    The outside scenery is not quite as pretty now since most of the beauty that was displayed with so many colors of leaves is now gone just bare trees and the beauty gone too. But in our minds there is a period of rest and when the time arrives again new life will show up and there will be beauty again. However, there is still a view now and nature is being displayed in a different way, with the season changes.

    The alarm was set for 5:30 a.m.. I reached to turn it off at 5. That

    was a signal that my "engine" was warming early for the day's race. I

    hurried to my study to organize my thoughts for Bible study and to get

    God's Word into my head and heart before the world got its turn.

    The peace of God's Word calmed my spirit as I stepped into the day's

    routine of showering and dressing. Before I turned on the blow dryer,

    I heard a crash in the kitchen. "What happened?!" I yelled to Othel as

    Women/s Celebration Meeting was Tuesday, November 27. It was so good. The Family Life Center was just full of beautiful tables.

    I just was not able to do a table this year. I sat at Valerie Carters table which was so unique with large candles of varied height with greenery, little Santas, Christmas Balls, and Pine Cones around the base.

    Ginger Harrell and Angela Shirleys tables were both close by, but they ate at Valeries table because theirs were full.

I know there were over 30 entries for when Marie and I were looking for The Center Hill Float, we asked one person what number he was and he said 31...we were #21...We rode the float with the younger ones and enjoyed it, but we missed all the other entries so we're going to let the younger adults ride next year so we can enjoy seeing them!!!

    It was one of those hectic days last week - I was determined to make

    my completed stack of orders larger than my "to do" stack. My desk calendar reminded me of the Christmas countdown, and the ringing phone threatened me that the day's work might be extended. Even the doorbell chime sounded like: Hurrr- Reee.

    The beginning of the month has brought some gloomy weather outside. We can still be grateful for the good warm atmosphere on the inside. It is not so pleasant for the workers who has to get out so early to head out to their jobs.

    muddy roads would get frozen up and what a bumpy ride to get to school and
