Just A Visit ...

Hello my dear friends,
      I miss you all very much.  But life has delt me to many hard cards lately so to speak..  I’m still caring for the boys which has been difficult.  They have many melt downs and nightmares it has been so hard on them without their mommie.  Though now they visit with her twice a week and with their baby brother who is growing so fast.  Malachi is eight months now.  The good of it is that God gives me strength everyday to care for them.  And to be able to teach them about Him and our Savior Jesus Christ.  We pray together every night before bed and read a precious book about the bible.  Isaiah the about to be six is praying on his own now and on one visit with mom prayed over his mommie.  And the younger Leonel is coming along interrupting prayer  saying tell Him (God) about mommie and don’t forget Malachi..  God is working in them and me as well.  Mommie (my daughter) is doing great and we are praying that they allow to her at this time to take the youngest Malachi with her.  She has almost completed her program.

Here is Malachi... he is crawlin and has teeth and is sweet and shy...

My great grandson Daniel is still in the hospital and has had two operations and they the doctors are speaking of a third...  We have put it in the hands of the LORD...  

HE SPOKE Daniels name to me and He is a prophet..  so I know God will not go back on His word...

Here is baby Daniel...five months now... His 18 year old mommie spends every single day at the hospital read the story bible book playing singing etc..  She as well is trusting in the LORD...  

The LORD is are only hope for survival in this wicked world..  For ourselves and our children..  so many young children are on drugs and dying from them.  Its really so sad..  my daughter in law best friends son recently died at 17 from drugs and another boy after him and a young girl of 16 after that. It’s so very sad.  Give our children God so they know there is a hope and it is called Jesus Christ.  We havent done anything more with mamas house..  things have been to much, my brother also passed away behind alcohol.  He didn’t go back to drugs but he did go back to the alcohol and smoking..  that was in July at the end ... and thats a whole nother story...

I recently found this large on ebay for a decent price...  I always wanted a clear one.  Never knew a green glass existed.  Just in time for Christmas cookies..  I hope that all of you are doing well..  much love Janice..

Im leaving.

     Hi everyone.  I decided to leave my blog.  I dont have much readers and I dont feel to visit people at this time to aquire visits back.  Thank you for those of you who have visited in the past.  God bless you all.  With love Janice

You thought it was over the storm...

     Here I’am again ....   My brother passed away yesterday early morning hours...  I want to say LORD what else...  I feel almost like we me and my eldest daughter are living in the storm of Job...  it is one thing after another.   It is just noodles.  I darn to speak what else.  I also lost my close cousin last month.  And this doesn’t speak of all the rest that goes on at the we call it The Blue house. (mamas house)  Lord, I feel like I need a miracle in Jesus name.  My brother died from abuse of drugs and alcohol.  A month after mama died he died and they revived him.  So he stopped everything he was doing drinking crack cocaine.  But eventually he went back to smoking and then drinking and was drinking like a fish.  He had a bad heart from all the abuse and was on ten ir more medicines.  I truly despise alcohol and drugs.  My oldest brother died from use of herion at 34 my father died of abuse of alcohol and cigarettes and I have many other family members who died from drugs and  alcohol abuse.  But I say it ends here please.  I don’t want no more LORD remove it from my life keep it far away from me.  I dont wan’t  to lose anymore family members for this reason.  I’m in a spiritual warfare.  To breaks the curse upon my family my children and grandchildren and generations to come.  The devil is a liar and you will not deceive me any longer.  Christ died for me for us to have life eternal with Him.  I refuse I refuse !!!!!    In Jesus name.   My brother’s death makes me want to preach the gospel to every living creature I come across more and more.  I’m more sadden not that my brother passed but that he died without being saved.  The bible says men died from lack of knowledge.  No understanding.  I want everyone to live in Him Jesus so they can feel joy and peace.  It is not about just going to church it is so much more than we think what we a lead to believe.  When He speaks in Luke 9:23 Saying, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.  It is that deny want you and put  me first do my will live my life go out into the world and save the people preaching the gospel.  Jesus is our model to make the Father known.  We were loved so much that He sent His only begotten son to pay the price for us.  He suffered beyondwhat you could imagine.  The details are so horrific that I just cried and want to give Him it all back by denying myself daily and picking up my cross suffering is part of the package but you receive joy and peace through it all.  He speaks saying in Luke 9:24  For whosoever will save his life shall lose it, But whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it..  I give my life to HIM, gladly because He gave His for mine.  I surely do I want to walk in eternal life with Him...  and I want to save the people as many as I can.  Repent and pray for forgiveness and walk in Him fully not part way.  Walk away from the world and follow Him, Christ our Lord and savior..  RIP IN PEACE BROTHER.  WE ARE ASKING FOR DONATIONS TO HELP WITH HIS FUNERAL, WE DON’t have enough monies...  sharing the link here...  If your able, Thank you in advance.

