One Extra Day- God's Day of Grace

Today I was asking myself- what would I do with one extra day?  
 
I stopped to admire the beauty of this awesome place I am blessed to live on a perfect spring day
 
 

Sitting in this place I contemplated grace.  Living in grace.  I thought about Marjorie Holmes's prayer 'Just For Today'

 
Oh, God, give me grace for this day.
Not for a lifetime, for for next week, nor
for tomorrow, just for this day.
Direct my thoughts and bless them,
Direct my work and bless it.
Direct the things I say and give them blessing, too.
Direct and bless everything that I think and speak
and do. So that for this one day, just this one
day, I have the gift of grace that comes from your presence…

 
 I had one perfect day.  Because this one day is all you have.

You Know You're a Junker When...

You buy this at a flea market while on vacation, have to bring it back in your carry on and having to explain it to the TSA seems like "no big deal" to you:




Totally worth it, IMHO.  I know a few of you are nodding in agreement!

I also wanted to let everyone know I have cornered the market on tassels.  No nasty comments.... I have big plans.  Big plans I tell you!


I would love to hear any and all ideas besides bookmarks that you come up with to use these.  These particular tassels are the small-ish (about 4") size.  I saw a few ideas I would like to share.

 I could simply display them
have a tassel dinner party
 



the obvious
 

never know when you might need a footstool!
 

or use them to make even bigger and better tassels??
 


I'll keep you posted ;-)
