Tuesday, November 22, 2011. Rabbi Harold Kushner) "Can you see the holiness in everything you take for granted- a paved road or the washing machine? And I, Donna would add- the microwave, the telephone or refrigerator? If you concentrate on finding what is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul.". Hem your blessings with thankfulness so they won't unravel. (Unknown). Monday, November 21, 2011. There are so many th...

Donna's Booknook: June 2011
http://donnasbooknook.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. I know there are many people who are trying to find a job, and certainly not really expecting to find the "perfect" job. I, too, searched a long time for a job, and I did finally find the perfect job! I thought I should share it, just in case this might help someone else. 1 My first job was working in an Orange juice factory, but I got canned; couldn't concentrate. 4 Next, I tried working in a muffler factory, but that was just too exhausting. 8 I studied a long time to become a.

Donna's Booknook: July 2012
http://donnasbooknook.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 7, 2012. I know it has been over 6 months since I have posted on my blog. So it's possible many have given up on me. However, I just couldn't resist posting these pictures of my Rose of Sharon plants. Lo, and Behold! Yesterday my hubby said, "Donna, those "things" you planted at the corner of the house have flowers. So I rushed out to see. I was very excited. Thus, this post, to share them with others.

Donna's Booknook: November 2010
http://donnasbooknook.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 24, 2010. It seems to me sometimes, in this fast-paced world we live in, that Thanksgiving sort of gets lost in the push for Christmas. I'm seeing Christmas decorations, and gift displays, and already hearing Christmas music in the stores. I've come across some Thanksgiving quotes and wanted to share a few here. As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them. Fred D. V. Amburgh). Gratitude unlocks the fullness ...

Friday, July 29, 2011. A Work in Progress. Just wanted you to know that my blog background is not as I would like it to be. I had to take mine off as they wanted a rental fee for it. Now I can't get it as I would like it, but no time today. I'm leaving for Birmingham, Alabama in the morning with a group of 6 people from my church to help the tornado victims in that area. I will be gone for one week, so will try to work on this when I come back. Thursday, July 28, 2011. The Four "F"s- A Great Combo! The g...

Donna's Booknook: December 2010
http://donnasbooknook.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 31, 2010. Before the clock strikes midnight tonight, I thought it would be well to reflect on the past year. Yes, there have been many challenges and struggles, but there have been so many ways and so many times that the Lord has blessed abundantly. My devotional this morning was from C. H. Spurgeon. It said so well what I would have liked to say, I wanted to post it here. The word "hitherto" seems like a hand pointing in the direction of the. But the word also points. For when a man get...

Donna's Booknook: August 2011
http://donnasbooknook.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 21, 2011. Finally- I'm a Grandma! If you have followed my blog, you know that I've been a mentor to a young woman who has been in prison. As of Tuesday, she is finally out of prison! I picked her up and she stayed at my house on Tuesday night. Then Wednesday, I took her to the place where she is staying for now, which is a transitional house for women coming out of prison. It went amazingly well! When she first saw them she asked her son, R.J., the oldest, "Do you know who I am? I wasn't g...

Donna's Booknook: May 2011
http://donnasbooknook.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 22, 2011. I was headed East, and I noticed that my long full-body shadow was straight out in front of me. I don't know why that caught my attention. On my way back home, I happened to glance behind me, and sure enough, that shadow was straight out behind me. My Shadow (by Robert Louis Stevenson). I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,. And what can be the use of him is more than I can see. He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;. But my lazy little shadow, like a...