So many things...

🌿🌺🌺Hello there, It seems as if I lost all my followers.  Well I just wanted to let everyone know that so many things have been happening in our family and I just couldn’t get here.  Before that so much was going on I could barely post and visit a few.  Time was just occupied.  And now more that ever.  A month or so ago my you gest daughter tried to take her life and by the grace of God he allowed her to live after taking over 30 pills.  But now her children were takin away from her and im caregiver for the two older ones who are 4 and 5 years old, two boys.  The other baby boy  who five months old is in fostercare because Its impossible for me to care for him.  I don’t have the strength, I barely manage the two older ones.  She is doing much better now and is in a special program.  And besides this three weeks ago my great grandson was born and so many things are wrong with him.  He has already had one operation and I believe will be having another.  He remains in the hospital.  His mom is just 18 and very bright smart straight A student, was headed for collage.  But things happen and here we are.  I believe strongly in the LORD and I have gave it all to him.  Because me alone I couldn’t handle it.  The boys are struggling not having there mom.  They were and are very close.  I saw the baby yesterday and he was so happy.  Then he started crying and I wanted to cry too.  I told God i feel so bad that I cant care for him..  im sixty years old and pretty much broken body wise.  My hands hurts all the time with carpol tunnel and arthritis..  my lower back is in bad shape.  And other things.  But again I’m trusting in the LORD, it is all I have.  He says lean on to not your own understanding.  Give your burdens to me and I will carry themand Isaiah 41:10 says ; Fear not thou, for I’am with thee: be not dismayed, for I’am thy God; I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee, yea I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness..  and All I can say is thank you Holy Spirit...  there is no way I could do this with out Him..  I believe I believe....  He will heal my daughter in Jesus name, and He will Heal my great grandson In Jesus name,  I declare it all in Jesus name.  I have Faith in Him...  He who created me and all things.  I’m tired this morning the boys woke up crying for their mom at different times...  Please all if any of you read my blog still  please pray for us, prayer is powerful...  I miss you all and your loving post...  may the LORD bless you all...  With LoVe Janice..🌺🌺🌿

🌿🌺🌺This is my great grandson baby Daniel above, and the two boys below, Isaiah and Leonel Ellijah

🌿🌺🌺Sitting in my bed ...

Cookin Chinese dish Egg Foo Young🍴💐🌿

      🍴💐🌿Hi everyone....  things have been hectic almost tragic but I don’t feel to speak on it though..  instead I decided to share my egg foo young.  I had made some a few weeks back at mamas house and have been craving it since...  so I picked up some bean sprouts, eggs, mushrooms, squash and green beans..  and decided today was the day...

     🍴💐🌿. Here is how I do it slice up the mushrooms fry in some oil... remove chop some large piece of onions and fry in some oil. Remove. Then  Tiny tiny slices of green beans fry a few minutes then add some water barely coving them, let it cook down a bit. Remove.  Rinse bean sprouts drain well.

     🍴💐🌿. I used four large brown eggs put into a bowl beat them with a couple tab of water..  In a large bowl add bean sprouts, mushrooms, onions green beans and squash pieces.....  mix well.

      🍴💐🌿 I use a black small skillet.  Heat on stove add oil to line the bottom let get a tad hot add large ladle full...  cook to brown bottom.  Then flip to other side carefully..

     🍴💐🌿Other side...

     🍴💐🌿. Continue cooking all mixing up before each addition to skillet...

       🍴💐🌿. This dish reminds me of my papa, when I was young he would take me and my brothers to China town to eat.  I always thought it was such a wonderful place.   I hope that you enjoy these.  There are many different versions of egg foo young.  You can pretty much make up your own preference like I did..  you can also use shrimp, chicken, etc......      have a wonderful evening with Love Janice 🍴💐🌿

 

Sunday mornin early chatters🤓

     Hi there ya’ll,

In case your wondering I’m at mamas house came after discipleship kick off class to try and do a little which I did very little it was such a hot hot day..  I was wondering were spring had sent to and was summer coming the weathers been so ugly and windy and just yuk... its quite early 5:53 am now I didn’t sleep much last night.  Issues going on around here my little ole roll away bed boke after four years I don’t know why but the two middle legs won’t stay up they keep falling down.  So believe it or not this gal slept in a chair with another chair connected.  I don’t know how sleeping I got.  I’m really tired and don’t know how I’m going to church today.  Hopefully God will give me what I need and I will be there....

      So I decided to make myself a cup of hot tea with a dash of honey...  In this pretty mug called rose shadow, by Pioneer woman...  I adore this pattern and I have many pieces from it.  I really want the four place setting of the dishes.  But I have to wait.  And I hope while I’m waiting the price will go down...

