Sick

It started in the night last Saturday, I started coughing off an on. I thought well I guess I must be catching a cold or getting the flu. By Sunday morning it was there, sore throat, sinus congestion and more coughing. Here it is Tuesday and I'm missing work because of this. I have not ever missed a day of work because of sickness. I may be missing another day tomorrow. It's better for me to stay home another day then to get someone sick.

Envelope Prints

With many type businesses there is a lot of important marketing mail going out. Maybe not only marketing information but other types of important documents. A lot of times a standard size envelope won't work in these cases so it's wise to plan ahead and have a good envelope printer make what the business needs. envelope prints are nice to have and it's the first thing people will see when receiving these documents in the mail.

Thanksgiving Day

I can't believe it is Thanksgiving Day on this Thursday! We have such mild weather here in our state and it sure doesn't feel like that time of the year. I have to work that day so my family won't be able to celebrate together this year. On Friday we plan to go to our nephew's place and gather with other family members to eat a good meal and fellowship. It won't be the traditional turkey and mashed potatoes but that's ok. It will still be fun to be with family that we love. I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!

Nurses Scrubs

I am not a nurse but where I work we are required to wear uniforms or nurses scrubs. About a year and a half ago we were all wearing the same colored tops and white pants then we persuaded our boss to let us buy different styles and colors of nurses scrub tops. We all have had so much fun buying different ones for holidays and seasons. The people we work for and serve enjoy it too. It's more fun to get up in the morning and have a variety of tops and pants to choose from.

Veterans

Today is Veterans day and I am so grateful for all the people who have served our country. In church today our pastor asked veterans to stand up and it was so cool to see how many stood up and of all ages. I think about my dad today because he served in Germany. I am proud of him for his service.

Devotion

Every morning I try and have devotions. I have a favorite book that I love reading out of and it's called Jesus Calling by Sarah Young. I recently read a devotion that really hit home to me. There has been a lot going on in our lives this summer and fall and I tend to worry and complain when things don't go the way I wish they would. So I opened this book one morning and began reading it. I felt as though the Lord was sitting across the table from me and speaking this directly to me. This is what it said: You have been on a long, uphill journey, and your energy is almost spent. Though you have faltered at times, you have not let go of My hand. I am pleased with your desire to stay close to Me. There is one thing, however, that displeases Me: your tendency to complain. You may talk to Me as much as you like about the difficulty of the path we are following. I understand better than anyone else the stresses and strains that have afflicted you. You can ventilate safely to Me, because talking with Me tempers your thoughts and helps you see things from My perspective.. Complaining to others is another matter altogether. It opens the door to deadly sins such as self-pity and rage. Whenever you are tempted to grumble, come to Me and talk it out. As you open up to Me, I will put My thoughts in your mind and My song in your heart. Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like starts in the universe. - Philippians 2:14-15

Halloween

Halloween is not too far away. I hear of coworkers talking about the costumes their grandchildren are planning to wear and even some adults I know are planning their own costumes. It can be a fun time if you leave all the evil, devilish, scary stuff out of it. Seeing children out in their cute costumes having a good time collecting candy and goodies is what is fun to see. I loved it when our boys were young and we would take them out. They had the best time and also trying to plan costumes out of what we had around the house was always interesting but they turned out pretty cute. I may have to sit by my front door this year and hand out treats to all the kids. I haven't done that for a few years. We will see.
