About Me
We have 4 married children and we all have born again Christian homes, for which I am very thankful. We are delighted to see this passed down from generation to generation. I am a people person and love visiting, and helping them too, in any way I can. I love a good cup of hot tea with friends, neighbors, or family. And now blogging has become my latest passion, many thanks to a wonderful grandson. May you all find the joy, peace and happiness in our Lord Jesus Christ that I have found.
Happy 2nd Birthday
Posted by clare3
Labels: Family, great grandchildren, Holidays
November 1, our little great grandaughter, Kaelyn, will be 2 years old. She is patiently waiting for a new little brother or sister who will arrive in about 4 weeks. She is excited to be a big sister. I remember when our oldest daughter turned 2 and her little brother was born about 2 weeks later. She was so happy and proud to sit on the couch and hold him on her lap. It brings back a lot of memories. Here is a picture of Kaelyn and her first cousin, Emry who will be 2 on November 13 and will get a new little brother in December. It is exciting. All this is happening right along with the Holidays.
Business Gifts
Posted by clare3
Probably the hardest gifts to buy are business gifts. There are so many different policies among companies, that it is hard to know what to give. However, a gift to charity is always a good choice. Everyone is happy to give to a good charity. You can obtain cards for every occasion to give a gift that will be appreciated and do good at the same time. There are over 100 nationally recognized charities so that makes it easy. You can get them in various denominations, but I think one of the great parts is that when you buy them, they are tax deductible right away.
Wrinkle Cream
Posted by clare3
Oh my, I looked in the mirror this morning and I have turned into my grandmother. My face is a mass of wrinkles and those under my eyes are the worst. Besides I have had dark circles under my eyes for some time now and I wonder if a wrinkle cream will really work to fix these problems. I think I need some good advice from people who have checked it out. I have heard most creams won't help those under your eyes. I am going to check the Internet and see if that is true and if there is help out there for me. Labels: eye creams, remove wrinkles
Tile Flooring
Posted by clare3
Well I just looked around at our tile flooring and it certainly has seen better days. A new tile and a new color would work wonders to improve those rooms. There are so many kinds now to choose from and also a great many colors. With the Fall sales going on, this is probably the best time for us to get with it, and change the tiles and brighten up our home. There are lots of specials and discounts and I am going to get on the Internet and check it out. Labels: Internet, tile flooring
Motorhome Towing
Posted by clare3
Oh the life of leisure, traveling about the country in your own motorhome. Enjoying all the scenery and companionship of other fellow travelers. However, when something breaks down, you need to be ready for motorhome towing and it can really be expensive. Before you hit the road, it is best to be sure you have signed up for some 24 hour emergency road service so your trips won't be spoiled. Are you prepared? Did you know it can sometimes cost as much as $200? Theft insurance is also a good idea, it seems to me. Labels: Internet, motorhome towing
Discount Cigar
Posted by clare3
To a cigar smoker, there is nothing quite like a really good cigar. And even better yet, is getting a good discount cigar. You can browse a catalog and find all the good deals. Some offer 10%, 20%, 30% depending on what and how many you buy. You can even find free shipping by searching for it. Do you like auctions, how about bidding with a cigar auctioneer. Doesn't that sound like fun? There are plenty of great deals and buys on best cigars without paying big prices for them. Labels: discount cigars, great prices, Internet
Pizza Night
Posted by clare3
Went to the Pizza ranch tonight. They will make any favorite pizza you want. We always have them make an apple or peach cactus bread for dessert. It is really good. Their broasted chicken is some of the very best around. When we came out there was a lot of excitement as all 4 fire engines were headed out. We wondered if it might be a combine/corn field fire. It will probably be on the 10 PM news. Labels: broasted chicken, Cooking, pizza
Baking Cookies
Posted by clare3
The kids next door are selling all kinds of stuff for the school. They are planning a trip to Washington D.C. for the 8th graders. So we have been buying frozen cookies, cookie dough, pies and chocolate covered peanuts. What will be next? Anyway, we got the oatmeal raisen frozen cookies Friday so I baked some and they are very good. I only bake one cookie sheet, 9 or 12 at a time so they are always fresh. They are so easy to bake anytime. Labels: cookies
Christmas Party Invitations
Posted by clare3
It won't be long and Christmas will be upon us. With Christmas, comes the many parties and Christmas party invitations. If you are planning a party this year, perhaps you have a theme in mind. If not, maybe you can use some good ideas. There are so many types of Christmas parties and a big variety of great invitations to match them. Now is the time to start thinking about it before you get too involved in shopping, wrapping gifts and baking. Labels: Christmas parties, invitations
6th Great Grandson
Posted by clare3
Labels: great grandchildren
Here is a picture of Great Grandson No. 6. He is a cute little dickens. He's all dressed up for Halloween. He's got the deepest dimples. He's 10 months old now and is walking already. These little ones are so much fun to watch them develop. He will probably be talking a blue streak too before we know it.
