It's Wishcasting Wednesday over at Jamie's blog.
One of my BFF's, Kathy sent me this lovely photo
via text this this morning. Much to the chagrin of her teenage daughter, she decided to wear it shopping last night on November 2nd!!! It couldn't have come at a better time. Not only does it fit in with this week's question, but my life in general. Lately I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off.
There have been car issues, septic tank issues,
water pump issues, financial issues and grief issues.
 Many long coversations with GOD.
Including one session in which I explained to him that I was not Job!
There have been numerous school projects, late night hair color changes,
middle school mean girls, garage cleaning,
a baby shower was planned & hosted, the kids had a Halloween party
the family got together for 2 nights of Karaoke and...
YES. After months & months of torture. I finally got a dishwasher. Woot!
Needless to say there hasn't been much time to blog, tweet, think...etc.
Any down I have has been NAPPING:)
 So Jamie wants to know:

What Do You Wish To Enjoy ??

The simple things in life that sometimes go overlooked.
The daily blessings.
My friend has kept me laughing since we were two giggling school girls.
She keeps me grinning when my world is spinning.
There is nothing like having 2 microphones & group of people singing to help you
chase the blues away.
There will always be issues and there will always be the yellow pages or in my case, my cousin.
Who did doggone good job when it came to auto repairs!
The support of family and friends never ends.
They don't  just dress up and shower you with presents.
They shower you with love.

Now, I am off sink my teeth into a fried egg sandwich
and enjoy
Stephen King's Under The Dome .

P.S. only 3 weeks to go & my grandson will be born! I am so excited:)

Guess what? I was the grand prize winner at a twitter party hosted by Galtime and I received a gift card to Eden Home.  They are an organic store filled with eco-friendly products for your home and life. I have to tell you that I was overwhelmed with all of their fabulous products. It was tough to make a decision on what to buy. Here are a few of my selections:

The Cleo night shirt/tunic along with the cropped pants is the most comfortable outfit I have ever owned. It  hides a multitude of tummy flaws and also is  perfect  for a mom to be. So I also sent the shirt to my pregnant, future DIL.

This bamboo wrap looks great with the above outfit or with a tank and jeans or  a strapless dress. 


This cobalt serving bowl was a gift to my sister-in-law. She proudly placed it on her dining room table!


My mother needed some new pajamas. She is sleeping soundly every night in these pj's along with her new Organic Cotton Blanket. My hubby and I are also getting a good night's sleep on our  Organic Cotton Sheets.

 This adorable Vintage Garden outfit along with  2 pairs of Baby-Leather-Shoes and Pink Patch The Puppy-Snuggy Blanket are headed out to Texas to welcome my friend's new baby girl, Maggie!


Of course there is no way I could possibly go shopping without finding something for the Lily Pad! This Frog OrganicBaby Gift Set is for my new grandbaby to be!

I also purchased some  soy-candles and organic bath gifts for friends and family. I am sure that they will be delighted with their gifts. If you are looking for the perfect organic gift for yourself or someone special in your life, I highly recommend that you shop at Eden Home. You will not be disappointed. You can also be in the know. Eden Home is on FaceBook and Twitter. Right now they are having a Baby Shower Giveaway. They are giving away $2000 in prizes! I already created my gift registry for my grand baby and am hoping to win You should register as well, maybe you will be 1 of the winners!  Whether you make a purchase or become their fan on Twitter or Facebook, be sure to tell them that Lissal sent you their way. Also be sure to check out
Galtime's Cool website for great information and giveaways as well.

It's Wishcasting Wednesday and Jamie asks us this week:
What Do You Wish To Know?




Patience is a virtue which I do not have at the moment. BoBo & Missy are having their first baby.
My first grandchild. I have to wait until JULY to find out if it is a boy or girl. Gender neutral baby clothes are hard to find nowadays! There are so many cute outfits out there and I want to go shopping!


On a different note, I would like to know a few other things.I was feeling pretty overwhelmed a few weeks back. After reading an article (My Guardian Angel) in the March 22, issue of Womans World Magazine, I decided to ask God , my guardian angels and the universe for a sign. Well, make that 3 signs. In the article the woman had asked for a yellow bird. So I asked for a yellow bird, a parakeet or parrot and an orange bird. I figured the chance of me seeing these birds were pretty low. After sending out my request I  went inside and started watching TV. Not 5 minutes later a yellow bird appeared on the TV screen (in a commercial for pita chips), just like the one in the magazine. Later in the evening, my husband kept telling me I had missed an episode of Kirstie Alleys-Big Life. I was adamant that I had watched them all. But to prove him wrong I went ahead and turned on the latest episode. Right away there was a parakeet in her kitchen. (and he was right, I hadn't seen that episode) The next day I walked into my son's room and happened to glance at the TV. Yep, on the screen was an orange parrot
Later in the week I saw 2 orange cardinals (aren't they usually red?). 
So here is what I wish to know. I believe that these were signs. Do you think so too?
 Or am I running with an invisible ball or flapping my bird wings over nothing?
