Girls Weekend Out...

Hello everyone. Hope you are all well and have had a good weekend. I have really had a good weekend. After work yesterday, my friend, Beck, and I went to a local Christmas craft show that comes every year. The past few years, I haven't bought much but I got a few gifts this year. We didn't get to see everything... which was ok... because it closed before we got thru it all. (They had it again today but we had already made plans to go to Memphis to go Christmas shopping, too. ) It was so cold yesterday.. we wore sweats and both of us were still cold when the wind hit us! We went by on the way home and got some hot spiced cider.. it was good but not near as good as Diane's. Then we headed home...

Today, we went to Memphis and got burgers at TGI Fridays and then went to a few stores and looked around.. I got Hubby a few gifts last night and today... (I actually started my shopping last week... as I noted in a previous post.... ) I love just going and seeing all the decorations for the trees.... we do our tree different every year... the Pier 1 there was awsome! I loved it.. they have so much there that ours doesn't have.. but ours is a smaller store.... Hubby and I have already gotten Munchkin several things.. I'm sure there will be more.. ;-) This year, she can really tear into some packages! She is going to have a blast.

We are supposed to have some cooler temps this week and some rain. We need rain.. when we went over the bridge today coming back from Memphis, the water was low.. Beck said so, too. We really need a lot of rain..

Well, I'm going to go for now. I hope everyone had a good weekend. I wanted to come on and say hello. I will be extra busy this week. I have a meeting tomorrow and then I have to work Tuesday... It may be a few days before I can come on and visit.

Before I go, I ask that you all pray a special prayer for Jessica and Jason... Jason lost his job last week... you can read on Jessica's World what happened... it's really not fair... they are really worried and it is the Holiday season.... please pray for them.. hard.. they need it. As I said in a previous post title, God is Good.... and I am praying that Jason will get back his job... or get a better one!!!!

Hugs to you all..... Cecil

Thanks so much for your request of prayers for us. We need it! But you are very right... we have a great God who can do anything!

Glad you had such a good time!

Love, Jess

I'm glad you and Beck had a good time, Sis. We missed you today but I think you needed to get away a bit.

I wish you hadn't mentioned the hot spiced cider. Now you done flung a cravin' on me, LOL. Thanks for the compliment, though. ;o)

Yes, still praying for Jason's job situation.

Love you, hope to see you tomorrow (Monday).
