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.
Accutane Lawsuit
Posted by clare3
It is bad enough to suffer the pains of acne but then to take a product that is supposed to heal you and have it turn your body against you with serious side effects, that is just too much. That is why it is important to find out if your symptoms are caused by Accutane. By checking the Internet you can find answers to your questions and you will be able to tell if you have an Accutane Lawsuit. By filling in some information, you can get more information yourself from experienced lawyers who are very experienced in helping people like yourself. You can get a free consultation if you wish. They have very professional consultants available to discuss the matter with you. Labels: Accutane lawsuit, Free consultation
New Years Celebrations
Posted by clare3
What are you doing for New Years? Many will go out and party and get drunk and won't remember what they did. We will have a quiet New Years at home, watching fireworks on television and special programming. We will probably share some chips and dips and pop and go to bed before midnight because we can't seem to stay awake that long anymore. There was a time one year when all the kids came and we all tried to stay up all night. I made it to 2 or 3 a. m. if I remember right and some of the kids made it to 4 but few stayed up all night. It was a lot of fun though. Labels: Family, New Years Celebrations
Family Fun
Posted by clare3
Had a great time Sunday with all the family. Celebrating Christmas the day after with lots of good food. Fun with the little great grandkids. Kids just make Christmas. The adults played a game of choosing gifts and then changing them if they wanted to with someone else. I got a beautiful votive set. There was fun for all and plenty to eat. It got foggy and a few snow flurries but it was a good day.
Regency Beauty Institute
Posted by clare3
If you are planning on going into a career in cosmetology, then you are excited to find the right school to attend. With their fine reputation of over 50 years, I feel you would be happy if you checked into Regency Beauty Institute. They not only have 80 campuses in 19 states but they are continuing to grow and that is because they are such a fine professional school. Regency salons are everywhere and it is a pleasure to visit one of them. We have several in our area that provide wonderful beauty care. Wouldn't it be fun to be on a cruise ship or doing the makeup for models on a runway? How exciting would that be? I think it would be just great knowing they have a placement service like this.

Home Audio Speakers
Posted by clare3
Sitting in your den, living room or even lying in bed, there is nothing like having a good home theater system to enhance your enjoyment of the programs, movies or whatever you choose to watch. You can fit home audio speakers to any size room in your house. And not only that, but you can build it yourself with a little help. I have been in homes where they have installed such systems and it bring such an audio experience to everything you watch and listen to. Check out their ultimate system and save as much as $300. I checked out the smaller size for our den and was surprised at its low cost. Labels: home audio speakers
Opiate Detox
Posted by clare3
An opiate detox requires a specialized treatment for each person. No two people are the same and and each person needs to be sure they are going to the right detox center for them. In checking out Malibu Horizon, I found they have a special team. They have been selected because they are experienced, caring people and can identify the root cause of each person's problem. Because each person gets such individualized treatment, they have a very effective treatment that will help them detox and get on with their lives in a much more meaningful way. They look for underlying causes of the person's problems and clear those up as well as ridding them of alcohol or drug dependency. Labels: Opiate Detox
Scooping Snow
Posted by clare3
Here we are scooping or shoveling snow again. It seems like an endless job this year. I think this is going to be one of those winters you are going to give your shovel and snow blower a good work out. I guess we were lucky awhile back. I remember one winter we only used the snow blower once and another winter we used it twice and here it is not even the end of December and we have used it twice already. Gotta keep the gas cans full. Labels: scooping snow, shovel, snow blower
Facebook Photos
Posted by clare3
It is so neat to see photos of your newest great granddaughter on Facebook. Even though they are miles away, you get to see them shortly after they are born. She is a cute little gal and I think she looks a lot like her Mom but it is really hard to tell as they change so quickly. She has such dark eyes she looks like she could have brown eyes. I always thought most babies were born with blue eyes and then they change but hers look so dark already. She will be a cutie.
Buy Gold Bullion
Posted by clare3
Everyone likes to know what the future is going to bring. Some even call the those hot lines where people tell you your future. I feel that is a big waste of money. What they need to do to know the future is to buy gold bullion. If they do that they will have put their money into something that is safe and secure and has always kept its value. Not only that but it grows in value and your future is going to be much brighter if you have planned ahead and purchased something that is going to preserve your wealth. You may find yourself in a Florida condo and out on the golf course before you know it and if you have invested in gold, you will have the money to do that. Whatever the future brings it will be brighter if you make a safe investment now. Labels: buy gold bullion, safe investment, your future wealth
Sunshine
Posted by clare3
We have actually had two sunny days in a row. I had almost forgotten what it looked like. When the sun is out it doesn't really matter how cold it is. It just makes you feel better to see the sunshine and you can feel the warmth of it through the windows. If you go for a ride, the sun coming in the window is actually quite warm even though it may be zero outside. It was good to have a day without snow too.
Davidoff
Posted by clare3
I'm not much of a cigar smoker but I know that those that are really like a fine cigar. They won't smoke just any old cigar, they want one with fine mellow tobacco in them. When a cigar smoker sits down to enjoy his cigar, he wants a luxurious davidoff cigar because he can sit back and relax and truly enjoy the flavor and aroma of the finest of cigars. My father-in-law always enjoyed a good cigar and he would just love to have some of these to enjoy. My husband also enjoys a good cigar now and then but it needs to be a good one.