Funeral
Posted by clare3
My cousin's husband died yesterday in the middle of the afternoon at his job. He worked in an office and had a massive heart attack and was gone instantly. He was only 59 so it has been a terrible shock to the family. Fortunately, my cousin's brother and his wife were there visiting their new grandchild that was born last month. At least, his grandpa lived long enough to see him. But it is still very shocking to lose someone so young. He loved the Lord and I know he is with him now. We will see him again someday.
U S Gold Coins
Posted by clare3
The economy has hit everyone hard. Investments have shrunk so badly and everyone is in a panic. They tell us now is the time to buy us gold coins. Gold does not lose its value. It generally keeps on growing and becoming more and more valuable every day. With the dollar shrinking, gold is a safe, secure investment. This company has been in business over 30 years and are a leader in investing in precious metals. They now have a good supply of American Eagle gold coins. At a face value of $50, this may be something you would look into for investing. Labels: gold coins, Gold Investing
Grandson Marries
Posted by clare3
Our oldest grandson finally got married last month. They got married in Branson, Mo. They had a good time there with their family. They have purchased a home in a small town not too far from their jobs. His brother was his best man. He is planning to marry soon too. Labels: Family, grandchildren
Drug Rehab
Posted by clare3
Alcoholism or drug addition can take a terrible effect on families. Often, they just don't know where to turn to get help for their loved one. Sometimes, the loved one does not want help but the family knows that only drug rehab is the answer for the problem. It pays to check in ahead of time to find the best place to recover from these additions. A lot can depend on the finances of the family involved also. Labels: Drug abuse, Internet, rehab
When checking for substance abuse rehab centers the Internet is a great place to look. You can find plenty of help if you take a little time to check into it.
Acne Treatments
Posted by clare3
If you are suffering from acne, perhaps you have already tried many treatments that did not work. How do you find out which will work for you, which are safe and it is always good to have some customer recommendations to read to see how others feel about the various acne treatments. The Internet is a great informational tool to use to check out such treatments. Much information can be gotten this way. In addition, money is often saved because the products are much less than at a store. Labels: acne, treatments
Weightloss Supplements
Posted by clare3
I have tried dozens of weightloss supplements with all kinds of results. Mostly, they didn't help. What I needed was some expert advice on which were the best and how each one of them worked. Instead, I went to the store and bought what sounded best off the shelf, only to be disappointed time after time. It is best to check with someone who has researched many products and can tell you what each will do and if they are safe. Labels: weightloss
Malignant Mesothelioma
Posted by clare3
We have been hearing a great deal on television lately about malignant Mesothelioma. I never realized how serious asbestos exposure could be. My brother-in-law was exposed to it for a great many years but fortunately for him, he was not affected by it. Living with it has to be very hard and support and help for sufferers is very important, along with the proper treatment. Labels: Mesothelioma
Acne Treatment
Posted by clare3
I feel so bad for people who have acne. It has got to be tough to try and find the right acne treatment suited to your skin. Since there must be thousands of treatments available, which one would be best. By checking the Internet, you can find out how the many treatments work and which may be best for you. Safety and side effects would be tops on my list when looking for the right treatment. Labels: acne treatment
Myrtle Beach Resorts
Posted by clare3
We are having the worst cold, wet weather this Fall and I am ready for some nice warm weather. A vacation at myrtle beach resorts would be just the ticket to warm me up. It is easy to book a complete vacation, including the flight and a package to take in some amusement parks. Just lying on a warm sand beach sounds wonderful to me.
Truck Accessories
Posted by clare3
Everyone who has ever owned a truck has wanted it to look its very best. In order to stand out in the crowd, truck accessories really make the truck your own. Whether it is fancy grills, chrome strips or even just neat floor mats, it makes the truck unique to the owner. It is a lot of fun shopping for additional accessories to make a truck outstanding.

Business Plan Consultant
Posted by clare3
Starting a new business can be a very hard project. Often, we may turn to friends and family for advice but a business plan consultant may be the best way to get help. Of course, an experienced consultant is always tops on a list of those who could possibly help you most. I worked for a young man who was just starting up a business in our town and it was quite difficult. If he had good advice from the beginning, I am sure it would have been much easier.

Panama City
Posted by clare3
It is so cold and damp here right now, I am thinking of panama city with its most beautiful white sand beaches. The warm sunshine soaking into my body as I lie on the beach and watch the gentle waves moving in. Such beautiful blue water to swim in. Doesn't that sound delightful? Labels: Panama City, vacation, white sand beaches
And this is the place to book that vacation quickly and completely. Get hotel, flight and a vacation you won't forget. Wonderful restaurants await you and there is plenty of entertainment. Check into this website and see for yourself.
