Joy,
The one that spoke deeply to my heart is #19....SECOND CHANCES!
Love ya,
Yolanda
This is so cool! I love it! THanks for all of the wonderful "S" things!! I'm going to hop over to her blog and check this out!
I want to hear you sing the next time we get together!! I can't carry a tune in a bucket, and I so love to hear others praising God in song! I do make a Joyful "noise" to HIm!! I'm so glad that He loves me just the way I am!!
Love you!
Susan
Oh Joy! I am laughing out loud! Ooohh - Just finished a dark orange chocolate bar my hubby gave me for Christmas! mmmm.
And I think I might want to go back and add an addendum to my post...10 things that I don't love! What a great idea! I should have given you R for Rebel! LOL
Love, Liz
These are all great! I started to list the #'s of the ones I agreed with, but there were just too many. I definitely love chocolate, though! :o)
One "S" I love...
SLEEP!
One "S" I don't love...
sleepless nights.
I know. Not very creative.

Hey..you forgot...Sita (-;!!!
What a fun letter game! :) And I happen to love "S". :)
Thanks for your comment and quotes in my blog post! I love the quotes and will read them again! :)
You and I will have to go stationery shopping together...perhaps the next time we both attend She Speaks at the same time!
Hugs and lots of letters,
Sharon
Loved your list! Like Yolanda, #19 leaps off that list for me (though there are many loves and unloves which we share) = )
Thank you so much your kind words and for "S"haring in our "Joy" about the proposal/engagement. = ) We feel so very blessed.
Joy,
Loved this post.
Enjoy your Ladies day. Can't wait to hear what you learned.
Zoe
You are one of my favorite writers.. I follow you around the blogging community. Believe me when I say you have great writing ability, loads of wisdom, and always leaving us with things to ponder... thank you..... Sweet blessings to you. kathy
this was a fun writing and I am a dark chocolate/orange type of gal...
Wow...you did go above and beyond. Shall we say you are a lover of many S's?
I hate that box thing also...we shouldn't put God in a box and I don't think we should put ourselves in one either.
Joy, this is a keeper!
Might I just add a couple that came to my mind as I read??
Surrendered Sisters!!!
Sweet Tea!
Just couldn't help myself :0)
Have a blessed week friend!
pat
Joy...I loved reading about the things you like and the ones you dislike! Makes me feel I know you better! Especially liked the fact that you took time to mention us "Siestas 'across the border'"! :)
God bless ya!
Marilyn
What a fun game!
How did your event go?
It is good to be back to bloggy world!
Have an awesome day!
Love you,
Cheri
I love how you added the things you DON'T like. I'm right there with you on SPIDERS (lots of large spidies down here in Florida...aaacck!!) and also the sarcasm. Actually, I agree with you on most all of them. Guess we have lots in common!
Have a blessed week.
You are just the sweetest thing ever and this list just proves it! =)
ps- I thought that was really cool that the Lord spoke to you as well about this "Not Yet" concept! God is just so awesome!
Love the list of what you love. Like Marilyn said, it makes me feel like I know you better. I love you friend. Your writing always encourages my heart - even a list!!
Thanks for your friendship and prayers. I treasure you!
Renee
This proves it! Surely we are kindred sisters!!
