Purple passion

I'm not a cleaning maven but I did get a neato Mother's Day gift.  It's the Rubba Sweepa from Flylady. Not only does it sweep really well, I used it today to get dust off the ceiling and mouldings!


Here's the link!

Just Venting

Why do people make simple things like answering phone messages a matter of stress and anxiety? 


We have quite the technology nowadays ya know.  A simple text message is a wonderful way to let people know that you hear their messages and will get back to them soon.  BUT NO.  Not even with email possibilities, certain people just leave you hanging after multiples messages and texts.


I think there should be telephone policemen to hunt down the people who don't call back after a certain number of messages.

Sunday, May 2, 2010


I am enjoying a quiet Sunday afternoon.  We'd had special meetings all week long, I didn't get to all of them because of work.  But I'm glad to have hubby doing up fries for supper. Pink Panther is on tv and up cuddled up with our little Miss.




I've found an awesome application for notes called Evernote. It's handy because I can use it on my iPhone and it syncs automatically. I'm trying to eliminate all my post its.


Thaé is doing so much better but with feeling better comes the desire to rip off his bandage. I've rebandaged him 3 times today.  I'm going to the vet tomorrow and get the dreaded cone to put around his neck.



I have the itch to sew.  I have to admit I haven't sewn much in the last few years. My super fabric guy that used to come to our Friday market doesn't come anymore so I don't have any close fabric stores that I like. I need to make business casual type outfits so I can wear them for conferences and presentations. Since I'm more mature now-ahem-I was thinking of abandoning black and red and going with grey instead. I can't abandon red.  That would be scandalous.

Nice day out even though not nearly sunny enough for me.

The Nose

2010 Sunday, April 25 I'm enjoying 5 minutes of quiet to write, which will end quickly because I just heard the car pull up. Just a few notes to jot down. I'm really enjoying my new MacBook. It's easy to use and now I have the mini DV to hook it up to the video projector for Reliv presentations. With the new computer and the prompting of my daughter Lydia, I installed Gotomeeting to facilitate presentations. I'm amazed I can so easily use this program. I'm still on the trial usage, so when payment time rolls around, we'll probably split it down the middle between us. It's a practical way to share my screen with up to 16 people. Working at home has it's perks now that I have a notebook. I'm usually comfortably installed on the couch now, rather at a desk. Thaé is my contant companion. We had a bit of a scare with him recently. He had a sort of growth on the side of his abdomen. The vet operated and found a huge tumor. I'm playing doggie nurse now, checking his drain and popping horse pills in his mouth twice a day. He's a very good patient. Just wondering if anyone has read, "Organizing for Your Brain Type",

Devotional Jan. 5


Jan 5 - You are Righteous

"...not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith."
(Philippians 3:9)

Dear Shelby,

I don't care how badly you may have messed things up yesterday or how many mistakes you have made, I want you to begin this day knowing you are righteous! Not because of anything you've done but because you've received, by faith in Jesus, the very righteousness of God.

Just look at the kinds of benefits the Word of God says that righteousness will bring:

"The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree" (Ps. 92:12).

"When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth" (Prov. 11:10).

"The seed of the righteous shall be delivered" (Prov. 11:21).

"For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers" (1 Pet. 3:12).

"For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield" (Ps. 5:12).

"The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles" (Ps. 34:17).

"I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread" (Ps. 37:25).

"The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein forever" (Ps. 37:29).

"The Lord loveth the righteous" (Ps. 146:8).

Don't let the devil rob you of even one of these blessings by telling you you're unworthy of them. Run him off. Shout out loud, "I am the righteousness of God!" Then step out in faith and enjoy the privileges God has prepared for you!
