One Neat Product...
I found this one neat product line that I think you would like. It is the Power Nap Machine.
Click on the box to check it out. Right now they have a limited time free US shipping offer!
I am seriously thinking about getting one. I know of others who have used it and say that it is great. I would love to hear from some of you who have used it. It is neat to find products that assist in a good quality sleep.
Wonderful Trip...
How about chatting over a nice cup of coffee? I haven't mentioned it, but we had a wonderful trip to Amish country in Ohio. We drove miles through the country looking at crops, gardens and the flowers. We also stopped in Kidron to visit Lehman's Hardware Store plus several shops.
We ate at some of the areas best places. It was a nice easy going trip over the Memorial Weekend. If you go check out the many different resturants... it is nice to try something new and it gives those merchants a chance to service new customers.
We usually stop by Heini's, but there were so many people in line that we didn't go into the cheese shop. We did get one of their great tasting ice cream cones. We will try to go to the store the next time we go.
I really don't like to travel over holidays anymore, but my husband won me over. I like it when there are less vacationers, less traffic and more time to casually shop. I guess we all have our preferences. It was a nice get-a-way for us!

The Year Is Half Over...
I can't believe that I'm saying this already, "The year is half over!" How time flies. So much has happened this year with all the economic unrest, unemployment and natural disasters. We never know what a day holds.
I'm ready for some good news!
Right now my good news is that I'm getting my garden in. Most of it has been planted, but we have had to deal with more rain than usual. I don't mind, hopefully, it will last through the summer. It is a little later than usual so that means cooler harvest times. I can handle that. It's great to can and freeze produce when it's cooler.

Lillian Vernon Catalog...
I was looking over the Lillian Vernon catalog that I posted about a few days ago. There are some pretty neat things in there esp. in the kitchen and laundry areas. For some reason, I always look in those sections for what's new and available. I guess that's because laundry and meal preparation are always with us. I like anything that makes work easier, frees up time or saves money.
We still have our rains so I've still got a little time to work on other chores that need to get done. As soon as it's nice again, my daughter and I need to finish planting the garden. I did manage to get tomato plants in Saturday before it started raining.
The corn and onions are up nice. The carrots aren't through yet. Hopefully, they will be through soon. i used a planting strip for them. It's just getting exciting out there.

Family Times...
Yesterday, we had a family dinner. Everyone gathered in after church family. It is so much fun to be with family. It is about as much fun putting it all together as sitting down and eating at the table. We have a large family and everyone brings food into share. They put the finishing touches on when they get here, so most of the adults were standing and working around in the kitchen. Some holding the babies or talking to the little children. We told telling stories, jokes and shared all kinds of advice and thoughts. It was just a fun time. Of course, the meal might not have been as quick as possible, but most don't seem to care.
After we cleaned up, we walked in the garden. We looked at the vegetables that were up and discussed the flowers. Each of us shared our own thoughts and plans for our gardens this year.
Last night, my husband and I sat by a campfire on our little island by the pond. Just two little old people on an island by themselves watching the fire and enjoying being together after a big day.

"Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread., and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen"
Considering Your Wealth...
Grab yourself a cup of coffee and let's chat a little...
I think we're all a little concerned about the economy especially since it involves us all. We're in this together. We all want to see those around us be able to work and feed, clothe and house their families.
We all know that taxes and expenses are way to high. We manage. We go on. We also learn from past experiences, history as well as the present. We know that we can't overspend and that we need to cutback until times are better. Right now, if possible, is a pretty much stay as you are situation.
We buy what we need and some of what we want, but not as much. We are learning, we are trimming down and we will make it. That's why I thought I'd share this little saying that I ran across today with you.

"In prosperity do not rejoice too much
and in adversity be not downcast."
-Seneca
God is always there for us in the good and the bad times. Be happy in the good times and don't take them for granted and remember in the bad times that things can be better. Sometimes, we can make adjustments to make things better. Life always has good times and bad... we can learn from both.
Have a great day!
Arm Chair Shopping...
I ran across this today and thought that I'd share it with you. I always like free shipping. Lillian Vernon is offering free shipping with a $50 or more purchase. I really like online shopping because it sames me gas, searching for what I want and lots of needed time for other things.
They always have some different and fun things to buy.

Getting The Flower Gardens In Shape...
I've been busy working and getting the flower gardens in shape. I've been week whacking and pulling weeds. Mostly weed whacking since I cut my hand. I'm so pleased. It has been so windy that I haven't been able to use Roundup. I don't like to use chemicals, but I've had an over abundance of weeds.
It is so neat to see the flowers growing and blooming. The iris are really beautiful right now as well as the roses.
Hopefully, I'll have them in great shape before I get back to the vegetable garden. I really need to plant more vegetables, but the rain has just kept right on coming.
Have a great gardening day!

Good Friday...
"For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16
The Passion film clips are so vivid but true. The song is the Via Dolorosa. May this touch your heart as it has touched so many.
Blessings to you this Good Friday!
Check This Out For Real American Spirit...
Sarah Palin will host Real American Stories on April 4, 2010 on the Fox News Channel. I watched this video clip and love it. It is so nice to see real American every day people who have overcome. How refreshing it is.

An Explanation...
If an explanation is in order... here it is. I always did love Johnny Cash's voice. It was a nice clear bass. I will probably share a few of his songs when they seem appropriate. He did make a turn around towards the end of his life. I think his & June's trip to the Holy Land affected them a lot.
Here's hoping you enjoy the songs that I share.
I Love Books...
I love books and I am always looking for books to add to my library. No, I don't read all of them from cover to cover because some of them are reference as well as how-to and cook books.
I found this site that has some out of print books. I know how frustrating it is to look and look for an out of print book. Anyway, it's a neat site. I just thought I'd share the site with you.

The Groundhog Saw His Shadow...
Great News... the groundhog saw his shadow this morning! Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow and we can now officially say, "we have six more weeks of winter." It is nice to have something official like this to count on. lol!
Where I live here in Ohio, the ground is covered in snow, so, I'm liking it real well. If it's going to be winter... let it snow!
Got Coffee?...
Got coffee and garden catalogs. I'm having a wonderful time looking over what is possible for my new and upcoming garden year. We are so blessed in America to be able to grow such an abundance of different vegetables, fruits, trees and flowers. Of course, we don't have time, space or money to do it all, but it sure is fun to look at and plan what we can do.
