sunshine....warmer temperatures...prepare...

The sunshine is very warm on our skin, I enjoy taking a sun nap, sometimes in a chair outdoors, always wear a good sunscreen when outdoors.....

The sun has many good things about it, it is necessary for everyone, and everything in our world....

Sun tans are always something I have when outdoors for a time....nice to have.

Flip -- flops are always nice to wear this time of year...many different styles and prices, dollar stores, Wal-Mart, target, shoe stores....

I enjoy the glittery, rhinestones, on those flip flop shoes, brands of those I like are, Yellow -- box, Corki's, and the very nice Sugar shoes, (nice as walking on a marshmallow !...lol) Crocs shoes are good also this time of year, wearing some today...help keep you cooler from terrible hot weather..

Shielding your eyes and face from hot weather is definitely needed !...my eyes hurt in sunshine, I adore sunglasses, many styles and different prices out there, purchase at Dollar stores, Wal-Mart, most convenience stores, have them, rhinestones, for the women, sporty or plain for guys !....most malls have sunglasses hut there to purchase from...

Shielding face from hot weather, and sun's rays is also necessary, baseball caps, floppy sun hats, and Sun visors placed onto head, --- all nice !....

Tank top shirts for women, are nice in dangerous hot weather, that will be here soon, need some not too revealing, with small straps, very respectful....men also wear the plain tank tops....shorts are nice for all, also, keep cooler...Wal-Mart may have many soon....affordable.

T  -- shirts are a favorite of mine, comfortable...less revealing, I enjoy them, all kinds of colorful hues, different glitters, rhinestone sets on them....pictures, even fun

Mini hand held circulating fans are also needed, takes a few batteries for power, hold into hand near face...water misting bottles are also good for spraying cool water onto hair for styling, or for spraying icy cold water onto face at outdoor hot weather events....water misting systems outdoors keep everyone cooler, but I don't know the prices....good to have those at rodeos in the stands !...

Umbrellas also help to keep cool, shield you from Sun 's rays, during very hot weather... set underneath umbrella..keep cooler...May place tables + chairs also underneath, business outdoors, near homes, everywhere...

Awnings are needed that are shaded, may roll back up at night, along side store buildings or even at your home !....all designs, and colorful hues...these are needed, in hot weather, and Sun always....yikes ! Hotter weather is on the way.

One item I love is the window blind, I have them !....needed I think for all homes, businesses windows...keep home interior cooler, shield Sun 's rays from home, helps to keep everyone cooler.....many styles, regular colors, all prices, styles...Wal-Mart is best affordable, simple to install follow instructions....May help with air conditioning bills...to keep cooler, lower bill some !....

place darker curtains over your Windows, interior of your home, I have a set of black out curtains to keep Sun from my rooms...it may be 113 degrees here sometimes, and if  air conditioning goes out it is sweltering, too hot ! Happens every year, old air conditioning system, but I keep cool best way I can afford to....

Bathing suits and swimming shorts are nice to have ready for swimming during summer....keep cooler...keep hair pulled back, bathe before going out to the swimming areas, or pools....very good to have beach towels ready also for summer...

one summer, Sun was blazing, air conditioning went out, I stayed in the hot pool to try and keep cool, didn't work, I still came down with a sinus infection / bronchitis...during that 117 degree week....it doesn't bother me too much, I have always lived in this climate...normal climate for me....too cold, areas, climate changes, I take ill...

I know that window tinting is nice for businesses, homes I know that helps keep cool....

Ceiling fans, and the oscillating, circulating, fans, portable to set onto table, or chair, keep you cooler ! We need to start those cooling fan drives, fundraisers to help those who need them soon....already getting ' hot out there now ! 

Prepare, purchase before that dangerous hot weather is here ! Yikes !..

oh, salads....

Salad is always a healthier meal, to have, it can be boring !....lol...so I always like to add many other items to a salad, and have it heaping full, that way, you have a meal with a salad....

I always have to have croutons, on salads...pre -- packaged, with garlic, and cheese, my favorite...place onto salad..

Cobb salads -- are nice with ham pieces, boiled egg slices, onion, radishes, cheese sprinkles, tomatoes, carrot shreds.

Chicken salads -- create at home, or I enjoy those from Taco Mayo, or Rib crib...very good !

Beef taco salads -- these are good also, create at home, or from any restaurant...Taco Bueno, taco bell, taco mayo....Taco Tico...

Braums has very good salads, also with fruit.

Creating salads at home for meals is nice during the hotter weather, simple.

Pre -- packaged salads are something I enjoy...spring mix is a favorite, many other vegetables with this, red cabbage, also..

Brands of these I enjoy:

--- dole
--- marketside
--- fresh exspress

These are nice, I always remove some from the package for creating a meal, then I pre - wash in a colander I have...always wash your vegetables ! Keep mix in refrigerator....

Plain lettuce, is also something I purchase, and shred, then place in a plastic container in refrigerator, always wash entire lettuce, then place in Ziploc plastic type sealed bags, keep cool in refrigerator ! Add other ingredients...build the salad, for meal.

Salad dressing is always good to me.

These I enjoy most, find at grocery stores, Wal-Mart, target, dollar stores....keep in refrigerator always.

Kraft - all

Wishbone
Ken's
Save a lot -- all

--- these are also nice to marinate chicken, beef in, place interior of plastic bag or container, secure, fill with half bottle of these dressings, let set overnight in refrigerator...then grill / bake / cook next day...seasons well...

