I saved seed from a white pumpkin and planted that seed the spring of 2020. I got three pumpkin from the plant. I decided to call them my "soft color pumpkins" a wee little green pumpkin, a white pumpkin and a soft orange pumpkin.
A few jokes to brighten your day..
What do you get when you drop a pumpkin? Squash
What did the tree say to autumn? Leaf me alone

A fallen leaf is nothing more than a summer's wave goodbye.
My sister gifted this candle to me. As I went out to vote yesterday.. I was thinking about Veteran's Day coming up next week. Again reminding me how thankful I am to have the right to vote, because of Hero's who have stood up to evil when freedom was in jeopardy.
Joyce asks the questions.
We answer the questions.
1. How do you define peace?
At this time we have a friend who is dying, our dear friend Marv, who has been a subject to many of my stories here on the blog. He is a Korean War veteran. He talked to me many times about the war and God. He was thankful he had God in his heart. I am thankful I do as we say good bye to him. Having trust in God gives me peace.
2. November 3rd is Election Day in the US of A, but did you know it's also National Sandwich Day? Let's vote, shall we? egg
salad or tuna salad? Egg Salad! chicken salad or grilled chicken on a bun? Chicken Salad! peanut
butter and jelly or a bagel with cream cheese? Bagel with Cream Cheese! turkey and swiss or ham
and cheddar? Turkey and Swiss! grilled cheese or pimento cheese? Grilled Cheese! roast beef-corned beef-or
make mine veggie? Roast Beef!
3. When did you last say (or feel) 'no rest for the weary'?
In late September when we started our staining the house and change the trim colors of home project.
I was enjoying a day at my home sweet home!
5. Share a favorite song, verse, or quote featuring the word 'peace'.
“And he said, ‘O man greatly loved, fear not, peace be with you; be strong and of good courage.' And as he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, 'Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.’ ”
Daniel 10:19
6. Insert your own random thought here.
If you were to ask what is most important in a home, I would say memories.

Hello Friends,
Today I am going to share with you about a project I did this summer. My husband built me the door you see below for my garden shed.
The inside of the homemade door was a simple piece of chip board. I had an idea of making it a chalk board door.
I started with Kilz. I painted two coats of the Kilz on to the chip board.
Next I used Chalkboard Black paint, I painted three coats of the chalkboard paint on to the chip board.
I enjoyed using the Rust-oleum brand. It painted on the chip board well and I was pleased with the results.
I wondered how it would work to write on the DIY chalkboard door, well it was smooth as can be. The chalk also erased well. I am very pleased with my "new inside door".
I plan on changing the quotes each month. Do you have a favorite quote you would like me to share on my chalkboard door?
