Sharon has come through one surgery and has at least
two more to go through. I do not understand all that
is going on with her but she has to have a triple bi-pass/
open heart surgery and the doctor said it might be a month
or more until she can have that surgery as her carotids
and other arteries were so blocked.
I will keep you updated as I learn more.
thanks so much to loyal and long-term Rimmer Faye for
your love-filled, concerned messages and your prayers.
We both appreciate you more than we can say :-) XO

Featured Article
The Budget - The Ultimate Financial Management Tool
A carpenter uses a set of house plans to build a house.
If he did not, the bathroom might get overlooked altogether.
Rocket Scientists would never begin construction on
a new booster rocket without a detailed set of design
specifications. Yet most of us go blindly out into the
world without an inkling of an idea about finances
and without any plan at all.
Not very smart of us, is it?
A money plan is called a budget and it is crucial to
get us to our desired financial goals.
Without a plan we will drift without direction
and end up marooned on a distant financial reef.
If you have a spouse or a significant other,
you should make this budget together.
Sit down and figure out what your joint
financial goals are ... long term and short term.
Then plan your route to get to those goals.
Every journey begins with one step and the
first step to attaining your goals is to make
a realistic budget that both of you can live with.
A budget should never be a financial starvation diet.
That won’t work for the long haul.
Make reasonable allocations for food, clothing, shelter,
utilities and insurance and set aside a reasonable amount
for entertainment and the occasional luxury item.
Savings should always come first before any spending.
Even a small amount saved will help you reach
your long term and short term financial goals.
You can find many budget forms on the internet.
Just use any search engine you choose and type in
free budget forms.
You’ll get lots of hits. Print one out and work on it
with your spouse or significant other. Both of you will
need to be happy with the final result and feel like it’s
something you can stick to.
this is reprinted from one of my collections of PLR-
Private Label Rights articles. I usually have to edit
them quite a bit but was happy with this one as is.
Especially with the economy the way it is and people
who have been fortunate to never feel the crunch before
now getting a glimpse of the way most of us live,
this article seemed timely.

I am such a loyal Dolly fan - I not only have ALL of her
utube vids and music bookmarked, I have all of her cd's
and cassettes I could find AND all of her movies.
This song can pretty much wake up the dead and get them
going and I hope even those (eek!) who do not love Dolly
or country (and I like very little country, lol) will
enjoy this song and her beautiful, sweet voice.

Funny of the Day
Bedside Manners
Susie's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma
for several months. Things looked grim, but she was by
his bedside every single day. One day as he slipped back
into consciousness, he motioned for her to come close to him.
She pulled the chair close to the bed and leaned her ear
close to be able to hear him.
"You know" he whispered, his eyes filling with tears,
"you have been with me through all the bad times.
When I got fired, you stuck right beside me.
When my business went under, there you were.
When we lost the house, you were there.
When I got shot, you stuck with me.
When my health started failing, you were still by my side.
"And you know what?"
"What, dear?" she asked gently, smiling to herself.
"I think you're bad luck."