Hidden valley ranch is nice for salads, in containers or the dry mix packets, you pour into bowl, mix with 1 cup mayonnaise, 1 cup of milk..stir well...very good with washed raw broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, radishes, cauliflower, those vegetable trays...refrigerate !

Keep mayonnaise cold, chilled always, can cause bacteria if not kept cold, so always remember that one !

re - use, recycle, donate....

I went right to sleep last night...I woke up this morning, well rested !...nice thunderstorm and rainfall helps with rest.....very nice...I feel better...

Many items along roads, could be cleaned up, recycled, no more messes lying around....seen those yesterday while driving....

I think recycling is always a good idea, I see many recyclable materials everywhere, still in good condition in many areas...building materials, old metal wrecked cars, scrap iron, fence material, old glass, old metal pipes, metal cans, old farm machinery, old rubble, recycle rubble for road and ditches along roads, near bridges....there are just many items outdoors lying left, old, can be re - used, recycled, for more use....

Anytime you have an item you are finished with, don't need any longer, or maybe the item reminds you of bad memories or upsets you, garage sale the item, donate to others to have and re - use....

Remember to always clean / wash, disinfect any item before you garage sale it, donate it, recycle, or give to another....

Home items, cookware, silverware, old jewelry, dinner wares, glass wares, furniture, curtains, clothing, shoes, boots, hats, decorations, beds, toys for children --- all can be re - used, garage sale, or donate....

When you donate you may help many others have the chance to own something they have never enjoyed before ! That way all over the world may enjoy the items....those who are good, appreciate, wish to try for better.....wonderful for all over world, state, country to be donated  re - usables, that still have good use for life....May help lives ! 

Donating canned, or other non - perishable food items to local food pantry, or other good reputable trustworthy causes is also nice if you can, new hygienic items and food, to shelters for humans and pet shelters also ! 

When donating items make very sure they are wrapped in boxes, secure, labeled, categorized, addressed, described...place bubble wrap onto breakable items, to keep them safe as they are delivered elsewhere.....

Being kind like this, is always nice to be donating, helpful, working toward goodness, cleaning up, and recycling to clean up the world, while helping others ! 

Don't throw away items that are still good ! Garage sale, donate, re - use, recycle....still good use for many others...

just another day...

Enjoying spring, this week....feeling better....still allergies !

I have been admiring the clouds in the sky, how very pretty they are when they are rain clouds !.....I have my Midland weather radio placed in the house, ready to listen to the weather reports !....sometimes I just let the weather radio play the weather....I enjoy it.

These are nice to purchase only if you dwell in severe weather areas....program them, follow instructions, I programmed mine easily...for local counties....I hear texas storm reports, before they get here...weather is very interesting to me !....yes, I am a nerd....haha.

Office supplies are something I enjoy....I enjoy all of them.

Recently I found, at family dollar store, the cute, colorful daisy pens, with green stems !.....oh, they are sweet !...just $ 1.00 / a pen !!!...I like them ! Good to keep in purse..

--- Magnetic grocery list pads, that you place onto refrigerator in kitchen, are very nice and helpful to have....just write down items you need, then tear off as you need to remind you at store....all colorful hues, prints, characters lightly printed onto these....real pictures of puppies + cats, all animals, religious, regional, art, butterflies, fruit, heritage, cowboy wild west, foods, flowers, bread + wine, country charm, farm life....whatever a person can think of....very cute ! I think these are nice.

--- notebooks, mini notebooks, planners, post it notes, address books, folders, sketch books, stationary, all in the colorful hues, designs, real pictures, glitter covers, animal picture covers, flowers --- I like the covers to be beautiful, cute, something nice, never just plain...I have purchased a few of these at Dollar stores, and Wal-Mart.....I see many puppies + cats, horses, birds cover pictures out there, very affordable and nice...

--- colorful design pencils, with neat foil exterior, glitters, seasonal, themes + good sharpeners that are in different shapes, color themes...very nice....

--- I seem to enjoy collecting erasers, that are in the form of those bakery items, very small, look just as a mini bakery item, some even are scented as baked items, never use, just enjoy looking at them....in small package, I purchased a pack of them for $ 2.00....lol...you know me !....always something different to find, look at....collect....haha

This is not an office supply, but the other day I purchased an American flag, it was a new brand to me called Betsy flags !...I have it waving in the wind, easy to assemble....

This is just randomness for today...

makeup....makeup stores...

Being beautiful is not the most important idea in the world...outward beauty is not important, being a good person, having a good kind heart is most important...we need to always remember this...

I know that looks do not matter of a person, and I know we don't have to wear makeup to be beautiful....your plain face is beautiful, we are all unique, different faces, skin colors, different hair colors, and different everything.....how boring would it be if we were all the same ?....very boring, to me !...I am happy we are all created to be unique / different....

I don't wear much makeup, everyday, I go to town locally to shop, and I am comfortable not wearing much makeup, dressing in just a t -- shirt, jeans, shoes, my hair not perfect, go ahead and just laugh !.....if I am going to town to quickly run errands, shop at Wal-Mart or a dollar store, well it doesn't matter...no makeup, not dressing up ...who cares on those days !....

people have always told me I am pretty without makeup, and that is very sweet of them to say to me....dust blowing in the wind, only stays all over you and your makeup some days, other days hot weather makes your makeup feel icky !...

I wash, and wash my face everyday with a bar of soap, that's all I use...feels better.

