What a blessing this weekend has been!  I’ve had a wonderful 3 days of selling those ’bubbles’, and I want to thank you all so much for your comments, and your prayers!  God heard, and answered!  It did catch up with me today, though, and I’m feeling a bit tired, so I’ve mostly just been resting, and doing some visiting here in Xanga Land…or shall we call it Xangaville, or maybe even Xanga Town?!!  Xanga Town kind of has a ring to it don’t ya think!  We ought to take a vote on it!  Okay, just vote on your comment!

D.  Boy, can you tell I’m tired! Lol!! 

Now, I hava a little something exciting to share. Well, at least some valuable information that you might want to keep handy!  Have you ever had to call a company, any company for any reason, only to get those lovely ‘non-human’ recordings, then having to sit and wait, and wait, until you finally get to where you’re needing to be, and still there’s no real person to talk to?  Do you ever get frustrated and just want to hang up and forget about it all?  Well, I have the answer!  My sweet brother sent me a link that has just about every number and technique to use to by-pass those lovely ‘non-human’ recordings and will get you to a real human voice!  Let me know if this helps any of you!  I’ve used it a few times, and it works for those companies that I’ve had to call!  And, of course, it’s called, ‘Get Human’!

I hope you’ve all had a great weekend!  Did anyone see, or are you going to see the total lunar eclipse?  It hasn’t happened here yet, and I’m hoping to get up in a little while to see it!  I’d like to get some photos of it, too!  This one is to last about an hour and a half!  Ian and I saw one a while back, and we were fascinated!  It was really beautiful!  I hope I can wake up in time!   

And speaking of pictures, I have a photo hanging in BetsaflyGallery again this week!  The theme is ‘Hills & Mountains’, and you’ll find many beautiful photos of them there!  And, if any of you have a picture of either of those, you can e-mail it to Vanessa and she’ll display it in the gallery for all to see!  This one is not a contest…just a place to show others a favorite picture that you might have taken!  You’ll find all the information you need to send a photo to her on the above link!  Also, I was able to enter a photo in the contest at iliveinmycamera!  I can’t tell you which one is mine, of course, that wouldn’t be fair to anyone, so go take a peek at the entries, and vote for your favorite!  

Out of the mouth of babes….a little story I read today.

A father wanted to read a magazine but was being tugged on by his little girl, Shelby.  She wanted to know what the United States looked like.  Finally, he tore a sheet out of his new magazine on which was printed the map of the country.  Cutting out all of the states, he gave it to Shelby, and said,

“Go into the other room and see if you can put this together.  This will show you our whole country today.”  After a few minutes, Shelby returned and handed him the map correctly fitted together.  The father was surprised and asked how she had finished so quickly.

“Oh, it was easy,” she said, “on the other side of the paper is a picture of Jesus.  When I got all of Jesus back where He belonged, then our country just came together.”   

The Lord is faithful and wanting to do a mighty work in each of us.
He is so patient and tenderhearted.
“It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.”  (Lamentations 3:22-23)

You all have a terrific Tuesday!  I’m going out to see the moon before I go to sleep!  The night is clear, and it’s bright and beautiful right now!  I love nights like this! 

Hugs,
