Coming Soon: Rescued Gadget

Good Morning,

In this section of my Blog I will help you to find a new and usefull way to use old gadget and gizmos that might other wise belong in the trash. My first project is going to be an old CD shelf. As many of us are starting to ship them off to the Thirft Store in this era of MP3's and digital media it is time we find a new use for them.

Christmas.....HHMMMMM

Have you ever .... Noticed that so many people complain about how they love Christmas but they hate what everyone else, including the retail industry, has made it... What I find funny is those are also the people that are standing in line at 3am the day after Thanksgiving complaining and whining  BUT still  buy everyone and their brother some useless item just to be able to say they thought of them.And then they complain about their credit card debt. Christmas is what we make it not what THEY make of it. CHRISTmas is about CHRIST not shopping. It is about taking time to love on each other and tell each other how much we care. If you want it to be about family and Christ then make it that way. Christmas is about teaching teaching our children and grandchildren customs and traditions. It is not about a big fat man bringing gifts but about believing in something that you cant see and having those dreams confirmed with such a simple task as cookies being eaten... I just find this season to be sooo much more when you actually look at it.... Just think of the miracle that started it and how much hope and faith go in to it each and every year.

What is your favorite Christmas Tradition???

The Angry Man...

Have you ever noticed how angry people get.... I it is not like the olden days when people would hold there tongue in public and the vent to their spouse later.. No they have it in their mind that they need to scream, shout, and threaten people in public... I mean come on do you really think it is the cashier in the gas stations fault that ACRO doesn't accept Credit Cards. This is not a new concept but I just witness a man the other day cut my husband off at the gas pump, he then did not pull forward to the front pump so we had to go to another lane, he then walked right in front of us as we were driving. For all this we just kinda laughed but then as I was standing in line to pay I became very embarrassed to even be in the same room as the man. He was absolutely disrespectful and rude to the gentleman behind the counter. He through the money across the counter and acted as if he was better then everyone else. Come on God made us all equal and we need to start treating/loving each other not as we wish to be treated/loved but as we treat/love ourselves

SOoooo If you have a funny story or can maybe shed some light to this epidemic I would love to hear about it..... Or even ways to help me lessen my anger.....