I enjoy applying makeup, and I am a woman, it is very fun for me to browse through makeup aisles in stores and go to those makeup stores with many items to look at and purchase....makeup for every part of your face...they have hair care items, nails, shower / bath, skin, body, more than makeup....lol..scents to apply and wear....fun for all of us girls !....

Makeup stores can be fun to look through...all items / prices....

Stores as :

Sephora
Ulta
Merle norman
Sally's
Others I have seen, beauty co....was one store I enjoyed years ago, Stila, Smashbox....lol

Makeup is art to me, I like to wear makeup when I attend events, go to nice areas to shop, enjoy the day with others...I even dress very classy, nice, when I go to those important events, nicer areas to shop or greet others to say hello !...

Remove makeup when you are back home, and you go to sleep, just wash with bar soap or makeup remover if you prefer that, I just like a good old bar of soap and wash cloth...simple.

I enjoy wearing makeup....I become very excited to see all of the many makeup items in stores and be able to purchase a few I can afford !....even false eyelashes are fun for me to apply and wear....art !

Wal-Mart, Cvs, Walgreens, Kmart, Target, dollar stores, have most affordable available....nice to have in local towns close by, if you need more makeup...

Locally I see that women sell Avon, and Mary Kay makeup....sometimes they have ads in newspapers, shop windows for their makeups.....

Throwing away old makeup is required to keep nasty bacteria from being applied to your face, never share your makeup with others, very unsanitary, can have germs, bacteria, best to purchase your own...icky ! to think about the nastiness....

I keep my makeup in a nice plastic makeup storage container with compartments, it is called Caboodle...oh, I adore the Caboodle...purchased mine many years ago...I enjoyed the colorful glittery container....mine is full of different makeups, stores well....

Wearing makeup is something I enjoy....just not every day, all the time..lol...I am tired, and the winds are dusty...I live in the countryside, so not much makeup is needed...haha !

purchasing easter sunday attire...

I am sick with allergies and sinus infection, the winds were terrible with pollen and dust filled sky....so now I am sick....tired of being sick....oh well.

Oranges are good for vitamin c....helps with bacterial infection....I need some 5 Alive juice....lol...

Thinking about how easter sunday is in about a month....attending easter Sunday service at local church has always been nice....dressing nicely is always good, I know not everyone can afford outrageously expensive clothing, and we don't need to !....

God, doesn't care about your clothing prices !.....boys, men...dress in crisp white / or colorful hues, long sleeve shirts, jeans, slacks, boots, shoes....ties always look nice, but not required...I think the ties, always look very nice on men....clean up....looks respectful for church services....

I remember I always had an easter dress yearly....all little girls should be able to go to a store and choose a very pretty easter dress !....

Teens and women need to have pretty easter dresses also !....it is fun to find colorful, or flower print dresses, top + skirt sets, or colorful pastel slacks + matching tops....

I enjoyed choosing a new easter dress every easter season....mine were affordable....I don't know exactly what prices they are now....I chose all pastel colorful hues...these are some of my favorite colors...

I had shoes that I chose...affordable....

Shoe stores have many sales / bargains affordable for entire family....Easter shoes can be dress shoes, sandles...I always have enjoyed wearing sandles for easter....

These stores I enjoy for good prices on shoes :

Payless
Shoe Department
Famous footwear
Shoe Carnival
Academy
Wal-Mart
Target
Stage
Ross's
TJ Maxx

Those are the stores I look for shoes at...

Attending easter Sunday church services, then going back home for easter Sunday dinner, easter egg hunting, opening gifts, ---- all fun events for easter Sunday.. ---- easter celebrations ! Tradition for me.

cake mix, easter baskets, easter egg kits.....

Purchased the Pillsbury spring confetti cake mix the other day, + the icing with spring sprinkles onto the top of container....these cake mixes and icings to go with, are very fun to create and have for celebrations, as easter time.

I have been seeing more and more of the easter gifts arrive in stores...oh, they are fun and very whimsical....I know I keep talking about them, but they remind me of happy memories that I had as a child on easter Sunday....I was fortunate to have nice easter celebrations...

Easter baskets are there, everywhere to purchase, with small toys, plush critters, candy, and stickers....a lot of fun to gift on easter Sunday !!!.....I think as a child I had almost every colorful plastic easter basket already prepared from a local store every year a different one.....

Some people may choose to create their own baskets, purchase supplies from dollar tree, more affordable for many, I know that !.....place whatever items I mentioned above into the baskets, adorn with sparkles, trinkets, toys, plush critters, then wrap in clear or lightly colorful see -- thru clear wraps, purchase at Dollar tree !....have fun, create it to be very cute to gift to children, 

or even create easter baskets, for adults in your family, or friends....add colorful flower pens, puzzle books, stickers, candies, small plush critters or whatever you wish....

The easter egg decorating kits are everywhere now, read the instructions on boxes, many to choose from !....if using fresh eggs from hen house, remember to check for baby chickens interior of egg, hold up to light, never boil eggs before checking for baby chickens.....terrible if happens ! Yikes !

Easter egg kits I have seen, look fun ! I also enjoyed these as a child....

Kits as : 

Tie dye
24 k
Dudley's
Paas
Crazy !
Glitter
Bunnies and chicks

Old fashion tradition for easter.

termites !

I was outdoors yesterday and there were some termites near the step !....they must be hatching, they had wings !.....often they look like an ant with wings...

I have had problems with termites for many years...oh, they are terrible to have interior or exterior your home, or any building built new or old......yikes....they just take over everything !