iPhone
Posted by clare3
It is not too late to get you or your loved one a new iphone? The best part is that if you hurry and order by December 21, you can have it in time for Christmas. What are you waiting for? Check out the Internet and see the great choices you have and prices in everyone's price range. I admit I was surprised at how reasonable they are. You can afford to get both you and your significant other each a new phone. Isn't it time you upgraded from your old phones and moved on up to your choice of iPhones.
Low Car Insurance
Posted by clare3
We just got a $93 raise in our car insurance and they said it was because the State made the increase. I do not know if that is true or not but I think it is time to find cheap car insurance. I know that the best car insurance rates can be found on the Internet and I am going to check it out. Sure enough, I checked at http://www.affordableautoinsurancesite.com/ and I found it was easy to get a free auto insurance quote. I know that I can choose one that will save us a great deal of money. That will sure help out our budget.

Tire Chains
Posted by clare3
My cousin drives semi and he goes to the states where they have plenty of snow. South Dakota is well known for its snowfall and tricky roads. When you are out on a road like this you need to depend on your tire chains. It is not an easy job putting on tire chains when it is so cold and the snow is so deep but if you are looking for the easiest, you can get EasyToGo tire chains it will save you a great deal of time and effort getting your tire chains put on. Many people who just go out for the weekend and play around in the snow, they may want to get some good Grip 4x4. But the one thing you want to remember is that when you buy tire chains be sure to try them in advance of your need to use them. Be sure they are going to fit and will work best for you and do the best job. You don't want to get stuck and then try to get your tire chains on and not have them work for you.

Soup Weather
Posted by clare3
This is good soup weather. It has been way below zero for a long time and the wind chills are much worse than that. That is when you start thinking seriously about a good bowl of hot soup. There is nothing quite like your own homemade soup. Everyone has different tastes and we enjoy a good bowl of whole pea soup, rice soup or chili. You look forward to meals when you have some good soup to enjoy. Labels: homemade soup, whole pea soup
Buy Gold Coins
Posted by clare3
Would you believe that it never occurred to me to buy gold coins as an investment. I had never heard anything about it until I saw it on an ad on television. I found out you can contact the U.S. Gold Bureau directly and they will assist you in making purchases of gold coins. I also discovered that gold is one of the very most safe investments you can make because it has never lost value and generally continues to gain in value. It is a wonderful way to preserve your wealth for the future and that is something everyone should be thinking about. Time passes so quickly that retirement sneaks up on you and you want to be prepared to keep the same or better standard of living that you have now. Labels: buy gold coins, U.S. Gold Bureau
Cooking with Mom
Posted by clare3
Now here are two little great grandsons busily helping ? Mom cook. I love their expressions as they look more like they got caught with their hands in the cookie jar. Their Mom has a very unique talent for making the most beautiful, interesting and unique cookies I have ever seen. She has a business online in which she sells cookies, cakes, cupcakes and more. I do not know how she has the patience to do all that decorating. It is a real talent. Labels: cookies, Cooking with Mom
Snow Removal
Posted by clare3
And the snow came and the winds blew and the drifts piled up on the farm. What were we to do? With great neighbors coming to the rescue, they had the snow cleared off the long driveway in no time. The neighbors across the street had much bigger huge drifts than our grandkids did here on their acreage. Their little children will really get their chance to play in the snow but right now it is too bitterly cold for anyone to be out for long. Labels: clearing the snow, snow drifts
Buy Gold Bullion
Posted by clare3
What have you done to plan for your future? Have you made some investments that did not quite pan out the way you would have liked them to? Well, I was told on an advertisement on television that I should buy gold bullion because it was one thing that has never lost its value. Now that is saying quite a bit. You can't say that about many investments, can you? But gold has not only kept its value but it has grown in value. The Romans, Egyptians and Greeks knew what they were doing when they sought out gold as an investment. They knew it would preserve their wealth for all time. Not only is it a safe investment but gold is also beautiful and people love anything made of gold. It is something to be desired for all time.
Grandpa Having Fun
Posted by clare3
Now doesn't this look just like lots of fun? I don't know who is having the most fun, Grandpa or his grandson. This was taken while the weather was still warm. Now it is bitterly cold and the lawn mower is put away for the winter but I bet there will be more fun on it next summer. There will be plenty of mowing to do on the acreage. There is plenty of room for the kids to run too and they have a new tire swing to play on. Labels: grandchild, Grandpa having fun
Walking to His First Christmas Tree
Posted by clare3
This is not his first Christmas but it is the first one that he is big enough to walk over to and touch the ornaments and see the wonder of a beautiful Christmas tree with his big sister. It is so much fun to see the wonder in the eyes of a child. I think children really make Christmas. I know Jesus is the reason for the Season but children bring so much joy to a home at Christmas. Everything is new and exciting for them. If we could only be like little children and be as free to enjoy Christmas as they do. As Moms, there is so much shopping, wrapping gifts, decorating the tree, baking goodies that there just isn't enough time to just sit and soak in the beauty and joy of Christmas.