     I have added the mugs and the crystal look like goblets that I love... And also I have four drinking glasses as well and a pitcher that goes to it.  A baking dish a rectangle one and a 8x8. Plus a round baker piece with a lid.  A butter dish and salt and pepper as well.  What I missed out on was a serving platter and a cake stand and I can’t find them no place....

      So pretty they are...  I always loved this cabinet and kept my dishes in here... separate from mamas  It had came from my dads truck, he used to have a hauling co.  Were they would clean out estates etc.  and he came by the house before going to the dumps.  And I had him take it off and bring it inside just like the corner piece and some others but I got rid of the most of those when we were cleaning out the basement.  I have one piece in my papas room for the kitchen but it will be a while before I can move the dryer over to the washer and then it will be placed by the stove.  And I will use it for a baking counter.  I have a big piece of marble my ex gave me and it will great for there but I will need someone to cut it.  

      Two of my mini cake stands...  

     There’s a kitty cat outside meowing ...  he is sitting on a ledge looking over towards mamas kitchen window.  I think it will be another warm day..

     Here are some new design pasta bowls...   

     These are mini pie dishes the cutest ever...

     Well my dears its almost time to start getting ready for church ....   please done be offended that I havent came to visit theres just so much going on and I’m barely going to do anything.. I’m leaving much love for you all with loVe Janice...  Have a most wonderful day🌸🌿🌺🌿

Mornin ya’ll

🍃🌸🍃💞.... Hi there, stoppin in to do some catching up...  I been running for months now between mamas house and mine.  I can’t even catch up anymore.  I’m grateful for all of you who have continually stopped by when I haven’t been able to come visit with you..  I’m home trying to catch up on my own house.  It seems to be getting harder and harder, my body is just a mess.  Hands hurt every day now somethings going on with the heel part of my foot, but I think it has something to do with my neck back and so on..    There is still so much more to do at mamas house.  But it will have to e ata slow pace.  Next week I will go back and try to finish up the kitchen and do some touch up work.  

🍃🌸🍃🌷🍃...  I spent hours cleaning the vent it was so sticky dirty..  I got half the stove clean just on top and the sides.  I need to find new knobs and do a ton more scrubbing.  I was going to get a new stove but that changed.  Was also going to move it but I decided not to..  and the man who was doing the mudding got sick and didn't finish the back wall so I have to do it..  The program did a lot but didn’t complete all things but I’m grateful for what they did do..

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  This corner piece I held on to for years it was in the basement.  No body wanted it but I said yes I’d been waiting forever.  We had a corner piece with just top shelves in the other part of the kitchen.  So for me it was a type of replacing a memory..

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  Here it is after three coats of paint just need my son to screw it to the wall...  I love it.

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  Here is the example of the-not finished things...  we totally need new flooring but it will come in time.  In the meantime I will do the door behind the stove.  They also painted the big cabinet yellow because they said they didn’t have anymore paint.  But I just might re paint it white like I originally wanted and leave the inside yellow.  

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  put some Pioneer woman dishes to see how I feel about it..

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  I like the yellow inside which I will cover the shelves themselves with paper that Pioneer woman came out with...

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  This Pioneer woman box comes with six glass jars but I removed them and put dish towels in it..  I love the little box..

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  the two left bottom ones are fro the wood box...the other four are down below in the pie dish left they had different colored lids.. so cute

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  love these sweet canisters ..  they are new for me..  

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  so funny to see actual cabinets on the walls and it to be painted...  can’t wait till its all finished..

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  My new Pioneer woman bread box.  It was the last one they were on re call and the last one I found they wouldn’t sell it to me that was months back..  and we went at the beginning of this month and there was one just by itself...  but I thought must be a mistake they probably will do the same..  as she rang it up I was waiting for her to say o sorry can’t sell it..  but lol she didn’t and I was so happy...YAY ME

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  The dear man who put the cabinets up and together...  he had a job it took some doing...

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  Him and his sweet daughter Jessica...  she helped him and also painted...

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  That same area before was just sheetrock nothing more and some crazy cabinets...

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  What a difference a day makes.  This is not permanent decor..  I have a ton of things to move later when I have a bedroom to move into...but this is a start to changing the past to the future...WALKING WITH THE LORD...  Couldn’t feel no better ..   

🍃🌸🍃🌷...  All credit goes to my LORD and Savior and Rebuilders San Francisco for all their amazing help..  Thank you..🍃🌸🍃🌷

                       🍃🌸🍃🌷...  Just sharing some moments with all of you.. I hope all is well with you and your families.. Blessings

                                                  🍃🌸🍃🌷...  with LoVe Janice..🌷🍃🌸🍃
