, no matter what the circumstances</i>) give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 Thes. 5:16-18</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Tomorrow, I'll announce my word for 2019! Do you have one? Choosing a "word" works much better than making resolutions!</div>

Christmas is only a week away, check out Crazy Frank's Indoor Flea Market (Mineral Point, WI) for a unique gift for everyone on your list! I just restocked Booth #113 (in the big room to the right) yesterday!</div>

If we have Jesus as our Savior, and God's Word to turn to, we have hope!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me (following Me as My disciple) for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls. For My yoke is easy (to bear) and My burden is light. ~Matthew 11:28-30</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i></i><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When life seems hopeless, mundane, or overwhelming, instead of turning to what is temporary (food, shopping, drinking, videos, games, . . .), turn to the One who's love for you is so great He sent His son to die for you. God is always there, any time of the day or night and anywhere to hear your prayer. Open the Bible, His letter to us; in it you will find hope and peace. Turn to the family of believers, be there for each other. Sometimes just turning away from our own troubles to be a help to someone else, gives us the different perspective we need. Be available to help, listen, or do whatever is needed. Smile, say hello, be ready, you never know when you might be the help someone is desperately looking for today.</div>

<br />
Many prayers are going out for Texans involved in the flooding and aftermath of Hurricane Harvey. <u>One of the most amazing live press releases I watched today</u> . . . the police chief of Houston, emotionally reporting on the recovery mission and death of a well-loved fellow officer who got caught in the flooding on his way to report to work. What a tragedy to have to report, but at the same time, he gave the news with great hope, right there on live tv (thank you Jesus for live tv during these times). The officer was a believer in Jesus Christ as his Savior, which is of great comfort to his wife and all those who knew him. The police chief asked this man's now-widow, (my paraphrase) "if this was his day to go, wouldn't he have wanted to go while doing service to his community instead of any other way?", and her answer was "yes." We can have comfort in the knowledge that those who are believers in Jesus as their only Savior, will be in immediate Paradise. As sad as we are to lose them from our presence here, we know they are now spending eternity with our Lord Jesus and we can do the same! Praise the Lord! Don't wait until it's too late. <br />
<br />
Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. ~2 Cor. 5:8<br />
<br />
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. ~Romans 6:23<br />

Another move! Stop in at Crazy Frank's Indoor Flea Market (full of vintage and antique treasures) and visit my newly moved and re-designed booth! Still #113, I've moved to the large room on the right (as you walk in, turn right, enter the large room, go straight ahead until you come to the back wall, turn right, I'm just a little ways on your left). The new move allows me to be a little more creative with my booth design and I'm loving it so far!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Coming soon: more mason jars (coming this week), more vintage-inspired bags (coming next month), and more! Check it out, lots of vintage, antique, and vintage-inspired treasures for your home! Don't forget to pick up a new dishcloth (vintage-inspired colors to choose from)!</div>

. . . new dishcloths! I've decided to focus on vintage colors in my dishcloths to coordinate with your vintage-decorated kitchen, or simply to give you a smile when you see the vintage colors (and they trigger a memory of that old "harvest gold" or "avocado green" refrigerator you had when you were a kid)! The dishcloths are in vintage-inspired colors from the "Vintage 50s", "Retro 60s" or "Retro 70s". Also still available are dish towels: Vintage-inspired "Pig Meal" feed sack and "Chicken's Beware" . . . and much more! </div>

I've moved! Booth #113 at the Crazy Frank's Indoor Flea Market in Mineral Point has moved to the main (entrance) room! If you've visited before, instead of taking the left hallway to enter the side rooom, go straight and I'm the 3rd or 4th booth on the left. Look for my "Booth #113" and "Welcome to my Vintage Store" signs!<br />
<br />
New additions: "Chicken (Beware) Dinner" Dish Towels, "Pig Meal" Feed Sack-like Dish Towels, Retro Eye Glasses Cases . . . and Vintage Pint Jar Soap Dispensers are back in stock (black lids and pumps) . . . both quart and pint are available once again (have fun picking your favorite vintage jar!). Also many wonderful vintage Valentine's gifts! <br />

<strong>Chicken, Stuffing and Cranberry Dish</strong><br />
<em>(makes approx. enough for 3-4 people, double if necessary)</em><br />
<br />
<strong>Have 10 minutes to make a quick, but hearty and warm lunch (or light supper)? Try this, it will honestly take you only 10 minutes, start to finish! </strong><em>Thank you, Michele Wilder for the recipe!</em><br />
<br />
1 box Stove Top Stuffing (lower sodium chicken)<br />
1 can (12 oz) 100% Natural Chicken<br />
1/4 cup dried Cranberries<br />
1 2/3 cup Water<br />
4 T Margarine<br />
<br />
1 bag Frozen, Steam-In-Bag Veggies<br />
<br />
In a saucepan, put 1 2/3 cup water and 4 T margarine (or butter), the partially drained chicken and cranberries. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, fold in Stove Top Stuffing, cover with lid and let sit for 5 min. Throw a bag of Steam-In-Bag veggies into the microwave according to directions on the bag. By the time the veggies are done, the stuffing dish will be ready too!<br />
<br />

New dishcloths (including heart shapes!) and new hats (new design with a cute braided look going down the side of a slouchy!). New Valentine's Day items, window catchers and decorated vintage cookie cutter and tart pans, perfect for gift giving! There's even a vintage Charlie Brown Valentine's book!</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Many mason jars for your vintage, farmhouse, rustic chick and more decorating styles! I've added mason jar flower frog lids (galvanized) that make flower arranging easy!</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<strong>Special Note:</strong> I'll be moving the booth before the end of the month!!! The new location is brighter and in the first room (instead of taking the left hallway to enter the side room, go straight and it'll be the 3rd or 4th booth on the left). Look for my "Booth #113" and "Welcome to my Vintage Store" signs.</div>

First (accumulating) snow of the season! It's so pretty and makes everything look fresh again. It also brings us indoors, beside a cozy fire . . . perfect time to read a good book, watch a movie, play a game (you know, all those inside things we start thinking of this time of year). </div>

<strong>Happy Thanksgiving!!</strong></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The turkeys came to our yard for Thanksgiving today (20 of them in this group). They love the remnants of our little straw bale garden (brussel sprouts). No, we're not eating any of these turkeys, we just love watching them. It's exciting to see how many come by each day. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Today's a great day to remember what we're thankful for . . . God (and His Word), Jesus (and His sacrifice on the cross for ME), the Holy Spirit (to guide my days), family (blood relatives and our close church family), friends, warm home, wood stove, cuddly dog, chickens, roomy van, coming snow, running water, venison in the freezer, tea and coffee, Christmas music, freedoms we have as Americans, vintage shopping, new washing machine, . . . I could go on and on, I have so much to be thankful for. <strong>What are you thankful for today?</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Crazy Franks indoor flea market in Mineral Point is stocked full and ready for Christmas shoppers!! Over 100 vendors have their booths full of wonderful vintage and antique and some art/crafts.

<em>And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. ~Colossians 3:17</em></div>
