 WEAREVER - (www.WeareverUS.com)


This nice company asked me to try a couple products and do a review for them.
Now this is an absorbent, washable, reusable briefs that helps you maintain your dignity, saves you money and protects the enviornment.

WHAT"S NOT TO LIKE?

 - one-piece discreet design with built-in pad
- patented absorbant, ordor-control fibers
-washable, reusable over 200 machine washes
-looks and feels like regular underwear
-protect the environment from disposable diapers
-maintain your dignity
- SAVE MONEY


They also offer 100% cotton diabetic socks made by Buster Brown, for maximum comfort and durability. They are appropriate for those with poor circulation, easily irritated skin, or diabetes.

 Buster Brown 100% cotton socks are made with no elastic or synthetics. The seamless design of Buster Brown cotton socks with cushioning improve comfort, reduce binding, and eliminate skin irritation.

Okay - now here's the deal - there's going to be a drawing for a pair of diabetic socks.  

Leave me a comment saying you are interested in the socks.  I'll pick next Thursday when I have another new product to review from Old World Market . . .  you'll have to come back and see what that is!!!

I have to tell you the socks and undies were everything they promised...and I was not paid any money for this recommendation.




THE LAUGH:






THE LIFT:

A good friend sent me this and I wanted to share it with you :-}}

This is so neat. I had never heard this before. This is beautiful - and it is surely worth making the 5 finger prayer a part of our lives.


1. Your thumb is nearest you. So begin your prayers by praying for those closest to you. They are the easiest to remember. To pray for our loved ones is, as C. S. Lewis once said, a 'sweet duty.'


2. The next finger is the pointing finger. Pray for those who teach, instruct and heal. This includes teachers, doctors, nurses, and ministers. They need support and wisdom in pointing others in the right direction. Keep them in your prayers.


3. The next finger is the tallest finger. It reminds us of our leaders. Pray for the president, leaders in business and industry, and administrators. These people shape our nation and guide public opinion. They need God's guidance.


4. The fourth finger is our ring finger. Surprising to many is the fact that this is our weakest finger, as any piano teacher will testify. It should remind us to pray for those who are weak, in trouble or in pain. They need your prayers day and night. You cannot pray too much for them.


5. And lastly comes our little finger - the smallest finger of all, which is where we should place ourselves in relation to God and others. As the Bible says, 'The least shall be the greatest among you.' Your pinkie should remind you to pray for yourself. By the time you have prayed for the other four groups, your own needs will be put into proper perspective and you will be able to pray for yourself more effectively.

GOD BLESS ALL THE TROUPS Monday's Fragments



I, Chatty Crone, want to thank all the military - past and present - even the future military - all wars -  for fights that have not been named war - at peace time - men and women - who have served our country - to keep it free,  We are so lucky   BLESSED to live here.  There is no place better.  And you're always there.  No time off.  No sick time.  You're just there.

THANK YOU!

I hope you have a wonderful day off and that you can do whatever you want to do.  You have given that freedom to us.

THE LAUGH:
Maybe you can take a nap - Disco suggested it for you!


THE LIFT:

It is the
VETERAN,
not the preacher,
who has given us freedom of religion.

It is
the VETERAN,
not the reporter,
who has given us freedom of the press.

It is
the VETERAN,
not the poet,
who has given us freedom of speech.

It is
the VETERAN,
not the campus organizer,
who has given us freedom to assemble.


It is
the VETERAN,
not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.


It is
the VETERAN,
not the politician,
Who has given us the right to vote.



It is the
VETERAN who
salutes the Flag,


It is
the
VETERAN
who serves
under the Flag,

ETERNAL REST GRANT THEM O LORD, AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON
THEM.



God, Bless them all!!!
