FRIDAY FAVorite

Today's favorite makes you clean, smell good and makes your skin soft. Its from:

BODY OF WATER SPA

While strolling through Facebook one day, I came across my husbands cousin, Ruby. I noticed a small ad on her FB page for Body of Water Spa. She never mentioned that it was her company, I only found out after clicking on the logo! Of course I had to try the products ! I would not include them as a Friday Fave had I not tried them first. They are WONDERFUL! I bought the scrub and gave it to my girls, and my grandsons girlfriend, as well as the Exfoli feet which I gave to Sarah, and I also bought the soap (Black Canyon) with embedded sponge for Hal. They smell so good and work so well. She has a variety of soaps, lotions, salts scrubs, etc. I would highly recommend you go to her site and check it out at:

www.bodyofwaterspa.com

I will be going back, they make great stocking stuffers or gifts for friends, or in my case...for myself!
Also, I would love it if you checked out an article the local newspaper wrote about Ruby and her husband. One night after work, they met for dinner, kissed goodbye to meet at home. As he left the restaurant, he was assaulted and left in a coma, unable to walk, talk or feed himself. This article tells a story of great love and determination. Here is the link:

My personal favorite? That's difficult, but I really like "Walk the Beach", But I wouldn't turn any of them down!

WHAT DAY IS IT?

My days have all blurred together since Thanksgiving. I was under the weather from the day after Thanksgiving until late Sunday. Nothing major, just a fibromyalgia flare up, but enough to keep me home bound and still. I almost anticipate them any more after lots of activity.
My grandson put my tree up for me, then Hal and I looked at each other and the pile of lights on the floor...and down the tree came. We decided to come into the current century and buy a pre lit tree. So the new tree is up, and partially decorated. I don't feel like putting all those many,many ornaments on it like in the past, mostly just the sentimental ones this year. Simplify is my new motto. Don't rush is my second motto. I couldn't even if I tried!
I went to Target and JoAnn Fabric & Crafts today, that was enough for me. I picked up the few things I needed (and a few I didn't) and called it a good day. I did have a hot dog at Target, I don't know why they always taste better then making them at home. The popcorn was smelling good too, but I passed.
I do believe it's time to end this account of not really anything, and start some dinner. Pork chops tonight!
PS
prayers for my girls (Sara & Amy) would be greatly appreciated....they could both use a healing touch. thank you!

Matthew 7:15
Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.

FRIDAY FAVorite

Today's fave is leftover Thanksgiving turkey.
I love leftover turkey. I wish I had some! After dividing up what remained of the meal yesterday, I have enough turkey left for about one and a half sandwiches today! That's OK, it was a great day and a FILLING meal...hope your day was also great!!

Happy Thanksgiving



Thanksgiving is such a wonderful day...families gathered together, great food, and most of all taking that special moment to give thanks. Though we should be giving thanks every day, and we do try but sometimes fail; I'm happy for this one day set for that purpose alone. Our blessings are many. Do your best not to get caught up in the preparation, but to enjoy the purpose. You don't want to miss the warmth, not from your oven, but from those you love.


I look forward to my family all gathering around, it is my greatest source of joy, but this year more then ever my love and prayers go out to our military. May they know that we who are safe at home hold them up in prayer, that we anticipate the day when they return, and that we are THANKFUL for them. God bless them all.


Happy Thanksgiving!