Termites can easily ingest your home in a matter of seconds it seems....they ingest the wood that may be built into your home.....they swarm often, they were near the window in one room awful, ingesting all the window frame, into the bathroom wall and floor, we have had to repair and replace much of the woodwork !!!....

When we had replaced these areas in the home, we could see their colonies they were living in and growing in...icky !

They chew up the home quickly, my grandparents home also was terrible with them....what a mess termites create !....

I can hear them chewing in the walls sometimes if they are near...this is a mess !

There was a local termite company that got rid of them years before....that helped some....they sprayed chemicals to rid them....

Terminex is one company that I know of, nationally....whew ! They could make money near here ! ....lol....how nasty these termites are...

Termites need to go away, and never return !

loyalty....

I am very relieved that spring is here....just wish for some rain and to be able to watch thunderstorms build up...I enjoy watching them...

I saw a few butterflies floating in the air yesterday morning early before the winds became stronger...butterflies are so very beautiful and peaceful...I wonder if they are always peaceful....?

I giggle about those Little Debbie snack cakes I found at the store, they are very cute !...shaped as a butterfly...very pretty and unique....

Thinking about being loyal to everything good, everyone you adore, everything you cherish....

Loyalty is very important. We should all be loyal to those things good in our lives, you don't know how very important this is....when you are able to have something wonderful and good in your life, that is a blessing, never toss it or them away....

Betrayal is many terrible things, painful, upsetting, depressing, a let down to all....causes much chaos, and loss.

Always forever be loyal to things / others who matter in life.

You don't know what you have, til it is gone, that's just how life is...always be loyal to what is important and good...you can lose and ruin so much goodness in your life in a matter of seconds when you betray, and don't appreciate what you have....

Loyalty to these are good and very important.

---loyalty to your country...be patriotic
---family....who is good, kind, trustworthy, love / care for you.
---work occupation...keep working....remain loyal.
---friends, good and kind to you who are trustworthy...never betray.

---amor, spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend, who are kind, love / adore you...never cheat, lie to, never abuse....never betray.

---pets ! They are always loyal to you ! Take good care, love / adore them, never hurt, abuse / neglect....respect them.

---forever be loyal to goodness, the good in life, never betray goodness !.....this only causes turmoil everywhere when you betray goodness, and don't appreciate it when you find it.

ol' towns....

Oh, these cats !
Fighting and peeing in the floor, meowing at the ceiling, singing, wrestling all day and night !...can't sleep ! Very tired already...help !....lol....all male cats...mischief.

Thinking about towns I have been to, there are many in the areas here of Oklahoma....I enjoy seeing them when I can, they all need work, cleaned up, re --started, they were all ruined by nasty evil people....

Many of these towns are small or grand, mostly historic....very quiet....that's always good.

Good places to live and start over with lives...I like to think of all the re -- building that could go on, and the good atmosphere that could create, and fun activities / events to plan....

Something special about old towns, that I enjoy.

Just an old town, thrown out there in isolated areas, best places to live, I like old rough and tough, dusty ol' cowboy towns....that's me....

They all need to be free of crime everywhere.

Today I am talking about these towns:

Chattanooga
Manitou
Elk city
Indiahoma
Weatherford
Frederick
Faxon
Grandfield
Snyder
Mangum
Sentinel
Rocky
Blair

I enjoy travelling, even if it is to only get away for a day....it helps me to feel better to be away sometimes.

Towns all need their charm back, evil people have ruined that too many years now...sadness.

reading....

Reading a good book is always a good way to calm down, get lost from worries, stresses....I have always enjoyed reading a nice book with many pages, good storylines, something I enjoy....

There are many book stores out there, and used book stores often have many books that are used for an affordable cost...I have purchased used books before, locally, they even have older titles ---nice reads.

Reading books is a good way to pass the time, get away from worries, and sadness, I think.

Good thing about books, you can travel with a few, take with you to read !

Many authors, titles, story lines, plots, characters --- all different...

Different genres / types:

Fiction
Suspense
Romance
Mystery
Informational
Sci - fi.
Local 
History
 Many others....

One genre that I would enjoy reading, I haven't yet read, would be fantasy....I would like to read one of those, see how I like those...

Bookmarks, are always fun, many available out there, to keep your place in books when you aren't reading, so you can find where you stopped before.

I noticed a scholastic book fair at a local school and I wanted to stop by ! ....lol....they always had all kinds of cute / neato children's books, pencils, pens, erasers, bookmarks, don't know why I adored those book fairs so much, but I did back then....lol....

Reading is fun.

bagels and cream cheese...

I have always enjoyed different food items for breakfast...

Bagels toasted in the toaster, they Pop ! up when toasted, then add + cream cheese placed onto the halves of the toasted bagel are good !...I enjoy this for breakfast once in a while....

cream cheese has cholesterol....people may wish for half the fat ( 1 /2 ) cream cheese that is available..not as good...but there for health concerns...

Many different kinds of bagels out there in stores on bread aisle, or freezer areas....

I have always enjoyed bagels + cream cheese....for breakfast, once I had ulcers in my stomach bad, and I would have a bagel + cream cheese, and it seemed to help some, but that is just me.....seek medical help for bad ulcers ya know !

Some may need whole grain / wheat bagels for dietary concerns...those are available...

Brands of these bagels I have tried and enjoy:

Orowheat
Lenders 
Sara Lee
David's Deli
Thomas
Braum's --- once had them, may still

I enjoy my bagels with some seasoning, so they aren't just a bread roll.....lol.....I purchased a package of a brand one day, can't remember the brand right now, but they had no seasoning, just as a plain bread roll.....haha....

