Here is a simple chart that I found. We used to learn to sew in school many moons ago. When my kids were little I took some loosely woven fabric (like burlap) a large embroidery needle that was rather blunt on the end, large buttons and showed them how to stitch the button on. It was great for small motor Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04950654895507861577noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18176708.post-3034959238408961252015-08-06T21:38:00.000-05:002016-08-28T20:09:14.239-05:00Do you remember these?
I had every flavor!
I loved them... they were glossy and tasted so yummy.
They reissued them years later, not as good as the old formula, They had plastic tubes instead of glass, the tube leaked and made a huge mess.
I'll bet there are more than a few older guys that remember the kissing girls that were wearing these kissing potions in the 70's.....

I borrowed this from friends to post something that they are thankful for each day! I have so many people and pets that I am so thankful for, some are not in my life right now because of death-crossing over, or for unknown reasons. I would always chose my children first on my list of the things I am the most thankful for...But, this is a list to write daily.

Ok, I relaxed my arm and did not tense up before getting my flu shot.....This one hurt! My arm is still sore and it was hard to sleep on it last night.
I had to wait a few weeks to get my shot because I caught the flu and ran fever. The only upside to the flu was that I lost a few pounds! Downside, I missed Physical Therapy and had to extend it.

Isn't it amazing how we see things.....
If we are single, we see only couples around us. If we are longing to have children, we notice every baby around us. If our adult kids are distant, we see every mother/daughter shopping and laughing every where we go. It is hard to remember that how we perceive these images is totally biased by our thoughts and feelings.

With water too precious to waste ...Don't forget to check your water meter outside your house every once and a while. Makes sure the dishwasher or ice maker isn't running or anyone using water at the time.
Even the tiniest leak will show water usage (ours has a tiny little red triangle that moves back and forth).
