My friend Barbara
This was written by my dear friend.
I am grateful for her friendship.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY TO SHOW
HOW MUCH YOU REALLY CARE,
FOR THE GIFT THAT JESUS GAVE US ALL,
HIS LIFE ON EARTH TO SHARE.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY TO BE
LIKE HIM IN EVERY WAY,
DOING WHAT HE WOULD WANT YOU TO DO
IN ALL YOU DO AND SAY.
WHAT ARE YOU SHARING WITH THOSE YOU MEET,
AS YOU GO THROUGH YOUR DAY.
ARE YOU GIVING A HAND TO LIFT THEM UP
AND HELP THEM ON THEIR WAY.
WHAT ARE YOU GIVING TO THOSE IN NEED
WHO HAVE MUCH LESS THAN YOU.
DO YHOU GIVE OF YOURSELF, YOUR TIME, YOUR MEANS,
LIKE JESUS WOULD HAVE YOU DO.
WHAT WOULD HE SAY IF HE WERE HERE
STANDING BY YOUR SIDE,
WATCHING ALL YOU DO FOR THOSE IN NEED
IN THIS WORLD SO WIDE.
AN INVENTORY OF DEEDS IS TAKEN EACH DAY
LOVING ACTS BOTH GREAT AND SMALL,
NOT ONE THING WILL BE LEFT OUT,
HE WILL RECORD THEM ALL.
FOR EVERY TIME WE HELP SOMEONE IN NEED,
OR LIFT A WEARIED SOUL,
WE ADD ANOTHER ACT OF LOVE
THAT WE SHOW HERE BELOW.
SO ASK YOURSELF "AM I LIKE HIM
WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE.
DID I SHOW KINDNESS AND LOVE
TO HIS CHILDREN, EVERYONE."
REMEMBER HE IS WATCHING YOU,
EACH AND EVERY DAY
KEEPING TABS ON WHAT WE DO
FOR OTHERS DAY TO DAY.
I WOULD HOPE THAT WHEN WE LEAVE THIS LIFE
AND RETURN TO HIM ABOVE
THAT HE WOULD SAY "JOB WELL DONE
BECAUSE YOU SHOWED ME LOVE."

wonderful words
THIS IS SO AWESOME....READ IT EVERY WEEK!!!
Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The
Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio
"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:"
1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what the their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
17.. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.
24. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
25. Frame every so-called disaster with these words ''In five years, will this matter?".
26. Always choose life.
27. Forgive everyone everything.
28. What other people think of you is none of your business.
29. Time heals almost everything. Give time, time.
30. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
31. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
32. Believe in miracles.
33. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
34. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
35. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.
36. Your children get only one childhood.
37. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
38. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
39. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
40. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
41. The best is yet to come.
42. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
43. Yield.
44. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.
45. Remember that I will always share my spoon with you! Friends are the family that we choose for ourselves

So Funny that this came to me today and it did hit me like a ton of bricks.
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person..
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support,
to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend and they are.
They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on. Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.
They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.
They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it, it is real. But only for a season. LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons,
things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson,
love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Changes are coming
We have had the website for almost 2 years now and making this change is not easy for me. I am not one that like to give up on things. But the reality is that we would rather put our funds into supplies rather than to maintain the website. So as of Sept 12th we will be posting and selling from here.

Garnet January Birthstone
This bracelet can be found at www.totaldelights.com it is made with Garnets and freshwater pearls, sterling silver
January Birthstone : Garnet
Birthstone Color: Deep Red
One glance at the deep red seeds nestled inside of a pomegranate fruit explains why the word “garnet” comes from the Latin word “granatus,” meaning “grain” or “seed.” This name was given to the garnet because of its close resemblance to the succulent pomegranate seed. But don’t bite into a garnet, because at Moh’s hardness 6.5 to 7.5, it will definitely damage the teeth!
There are many myths and legends surrounding the garnet. One Biblical legend is that Noah hung this gem on the ark to light his way through the dark and stormy nights of God’s wrath. A Greek myth linked to the garnet is the story of the young goddess of sunshine, Persephone, who was abducted by Hades, god of the underworld. Hades eventually released Persephone, but not before he offered her some pomegranate seeds, which guaranteed her return to him.
First mined in Sri Lanka over 2,500 years ago, the garnet is also found in Africa, Australia, India, Russia, South America; and in the United States, in Arizona and Idaho. Although most commonly known as a red gemstone, the garnet comes in a variety of other hues, including muted yellows, vibrant oranges, rosy pinks, lime greens, and violets—a virtual bouquet of colors. This diversity is due to unique combinations of elements within each particular gem, such as iron, calcium, and manganese.
Archaeologist findings of primitive style garnet jewelry among the graves of lake dwellers dates the early use of this gemstone to the Bronze age. But not all garnet is of gem quality. It is also a very effective abrasive and is used commercially for grinding and polishing. Garnet coated sandpaper is one such industrial use.
The garnet continues to be the protective gem of journeyers. A gift of garnet is thought to be symbolic of love and the desire for a loved one’s safe travel and speedy homecoming. It is January’s birthstone, but far from being only a winter gem, the garnet, with its brilliance and multitude of colors, is truly one for any season.
