Intentional reviewing and reflection helps with direction

Walking away from ‘drama’ and ‘negativity’ is most often the best diffuser 

Final Take Away:

Count your blessings

Name them  one by one

Count your many blessings

See what God has done.

If I were to count my blessings instead of sheep, I would always have restoring sleep. 

May God bless each of you also

December’s Finishes

A few quilts that were finished during the month:

Grrrrr ! ! !

I want to say thank you to everyone that has ever left a comment. I really appreciate them.

So, why the Grrr ! ! ! ? You asked a good question.

Earlier today I received a text message from a friend that reads my blog. She let me know she had left a message but it didn’t show up. This is because I have ‘moderation’ enabled. I had received some very inappropriate comments awhile back and wanted to make sure that none of my followers would be seeing that sort of ‘talk’, ???  Well, as I was checking my emails (which is how I am supposed to be notified of any and all comments) I didn’t have any current ones. I decided to just go check for myself. This is where the GRRRR came into being. Not only was today’s comment sitting there, so were several from a few months ago. I had no idea that these had been made. I was never notified, and because I haven’t been blogging much lately, I just figured other folks were pretty busy too.

Then after I published those I could find from ‘real people’ and tossed the others into ‘spam’, I decided to check what got published. According to my side of this blog, only one comment from Terry got lost in space, but I’m not sure how things will show up on your side of things. Please, let me know if you are still getting the posts delivered to your inbox. For some reason, Blogger won’t send me copies of my own posts. I have gotten to the point that I have the hubby forward them when he gets the email.

Technology can be a real pain when it doesn’t go as planned, but when it works ‘as planned’ it’s a great way to share with so many others.
