New Blog!

I am planning a New Blog...
Please stay tuned.. I will be posting my new Blog.  This one has been closed, so I am not able to make any new posts to Facebook or tweet.  Time to get a new life.... Time for a new Blog.
I do love to Encourage, as I need that in my life.  This winter has been good for me to recover and close off from the world, but at the same time, it's not been good health wise.  Especially for my mental health.  But I have reconnected with the Lord in a wonderful way.  So I am ready to start a new life and begin to feel good.  I am losing weight... I am glad to say that at the age of 62 I am getting my weight down...Thank you Jenny Craig.  My husband also has joined me in the diet.
Well, please come back soon.  I'll have my new Blog posted as soon as I come up with a nice name for you to view.
If you have any suggestions do let me know.  I want to keep the word of Encouragement or Encourager if I can.

I'm BACK!!

Hello all you Warrenville ITES!!!

I am back and with an excitement and ready to bring ENCOURAGEMENT to those of you dragging from this Cold weather and other difficulties that you are facing. 

It's been a while since I have been to this Blog, but I have decided that it's time I bring this back and with more excitement.... I am going to try and Blog to all of you while I am out of the country.
This will be good therapy for me and also for all of you that have never been abroad.  Well, I am a broad, but I have NEVER been ABROAD to the other side of the world.

I am heading for Turkey SOON....I will be reunited with my awesome son James and his new Bride, Ebru.  James has a love story that some of you are familiar with.  He met Ebru on the Internet about two years ago.  Keeping in touch, and through Skype, they decided that it was time to meet face to face.  James went there for Christmas in December of 2012.  Ebru joined us here in the States in March of 2013; then in November of 2013, they were married. 

As I get closer to leaving for Turkey, I will write more for you.  If you have any questions, please submit them to me.  I will be glad to answer whatever I can.  I will be at the Capital of Turkey in Ankara.  It will be very educational for me, plus it will broaden my views of the rest of the world.  What an education for me that College could never offer.  I love learning about other cultures.  I will also share with you what the foods are like.  There is a limitation to what I can ingest, but I am willing to go beyond my comfort zone and try different foods, with the help of my gorgeous Daughter in Law, Ebru.  She will be my source and the trust that I need to push through the barriers that have had in the past.  The older I get the less I enjoy being out of my comfort zone.  But now it's time to push past that, and move ahead, and be willing to extend myself beyond my limitations.

In the meantime, I am thinking of all of you and yes, I am ready to encourage many of you... I need the encouragement and I find that if I reach out to others to encourage, I myself will be encouraged in the Lord.

I hope you will be with me, as I journey on to a new life, a new journey, and new friends to bring into the circle of my life and also introduce them to your lives...

I will also post pictures for you...  I promise...

We are living in some tumultuous times and it's times like these, that we need more of an outpouring of Love, consideration and care for each other; but most of all, LOTS of prayers.  We need to prevail in these times and we need to succeed so that we can help others to grow and become stronger in their faith...

God Bless all of you.  Jesus is alive and well, and HE is getting ready soon to take us HOME in the everlasting ARMS of HIS LOVE!!! 

Are you ready to join me?  Awesome.... Hang in there and I will be back with more writing!  I can't wait.  This is exciting.

Making the best of the day.

Make the best of this day.  It's the only day of it's kind.
Even if you do nothing but relax.

Enough said.

Also don't forget to listen to music.  It can soothe that sore muscle in your head, called your brain.

Kane County Cougars.....








What a great place to enjoy a wonderful day of Baseball and to see such characters as Ozzie the Cougars.  Ladies, he's a cutie.  You might even get a hug from him.

If you love Baseball, and to be outdoors, please enjoy a time at Kane County Cougars.  You'll have a wonderful time. 

If you see Ozzie, tell him that I say HI!!!

It's been a while....

I sure do miss the joys of summer.  It's sort of sad to say GOODBYE, but thank God we have memories. 
I am such a lover of warm weather.  It seems that you can do so much in warm weather that you CAN'T do when it's cold outside. 
How are all my readers doing?
I know for me that 2012 has been a very trying year for me, and it seems that it keeps getting harder to just stand UPRIGHT.
I am SO grateful for all you out there that read my blog.
Please answer back and tell me where you are from and how you found my blog?
I would love to hear from you.
Share with me what is your favorite season of the year?
It's always nice to hear from others.

Is anyone out there?

I am going through my blogs and am so blown away by all the countries that have viewed this blog.  I have always wanted to travel to Europe and all parts of this world.  I am asking you a favor.
Please leave a comment,  even if it's just a short thought or two?  I would love to keep in touch with all of you from all over the world.  What a nice way to connect.,
It's a pleasure that you view this blog and most of all it's a real treat if you like what I write?
I sure hope you will do this for me?  
God is watching all of us!!!

The Village Chronicles is pleased to introduce its readers to its new column, The Encourager, written by Deni Weigel Eads.
Married for over 32 years and the mother of three sons, Deni is a longtime Warrenville resident and a retired alderman.
Asked about the name of her column, she responded, “Encourage means ‘to inspire with courage, faith, and hope’. How many times have you turned to your family or friends to be encouraged with some sort of endeavor you are inspiring to accomplish? This [column] is my way to give back to this awesome community that we love. Please share with me [any] obstacles that you are facing.”
Sample column
To the Encourager
Yikes! I am having a family gathering in a few weeks and forgot to invite my Aunt Sadie. This is strictly by accident. Now my entire family is so mad at me and wondering how in the world could that happen? I have called my aunt several times to apologize and to invite her, but she has the entire family turned against me and now NO one wants to come. I have been planning this for weeks. I am so upset and so is my husband, and our kids. I don't know what to do and how to handle this? Do you have any suggestions?
Signed:
Upset and Sad
..................................
Dear Upset and Sad,
First, we all forget to do things in our lives, it is just natural. How about going to your Aunt Sadie's home to talk with her in person? I am sure that if you extend the olive branch in a manner of speaking she might see the light. Explain to her that you had no intentions of excluding her from this party. Tell her you love her. Ask her if there weren't times in her life when she forgot to call someone back?
Planning a party can be so stressful even if it's just for a few folks, let alone an entire family gathering. Try to add some humor in there that you almost forgot to include your husband in the gathering. I am sure she will settle down and you can call everyone back with the positive news that the party will still happen and let us all forgive and forget and get ready to have some fun. The kids would really be upset if no one wanted to come over.
Now go pick out a cute outfit for the gathering and write out your checklist to make this party very successful, so that in the future this won't happen again for you.
Here's wishing you all the best.
—The Encourager