Cream cheeses --- I enjoy most of them

Brands such as ---

--- Philadelphia
--- Great Value
--- Braum's
--- Save a lot, I think also has one I tried several years ago.

Breakfast time !

right with the lord...

This will be a ginormous post...lol..it is Sunday.

I think that everyone needs to know how to live the right and good way, we need to all have rules, guidelines to follow, so we will all know right from wrong, and what choices are the right and good choices, that will lead to peace and goodness...choosing the wrong, bad choices can forever ruin your life !....

I think one of the ways to learn how to be a good person would be to follow the bible, attend church, learn about The Lord and his son Jesus....knowing who they are, and what they wish for you, can help you throughout your life here on earth...

I think everyone should learn about, and know about God and Jesus, worship and praise them starting as early as possible, children should always be taught about them, that way, you know all about them, leading you to choose wisely, be righteous and good.....

I know not many people are taught of God, and his son, Jesus, at an early age, and that is ok, they can start learning about them at their age now...start as soon as you can, attend church, worship and praise The Lord and his son, Jesus....it will change your life, give you some guidelines to follow, help you understand life...

Everyone was born here on earth for a reason, because God loves everyone of us !....Everyone has a purpose in life, to create goodness, end evil, and he wishes for us to always do his will...sadly, very many people choose to ignore God, and avoid Jesus, religion, and that is upsetting, when God created us all here on earth and loves us....worship and love him too ! He adores us all, we have a purpose here on earth, while we are here, he will choose us all for goodness here to do as he asks, when you behave, follow, worship him and Jesus....I have seen this happen with many people.

When you do not know of him and his son Jesus, your life is very sad...attending church, creating goodness, ending evil, working for The Lord, is always something we should be thinking of, and you need to always think of being righteous for him.....

I think that, nobody wishes to go burn in hell with the devil, yikes !...the way many people behave, and do not try to know + follow God, and Jesus, I know that when they ignore them, and never try to turn from their evil ways, they will burn in hell, never go to heaven....this is very serious with your soul...you will burn for all eternity down there in hell when you are involved in evil, corruption, nastiness, and you keep taking part in that crap and supporting it ! You will go to hell...

I have heard the audio recordings that are on the internet of hell....people drilling for oil +gas down into the earth have heard and recorded with equipment....listen if you can to those ! Very upsetting !....icky !

God can forgive you of all sins, but you have to try and make an effort to follow him and Jesus, worship and know of them, be devout in your worship of God and Jesus, his son...

God is the judge of all humans, he is the creator of all...I never judge people for mistakes, bad choices they choose, it is very easy to fall into mischief, get into trouble and lose our way, with so much upset, evil in our lives, know one there in our family to love / care for us, it is sad for me to see so many people and animals abused, neglected, terribly hurt, and I know the lord also cries about this evil mess down here on earth.....so he wishes for us all to work together to clean it up with goodness always, and end evil....

People need to turn from their evil ways, follow The Lord and Jesus, when you know you have a second chance to start your life all over as a better person and you try, you know life can be better, take your second chance and start over right now, attend church, be baptized, be forgiven of your sins, before it is too late !

Jesus died, and was crucified on the cross all those years ago, so we can be forgiven of our sins, I think about how sad that is, he died for us so we can be forgiven of stupid sins !....and many sadly choose to not follow and love him...how awful !

I know that the more people who know of the lord and Jesus, the world is a better place, we need to all be better people, try to achieve greatness for the good, giving God the glory !

Rejoice, celebrate, attend church, be baptized, and know your soul is safe with knowing and following the lord and jesus...working for the lord is an honor for all, to know him, love him, and work for him....we all need to know this, take part in goodness...

Get out there, attend church, re--start the churches, those evil people have ruined and torn down, be charitable, kind, caring, try to strive for goodness everyday....

Being active in your church is fun ! , so many events to plan + attend....while bringing goodness, helping others to get their lives under control, be much better for the lord...church is also a good social activity, learn of the lord and Jesus together, while creating fun activities, and events....

When I know that church is something many do not care for, just know it is more fun now, not boring !.....many do not care to talk of religion, I know this, but they need to be aware of this...very serious with your soul, heaven and hell ! Yikes !

I feel better attending church, making a good difference in the world, helping those in need, that is what we are here for to be helpful, kind, caring, loving, always know that God, can choose us for greatness !

spring cleaning, wreaths, plastic eggs....

Spring cleaning yesterday....I see many people outdoors now of their home mowing, trimming trees, painting, removing vegetation that are dead, and a mess !....looks good.

Need to be tidy, clean up messes, and keep working on beautification exterior and exterior of your home and property...

I placed my easter wreath up onto the wall, these look so very nice...the foam easter egg wreaths are plain or glitter, very nice for spring and easter...at most stores.

I enjoy listening to the birds singing their cheerful songs in the trees lately, it is nice to cheer me up, they sound so very happy...bluebird, wrens, robins ---all very happy singing..they have been creating nests in the trees, gathering most any materials of nature they can to create the nests with to lay eggs...their babies are very sweet and cute !

The robin bird lays very pretty blue pastel hued eggs...I have seen them often in spring, they always refer to the color when seen on other items as the color " Robin's egg blue ".....it is very beautiful to me....

Thinking about eggs, I have been seeing many packages of the faux plastic easter eggs in stores now, they are for halving and placing candies, small toys, coins, or stickers interior then placing back the plastic halves together....very affordable at Wal-Mart, dollar tree, other stores and oriental trading magazine.....all color hues, designs, ideas...glitters....even religious themed....very nice...

