You can now find recliners with powered recline features. Many new recliners also have a variety of other therapeutic options including heat, air massage and even vibration massage.

Comfort is an important aspect of choosing a recliner. One of the important elements of a recliner is the upholstery covering. Make sure you select and upholstery that is comfortable to sit on for long periods of time. Also consider ones that are easy to clean and more stain resistant.

When it comes to Christmas gifts many people prefer something store bought over something home made. Would you rather have that hot IPOD you’ve been eye balling all year or a sweater your sister spent months knitting?

Personally, I believe its the thought that counts. Nobody owes you anything. If someone uses their own resources to present you with a gift…no matter what the gift is…shouldn’t you appreciate the fact that they even thought of you?

A home made gift means the person took TIME to actually CREATE something with THEIR OWN HANDS especially for YOU.

They may not have spent a lot of money or waited in ridiculous lines to get you the latest greatest gadget….but they did take TIME (the one thing we can neither put a price on or get back).

Doesn’t that count for something?

I believe it does. A home made gift is always made with Love and surely comes straight from the heart. My aunt April says those are often the best gifts. When I was a little girl I always made gifts for my family and friends. Most of the time I had to explain what the gifts were because it wasn’t always apparent (smile). This year I’m going back to the basics…

I won’t be wearing a Santa hat this year…today I’m putting on my Betty Crocker hat and apron to make tasty treats made with lots of LOVE for the ones I love!

Having worked years in retail I don’t shop the day after Thanksgiving… or the day after Christmas… Brings back too many unhappy memories. Retail is a grueling thankless job especially this time of year!

Holiday shopping is never something I look forward too. Why? Because people are rude, pushy, and overly aggressive.

The holiday spirit of peace, love, and joy turns ugly when it comes to shopping. Today a man was trampled to death by a stampede of eager shoppers at a Wal Mart in green acres mall. He worked at the store and was simply doing his job.

When did

things

become more important than common courtesy or even respecting and regarding human life? Why are people so eager to purchase

stuff

that they would stampede a store for a Black Friday Deal?

When you’re out shopping, be respectful and courteous.  Remember the golden rule. Treat people the way you want to be treated.  Is that so hard?

ATTENTION WALMART SHOPPERS!

Stay cool, calm, and collected.  Say thank you, be nice to the workers.  Take your time and be mindful of the people around you. PEOPLE FIRST!

Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it.

“Is this your car, Mister?” he asked.

Paul nodded. “My brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was astounded. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish…” He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels.

“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.”

Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, “Would you like to take a ride in my automobile?”

“Oh yes, I’d love that.”

After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes aglow, said, “Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?” Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. Read the full story

In times when it seems that the world is going to hell in a gasoline handbasket I still believe in miracles. I’ve been blessed and am blessed daily and have no choice but to believe in miracles. In my 32 years I’ve seen and experienced some things that cannot be explained.

mir·a·cle
An event that appears inexplicable by the laws of nature and so is held to be supernatural in origin or an act of God.

As November becomes December and we get in a frenzy about the holidays its important that we not lose sight as to what the holidays are really about…the holiday season is rooted in MIRACLES.

No matter what you personally believe in, you cannot deny that all of the rituals, observances, and symbols surrounding this time of year are rooted in miracles…The miracle of the fat man in a red suit flying with reindeer sliding down chimneys with gifts, the miracle of enough olive oil for one night lasting 8 nights during the re-dedication of the temple, and the birth of Jesus to a virgin.

While we celebrate all of these things it often seems that many of us are reluctant to really believe in miracles. Yet when we examine our own lives everyone of us can attest to miracles.

Today I’m thinking about a conversation I had a few weeks ago with a friend. We were talking about worrying and how worrying doesn’t help things. I had a similar conversation this afternoon with my big sister. It has taken me many years to understand that worry causes stress and stress manifests mess. I now live free of stress because I KNOW without a doubt that I am blessed.

This same time 7 years ago I was sick riddled with Sarcoidosis barely able to get out bed some days and on an assortment of medications getting shots in my hip! (I HATE needles). Today I’m healthy, I feel great, and I’m not on any medication (Thank God).

I remember standing on the bus stop at 4am to get to the train station to catch another bus to get to work by six. I remember working late (after the bus stopped running) and having to call friends and family for rides home. I remember the days of rain and cars passing by drenching me on the bus stop. I recall days of missing buses and trains by a second. I recall days when buses just passed me by…I remember when my first car a 1983 Buick Regal threw a rod on a bridge in Virginia.

I remember when the transmission in my old Chrysler, Taurus, and Fairmont died. I have the painful memory of losing the Palm My Ride Contest in which I was competing for a new Ford Mustang. I remember the day before Christmas last year when our car was stolen (got it back hours later that same day).

This year, The day after Thanksgiving we were blessed with a new car.

Today I’m driving a 2008 Camry! (God is Good).

I believe with all my heart that my Maker is well aware of my needs and has it all under control (my every need is supplied) no matter how things may look to my natural eye. It’s not our place to worry about anything. A few weeks ago a friend expressed concern about praying and waiting for things to happen, her view is its about taking action. I get that… After all, faith without works is dead…

However, I know the power of prayer and have seen it at work in my life. My prayers are answered. Sometimes I have to wait for the answers to manifest because God works in His time not mine. Miracles and prayer go hand in hand. Miracles and blessings are very real! Prayer is powerful. No matter what the situation, no matter how dismal things may seem, we all have access to divine intervention.

Nothing is impossible to those that believe.

It’s been a long time since I’ve done a Christmas list that was actually of things that I want not things that I want to buy for other people. This year I’m going all out. I figure Santa has gotten high tech so to make sure he gets my wish list I thought I’d post it here in the form of a letter. I’m certain he reads my blogs daily so there is no possible way for this to slip by him.

Dear Santa,

I haven’t asked for anything since 1992. Its been 15 years that should count for something right? (smile). I tried emailing you but it kept bouncing back. I was wondering if you save letters and Christmas lists for future use? Every year I seem to get something that I asked for years before.

I thought it best I tell you to please hold off on the pony until further notice. I figured using the Internet would expedite the process and perhaps ensure that my 2007 list is actually processed in 2007.

Anyhoo, I know you’re really busy especially with all the toy recalls… I heard due to hard times you had to lay off most of your elves and do some outsourcing to China for toys. I’m sure the whole lead issue has thrown a monkey wrench in your plans. Read the full story
