So I must say I was very sad today. I was supposed to be on a fun day with the hubby to see a play
with our church group but NO I have to wake up feeling really BAD and not feeling up to going on
a 2hr car ride and sitting all day.. So I called my dear sister n Law and she gave me a hair trim.
She could only stay 1hr so hear I am on the computer.. So hear I am and YES I am doing 2 blogs
in one day while they are fresh in my mind..
I started watching YouTube in hopes of learning some ways to do Christmas projects for this year of socks or mittens.. But I didn't get to far with that and just started looking around.. Now I am just addicted to going on and looking at video's.. I do this when I am home alone and just don't feel like
I can do to much for various reasons with pains in my body lately. So I must tell ya what I have found:
1. Music video's from Christian groups and from along time ago
2. Funny Cat/Dog video's doing things people would
3. Lots of make up Gurus..(that's what they like to call people who LOVE make up)
4. Painting techniques (I have not tired yet but sure relaxes me)
5. Really cute kids singing
6. Gadgets
7. Storage ideas
8. Cleaning techniques
9. Nail growth videos (totally obsessed with growing my nails)
10. whats in my purse videos ( I know its so dumb but its just weird)
So that's my day! I really need to expand more in learning to do links on here..

Favorite Things of Libriary
So as my friends know I love books.. It used to be such a joy for me to go to used book stores or even
at garage sales to find books.. But as I quickly filled up my book case and found less and less storage
and people complaining I had to many books as also the cost.. So I now go to the library more..
This week I just was thinking why I LOVE the library..
1.They have the reader
2. They recycle batteries
3. They have notice board of lectures coming up
4. Computers
5. Book clubs
6. Museum tickets
7. Magazines
8. Job Listing posts
9. Buy used books
10. Have large print
So that's today's list of my favorites... Did I forget anything???
Any other new things at the Library please let me know!

Wow lots of B-days
I love to celebrate B-days and remember my family and friends.. I do believe each life is a gift from God and has a special purpose and gift to share! Its amazing how February has grown to be a month of me having so
many birthdays.. My brother and Step dad both have birthdays. (11th and 13th) Also my brother N law.and nephew. And then I have 4 other people I know close to me that I have grown to LOVE.. So needless to
say in my time of having NO money I have become very creative in my giving of gifts!
But somehow in my love of lists for the people that have mile stones I start and write them things that I admire or know about the years that I have shared with them.. When my hubby turned 50 I did 50 things I LOVE about My Hubby. But NOW my brother is 40 and my step dad is 70... And also two days apart!! UGGG... so my brothers was not that bad and I had plenty to make fun of.. LOL Just kidding.. NOT really..LOL
But with my step dad 70 things was allot! I got up to 47 things and then asked for help from mom.. It was a fun project to do and mom was getting a kick out of it. But we shall see if I get it done..
I found this quote and It really gave me something to think about!

The Blizzard of 2011
I sure felt like a kid again! It was a snow day I looked forward to! I was so excited except the thought of
maybe losing electricity! It was so much fun to watch the hubby run from window to window and the
cats following him behind.. I sure wish I had a video of it! The surprise to me was also the thundering
we had while snow coming down.. It was so amazing..
New things I saw was snow melting machines they now have to melt the snow and how the police used snowmobiles.. It was also amazing to see how more of those yellow caged things to move the snow.
I was also glad to see how people really pulled together and helped their neighbors get out of spaces and
even shoveling for each other.. It was good to see people can still show kindness..
So I my love of lists I started thinking IF We did lose Electricity what would I do... So in planning for the event I started a list I was planning to go to 100 but I got to 65 so far but here is the TOP 10:
1. Call family make sure OK.
2. Light the Candles and Have the Flashlights
3. Take pic of the snow
4. Eat comfort foods
5. Update your grateful list
6. Journal your feeling about storm
7. Make the cats chase the flashlight for some laughs
8. Take a relaxing bath with candles (if not dangerous conditions)
9. Take a Nap
10. Tell some jokes or comforting stories to stay in a good mood...
A verse of Encouragement and Comfort
Psalm 3:3-6
But You, O LORD, are a shield for me, My glory and the One who lifts up my head. I cried to the LORD with my voice, And He heard me from His holy hill. I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the LORD sustained me. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people. Who have set themselves against me all around.