Theses faux plastic eggs are durable and you can place small gifts interior, very neato...

Dollar tree is a nice affordable place for churches, and others who have many guests / crowds attending the easter celebrations.....my church has always been able to purchase grand sized quantities of easter and other seasonal wares there...affordable....

Those plastic faux eggs are very brightly colorful in many colors, I think about these during this time of year....

easter plush critters, statues, and stickers.....

Happy St. Patrick's Day !!!....wear green today so you will not be pinched on the arm....

I was able to go to town yesterday, and you know me, I had to browse through the seasonal aisle that happens to be easter right now...I become very excited about easter and all of the beautiful bright pastel color hues of spring season and easter season....

Tradition at easter for me, would be many ideas....I enjoy collecting the easter plush critters in all colorful hues, types, different every year...I adore the baby chicks, rabbits, lambs, baby ducks, and even the peeps (as the candy ) plush I have found before in stores, they are very cute plush critters ! Great gifts ! On most seasonal aisles, and in dollar stores, Wal-Mart, where I mostly find them...very traditional for me to purchase yearly, decorate with and keep clean in plastic storage boxes with lids.....place all decorations in these collect, keep every year !

There are also the chocolate scented plush rabbits, at most stores, oh, they smell wonderful !

I think that rabbits are so very cute and a beautiful animal, very docile, and sweet....

Prayer plush critters are very special during this season, being that easter is a religious holiday...same types of plush critters, I have purchased at Dollar stores, and Wal-Mart, all prices..very sweet  and cute !

I have been browsing through the recent oriental trading easter magazine...and I wish for everything !!!...lol

Wal-Mart now has a similar aisle that I think is a very nice addition to the seasonal items for purchase, just almost same items as oriental trading items...small toys, and stickers....

I adore collecting stickers, seasonal, and all different kinds I purchase all sticker sets I can find....I purchased a few easter sticker sets yesterday for about $ 1.00/set...a hobby of mine since I was a child...very fun...I keep them clean, dry, keep in package...I may set at table or at night if I cannot sleep I look at them while resting in bedroom....these also I store in smaller plastic box...I purchase sticker sets everywhere and collect them....often affordable, nice hobby !

The small tabletop statues they have available for spring and easter are always so colorful in pastels, and the shapes of rabbits, lambs, chicks, ducks, flowers, easter eggs, and then I also enjoy the Jesus, risen from tomb statue scenes, and the crosses...very neato !

I am looking forward to spring season's renewal, watching everything turn green and restart again....oh, the allergies though...pollen !

Spring cleaning is also nice, getting rid of old dead trees, vegetation, tilling gardens, planting....renewal of most everything...

miniature horses !....

My internet has been very messed up lately, and slow !...always something wrong...oh well...

I have been thinking about pets a lot lately, and I know about the miniature horses !.....oh, they are so very cute and tiny !....

Sadly many of the miniature horses have been terribly neglected and abused by nasty evil weirdo creepers !!!...it makes me very upset, and breaks my heart to know that this has went on !!!

 Animal abusers need their Damn heads blown off !!!...everyone needs to be aware that this has went on and quickly report animal abuse neglect when you can...

These tiny horses are very docile, sweet, comforting, and will run and play....very entertaining !.....they create happiness wherever they may go ! Aww....smiles.

Many color hues of the miniature horses.

Never have them just for a petting zoo, let them have their own extra space in their pens, keep them safe, they need certain feed, they need shelter, small houses, brush them, bathe them, adore them ! ....I know I adore them ! ...cute

They are wonderful for families, nice for the children, but never let the children harass or continually annoy them....they need quiet, respect, and rest like all of us...

They need plenty of hugs and attention....always take very good care of them....

Give them freedom in grand size pens, love / adore them, never abuse them !....oh, I cry over them !....they all need forever homes with wonderful families !!!

They are very sweet and playful, they adore hugs from you !..their babies are so very tiny and how cute and sweet they all are !

I wish to adopt several of them myself eventually...maybe 4 or 5 of these cuties ! I adore them...

Your family may adore them also...I think everyone needs to adopt several of them !....just make very sure you can afford them, and have time for them, never let anything happen to them, other pets may hurt or harass them, so keep them contained in pens from other pets....

Moving their pens often is best, and scooping their poops from the pens with shovels is necessary for hygiene / cleanliness ok  ? 

Adopt several miniature horses today !!! Adore them ! They are your family too !

working for the good....

Very tired...sleep is required always.

Thinking about all of the danger and turmoil in our lives, and the world....so many problems we all need to work together on diligently to end !

Anytime you can work for a good agency that strives to stop all evil, danger, corruption in the world we know that it is best to always try and work for them -- best way to clean up our lives and the world...bored or depressed with your life ??? Why not just work for a good agency that ends all crime, danger, evil...make a good difference ! 

It is best to always try to keep your life, country / nation, state, safe, and clean....keep danger away !

We have to continually work together to stop all the nastiness in the world, globally, and even locally, close by you....never cease in our efforts to end the crime / evil...

Peace needs to be global, everywhere.

We have to keep working constantly so that problems can be stopped as soon as they start ! This way, we maybe can have less stress, worries, agitation, and less b.s. !....lol...we don't need anymore of the b.s. in our lives do we ??!....haha....I know I have had enough of that ! 

Riff - raff is annoying, ruins everything, and they want nothing but to start evil wherever they may go, they need to be gone from everywhere...sick of those evil creepers ! Annoying !

