To all who read this blog........
first I want to say , I DO NOT AGREE with this WAR!!!
I have no children over there, but I Do feel very sorry for Mothers and Fathers ,
who's children are there or any place there is shooting and death in this world,,
I received this EMAIL ...thought what a wonderful thing it would be to take part and send an email to some one over there. Just to let them know we are really thinking and praying for them. Maybe you will feel the same way.. if so please send it , and pass this blog message to your friends so they can do it also.
I am just an OLD LADY who would like to see peace in this world some day,,,,,,

I hope you will do this for the guys and gals stuck in this terrible situation,,




Just Say Thanks! How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one. If you go to the web site at www.letssaythanks.com you can pick out a thank you card and the Xerox Corporation will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services. It is FREE and it only takes a second. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these?

Forgiveness !!!!!

This is the kind of old lady I wanna be!!!
Toward the end of Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?"80% held up their hands.
The Minister then repeated his question.
All responded this time, except one small elderly lady."Mrs. Jones?"; "Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"
"I don't have any." She replied, smiling sweetly.
"Mrs. Jones, that is very unusual. How old are you?""Ninety-eight." she replied.
"Oh Mrs. Jones, would you please come down in front & tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in the world?
"The little sweetheart of a lady tottered down the aisle, faced the congregation, and said:
"I out lived the bitches."

'Washing Clothes Recipe' imagine having a recipe for this ! ! !?
Years ago an Alabama grandmother gave the new bride the following recipe:

This is an exact copy as written and found in an old scrapbook - with spelling errors and all.
WASHING CLOTHES
Build fire in backyard to heat kettle of rain water.
Set tubs so smoke wont blow in eyes if wind is pert
Shave one hole cake of lie soap in boilin water
Sort things, make 3 piles
1 pile white,
1 pile colored,
1 pile work britches and rags.
To make starch, stir flour in cool water to smooth, hen thin down with boiling water.
Take white things, rub dirty spots on board, scrub hard, and boil, then rub colored don't boil just wrench and starch.
Take things out of kettle with broom stick handle, then wrench, and starch
Hang old rags on fence.
Spread tea towels on grass.
Pore wrench water in flower bed.
Scrub porch with hot soapy water.
Turn tubs upside down.
Go put on clean dress, smooth hair with hair combs.
Brew cup of tea, sit and rock a spell and count your blessings.

Paste this over your washer and dryer. Next time when you think things are bleak, read it again, kiss that washing machine and dryer, and give thanks. First thing each morning you should run and hug your washer and dryer, also your toilet- those two-holers used to get mighty cold!
For you non-southerners - wrench means rinse.
AND YOU THOUGHT YOU HAVE IT ROUGH !!
