Friday Funnies ~ Thanksgiving Dinner Conversations



Suggestions to Liven Up Thanksgiving Dinner


1. Load your plate up high; take it to the kitchen, toss it all in the blender and take your "shake" back to the table. Announce that it's the new Thanksgiving Weight Loss Shake.

2. When everyone says, in turn, what they are thankful for, say, "I'm thankful I didn't get caught," and refuse to say anything more.

3. Bring a date that only talks about the tragic and abusive conditions known to exist at turkey farms.

4. During mid-meal, turn to Mom and say, "See mom, I told you they wouldn't notice that the turkey was past the expiration date. You were worried for nothing."

A Memorial Day Reflection

  Memorial Day is always noteworthy for me and my girls.  Next Thursday marks the third year of missing their father, my husband. So many thoughts  run through my mind.  The journey of loss takes on various emotions.  The strongest feeling, at first, was emptiness.  In a split second, I would forget he departed forever.  I imagined things I needed to talk to him about when he got back home.  My mind is realistic now.  He's not coming back.  There will be no more times of sitting on the porch swing together on the front deck staring at the moon and the stars.  He would tell me all he knew about the majestic night sky. I have so much I wish I could tell him, like the excitement of seeing our oldest grandchild make a decision to follow Jesus and get baptized on Mother's Day!  And our little Amy, 11 years old, I wish he could have seen her on stage receiving her induction to the National Honor Society. Our daughters have their own ...

Changing it a Bit

I learned years ago in Marriage Encounter that I need to find creative ways to keep love alive.  Avoid the boring status quo and experiment with new ways of doing things.  The principle of changing it a bit can be applied to any relationship, really.  Healthy friendship is a gift but doesn’t just fall in my lap.   I have to work at that too and think of ways to enjoy life together with those special friends. I’ve changed some things around the house recently to spice up things.  When I took down Christmas decorations, I placed my plants in different rooms and rearranged the bookcase to give the living room a different look. I drank my coffee black.  Ugh, that did not work! I knew months ago the “read through Bible” plan I especially like and have used off and on through the years would not suffice this year and found a new way to pray and study in the morning.  How refreshing to wake up to a new way of saying hello to God!...

Got My Smile Back in Los Algodones

Leave it to a crisis to get us to take action!   That’s what happened when my husband, Tom, chipped a front tooth.   He spent $1100 several years ago for a wire partial he hates to insert, but at least it covered an empty space where a front tooth once was.   And now with this chipped front tooth, it was time to consider our options.   Los Algodones, Mexico grabbed our attention. The first thing we did was pray for discernment.   Then we began a search online.   RV Forums and bloggers are extremely helpful.   As we read about others' experiences with dentists, we gained confidence.   We talked to people in our church that have their dental work done in Mexico and weighed the facts.   Yes, we decided to go to Los Algodones.   Our passport cards took four weeks to process.   During this wait, we pursued a list of dentists we found with the best reviews.   We sent out emails with Tom’s most current X-rays att...