Hopefully, by continually working for good agencies, we can keep our lives, and our friends / family's lives safer, this can help to end sadness and pain....

we need to work together constantly to stop all rape, abuse, neglect, poverty, drug addictions, prostitution, and illness --- this is sadness for everyone....

Life can be much better when we are all working for the good to stop all evil, everyone needs to try and keep working continually to make the world a better place...working for those good agencies is always good for us globally, and locally....one problem a zillion miles away from you, can eventually grow and start to affect your life, that's why we need to work together everywhere to stop problems before they grow and take over the world ! 

Always try to bring peace to the world, and work for goodness, ending all evil.

mini bibles...

Being that it is Sunday, I know the bible is something we all will probably read today...

Bibles can have many different styles, inks, fonts, colorful covers, many can be personalized...each bible is different..even different versions...

Reading your bible daily for spiritual guidance, inspiration, or even looking for help with life --- all good ideas !

The smaller mini bibles are nice to carry with you, in your purse, vehicle, travel case, they sometimes are referred to as " pocket bible minis " I think these mini bibles are nice for all, and make good gifts to give to others...

Adults, teens, and children all can read them, you can personalize the interior of the bible with writing to, and from, you may even include a nice message....these are so very nice....

Mini bibles are often given at special events in one's life, meetings, births, church....you may gift to friends / family, acquaintances....

I have a few, they are readable, the prints are all sizes...

They have them in all colorful covers, and we need many more in all languages....

Nice to read in times of upset, gloomy days, and days when you feel overwhelmed, ( too busy )

dating violence.....

I know many people date often, from teenagers to adults...it is often very stressful trying to find someone that is not dangerous to go on a date with...

Everyone who is going to go out on a date, needs to be very careful, and I think that when you are asked out on a date with someone whom you don't really know yet, you always need to be very cautious and aware of the dangers....

Going out on a first date with someone ??? Why not take along other friends who are dating and attend an event, for safety...this would be better many times before you know someone...get to know them better with friends along to attend dates / events....

Rape, sodomy, drug abuse --poisoning, all these things I know go on with dates, needs to end !!! Be more aware on dates, and know who your date is....

Teen dating definitely needs to be monitored always...and I think parents need to be very strict with teens !!! ....I couldn't wear makeup, drive a vehicle, or attend any activities after school because of danger.....

As a teen, I wasn't allowed to wear tight, see thru clothing or low cut blouses, no makeup....I didn't wish to dress provocatively anyway, but I had strict teen rules from my family...I am very happy they were strict, so many terrible things could have happened....they knew my every move always, because they adored me...I am thankful.

I never really had a date until I was 18 years old....lol...and I had to pay for the date, show, event...he was just really a friend I felt sad for, he asked me out....haha !....nothing more....I didn't really care for dating or any of that...I was all interested in music, and singing, art, farming,  more than I was a silly ol' boyfriend !....lol...I never slept with anyone.

I saw / heard of many violent dates they talked about at my hometown, and local area towns / cities....very upsetting, disturbing....probably prostitution / drugs use, a lot of that going on with others....upsetting sadness ! But I know everyday many young teens who are innocent are on dates and are coaxed to be promiscuous, and they can be violently raped, hit, left for dead, drugged, killed, that saddens me for the innocent teens, young adults, and adults...goes on with all..needs to end..we need more awareness programs for dating violence !

Being placed on dates with others as terrible joke, is awful, and sometimes this goes on to intentionally hurt physically / emotionally, rape, hit, disease, belittle, make fun of, very disgusting, upsetting, and those weirdos need to end ! ....I have seen and heard about this happening to all ages, and they have tried to have that done to me !....nasty hillbilly kinfolk trying to have terrible things done to me by others....haha ! ....I just laugh in their faces, never trusted them !!!...oh, how they screamed when their evil plans fell through / didn't work !!!! Hahaha !...they couldn't catch me, I am too smart for those nasty pieces of sh#t !...lol...I just laugh.

Keep your teenagers safe, tell them of the dangers of dating violence, never let them go out on dates alone or wait until they are 18 years old, do not dress provocatively !!! No make up til older....tell them no promiscuity, no sleeping with others til marriage...purchase a Christian True love waits ring...those are good keepsakes/ reminders to stay pure til marriage....stop many problems before they happen at young age, or any age while dating....sleeping around isn't good for anyone, causes too much sadness, hurt feelings. upsets, disarray with one's life ! Be married first...The Lord does not like promiscuity !!!

talk with them about nastiness of promiscuity, teen pregnancy, unwanted stds....many dangers for teens, young adults, and even older adults with dating....know someone first before totally trusting them...that's just how I am with everything, after all this dangerous b.s. in my life....and surroundings ! 

You do not have to sleep with someone to go on a date !!!...that's nasty / cheap of a person, all ages have taken part in that, needs to stop. Old --fashioned dates, simple, attend event, go back home...nothing more...nice !

Often they sleep with someone on dates, and then one of them will go talk about / brag about, laugh about sleeping with someone who is a virgin....nasty, disgusting ! ...then they think oh, I can have this one in bed, I can have many others....weirdos....you have to be very careful, watchful for these types of nasty trashy people, don't bed hop !

You do not have to sleep with someone to be valuable ! You are wonderful without all that !