Buy Gold
Posted by clare3
My husband and I were sitting around the table discussing the future. We decided we had better make some investments because retirement sneaks up on you before you know it and you want to be prepared. You would like to live at least at the same standard of living that you have today. And then we heard a gentleman on television telling us we should buy gold. Now that was one thing we had not even thought of. I guess living out in the sticks, we had not heard that gold was such a great investment. We had not heard that it keeps its value and grows in value and has never lost value. Now that is exactly what we need and we found out we could contact the U.S. Gold Bureau directly and make purchasing arrangements and also arrangements for a safe depository for our gold.

Web Directory List
Posted by clare3
You know that we all want to improve our search engine rankings, but if you are like me, you do not really know how to go about it. Sure, I have tried various things but to no avail. What I needed was a web directory list. With the right tool, I could raise my ranking exponentially. However, I know there are some unscrupulous people who will do things illegally to try and improve your rankings and you surely do not want any part of that. So by checking the Internet, I found an honest website that is not only great, but free too. You can check out what other people are saying about this way of reaching directories and raising your search engine rankings. It is amazing to me the way this SEO software works.

Christmas Fun
Posted by clare3
Tomorrow they are having a Christmas Brunch at one of the churches here in town. My next door neighbor goes there and she has invited me to go along with her. She will pick me up so that is great too. I just hope the weather cooperates as we are supposed to have a blizzard all day tomorrow. There are supposed to be high winds and 2-5 inches of snow. It is here in town so maybe the snow won't keep us from going. If it was out of town, it would be out of the question as they say visibilities will be down to zero most of the time.

LCD Projectors

You want to find the right one for you, especially if you travel a great deal. And of course, the right prices are very helpful in choosing the projector you need.

December is Birthday Month
Posted by clare3
It has been quite a month so far. On Dec 3, one of our great grandsons turned 2, then our own twin girls had their birthday on Dec. 4. Sunday another little great grandson turned 1 on Dec 5. Another great grandson will turn 1 on Dec. 17. Last night we got a phone call and a birthday party was being held for him this coming Saturday night. Now we are also waiting to hear of the arrival of yet another great granddaughter who is due Dec. ll.
November also was a birthday month also. Our little great granddaughter turned 3 on Nov. 3 and little great grandson turned 3 on Nov. 13. Then our son had his birthday on Nov. 23 and celebrated it along with another little great grandson who turned 1 year old that day. It all makes for a lot of cakes and candles and fun.
Honda Snowblower
Posted by clare3
It is just about that time of the year again. My husband just said this morning that he should get the snowblower out and see if he can get it started. He had some problems last year and fought with the snowblower till he got it working. I suggested he look on the Internet at a honda snowblower. They have an outstanding reputation for being a very good snowblower and in our State we get an abundance of snow. They have all sizes of snowblowers and also have some good sale prices. You can find out their sale prices by calling their toll-free phone number. I think it is a good idea to prepare now before the first big snow fall and then we will wish we had done it sooner.

Moen Kitchen Faucets
Posted by clare3
When redecorating your home, you generally start in the kitchen as this is the room in which most of the family spend the most time. You want a good looking and functional kitchen. Therefore, the first place you look is at your sink. In changing faucets, I got on the Internet and checked out Moen kitchen faucets. They have a wonderful selection of many styles of faucets and there is bound to be one or more that are just right for your kitchen. The pull-out spray faucets would certainly update my kitchen and I bet you would like those too. There are many choices for everyone. Labels: good looking faucets, Moen kitchen faucets, stylish