Belittling, tearing down, making fun of beloved you are dating is disgusting, saying your beloved whom you are dating, is not perfect enough, beautiful enough, body wise, or clothing, or maybe they don't take part in nastiness, those running their mouths off at you !?? get rid of them ! So do not let them constantly ridicule or harass you over things they think you are not perfect enough about or won't take part in...they do not care for you ! stand up to them, and leave, never return, nobody needs to put up with that sh# t !!! Many others to choose from for a date every once in a while..

Dating is many things, but it can be too weird, stressful...who wants all that mess !!!..... haha !

moving, relocation, new home....

Often in life people are required to move from their place of life, onto another town, another city, or another house...this happens to most everyone in life.. ..because of work, illness, or any other life event....

It can be a very sad, stressful, scary event to move, being nervous is natural.....making plans for moving months before you move is best....acquiring a home before you leave to move is good, or if in apartments to dwell, know some about where they are located, and the rent, is there plenty of space for the occupants ??? You may look at homes for rent / purchase.....look at online before moving, they often advertise online....listings tell information.

Take cleaning supplies with you, to clean before / after moving in....

Search through newspaper ads or online for work occupations close by your new home, or in close local town, any work is needed....this could be way to meet others....help to pay bills....

Pets are your family so keep them secure in pet taxis with doors secured / locked...so they cannot escape ! Very important....keep cats interior of home always, small dogs also, other grand sized dogs collar + leash til at new home...take care of them while travelling to new home !

Moving trucks can be rented, fill interior with all home items you are taking with you to your new location, wrap items that can break easily in bubble wrap, material that will keep it from rolling all over the moving truck, you need many cardboard boxes that are strong to place items into, use packing tape to seal the boxes good...plastic storage boxes with lid tops..work nicely..fill to top, you may need many to store items for move....

U - haul, and Budget are two moving truck rentals I know of.....drive to new location, unpack then drive rental truck to local in the area truck rental...

Clean storage units out, you may have a garage sale before you move, advertise with homemade signs, or in local newspapers....try to do this garage sale a few weeks or months before moving....maybe help with expenses, and space !!! 

When arriving to moving destination, you may need to rent a storage unit, and this can be helpful if available...some may not have storage units available....place items you have no space for in these storage units, for cost, always secure these storage units with locks....remove items as needed.

When arriving to location you may need to purchase furniture, tables, beds, chairs, clothing, lamps, refrigerators, microwave, glassware, cooking pans and pots.....purchase at garage sales, thrift shops, Goodwill, any second hand stores...for cost...clean before use ! Sanitize ! .....could be more so affordable, or if you have enough money, purchase brand new.

Children may need to be enrolled in local schools, talk with school officials, talk to the kids about new school, and how it takes time to make new friends...it is nervous / stressful for them....

New towns, cities, may be very different from where you are now, know that these towns / cities may have curfews, not everything locally available as before you lived elsewhere....other things of town / city life will be different....

Attending church, city / town meetings is a good way to become involved in the new home town....meeting others is best way to understand the area, and identify with townspeople, it could help your children also....town events, church events, school events are nice to be apart of, as well as local good charitable organizations.....helping out / volunteer is also good way to meet others....try ! 

Starting over your life in a new location is always life changing, just know that many go through this, and probably feel the same about the relocating....

Your life may be better after moving, meet new good people who are clean + sober, trustworthy who will be good friends to you....nice to be social with, friends your whole life, maybe !....

Adjusting to relocation / moving, takes time and patience...things will eventually be better....emotions will calm...

Many emotions happen with moving, saying goodbye to old friends, goodbye to old ways maybe, goodbye to towns / cities you grew up in, or having to tell family goodbye...don't be sad ! Call and write letters.....

When you have a new home, you may wish to clean, repair if needed, paint walls interior or exterior with a paint color you prefer....

start over new with everything....

out at night.....

I forget how twinkling and beautiful the lights are on the store fronts,  in towns and cities at night !

It has been many years since I have been able to go to town at night, and see the sights and sounds...I never am able to go out at night because of danger, and we all need to be aware of those dangers...being out at night it can be difficult to see your surroundings and drive...

I cannot see the night sky above because of all the lights in the towns/cities....but when at home I see the zillions of beautiful stars above, that way, I can drive underneath the stars ! and still see them...until I am in a town...

We all need to feel safe / be safe at night travelling, or being in town....I think these are good ways to help with safety.

--- charge cellphones, take chargers
--- know your surroundings, where you are
--- pre - determine travel routes, streets for driving
--- always take with you many responsible adults
--- children need to always be supervised
--- pre - plan all night events before leaving with others
--- take plenty of money with you for events
--- plan fun, clean, safe, good events to attend 
--- events that I think are fun / nice.....baseball games, skating, bowling, a show, a date, music instrumental, theatre performance, laser tag...keep pets at home.

--- drive safely, responsibly, no alcohol
--- before leaving for night events, make very sure your vehicle is in good proper working order, all lights work, tires are aired, etc...
--- park vehicle in well lighted areas, for safety
--- secure all vehicles, lock always while unattended.
--- know where your vehicle / house keys are at all times, keep secure in purse zipped pockets, on lanyards attached secure around neck, interior jeans pocket...very serious, if lost keys, you are in trouble !!! Yikes !

--- keep awake while driving
--- enjoy dinner, pizza, hamburgers, fries, popcorn etc....
--- laugh and enjoy the night with friends / family....this is most of all important, create good memories.

Don't wear your pajamas to Wal-Mart shopping !!! ....unless it is 2 am or later !!!....hahaha ! Don't forget to wear shoes....lol...you might need to go enjoy the pancakes at waffle house or I hop.....lol.....just laugh !
