Getting the best…
- by Jo
Buster and I recently had to go to our insurance agent and get some new auto insurance quotes because we sold one of our vehicles and lost our multi-car policy. We wanted to make sure we couldn’t get a better deal through another company. We have our home and truck insured by the same company because we ended up paying like $10 more but got a life insurance policy on each of us and a little better coverage on our home by switching to another company!! How awesome is that?

Total Randomness…

To take a phrase from a new friend of mine…
I’ll give 1,000,000 (totally useless) points to the first person to guess what I am talking about in the next few sentences…
- You can get them in many shapes and sizes…
- You can them illuminated or non-illuminated…
- Full size or mini…
- Appliance or Surf N’ Turf…
Anyone? Anyone?? Anyone???
I’m talking about rocker switches people!! Anyone care to guess what those are?? Come on, all you smarties out there…leave your guesses in the comments ( no cheating!!)

The Ultimate Gift…
- by Jo
If you could have God’s promise that YOU would go right to HEAVEN when you die, would you take it??
Let me show YOU how YOU can have This Promise!!
ALL HAVE SINNED
ROMANS 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no not one.
ROMANS 3:23 For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God.
GOD’S PRICE ON SIN
ROMANS 6:23 A For the wages of sin is death.
THERE ARE TWO DEATHS
REVELATION 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
OUR WAY OUT
ROMANS 5:8-9 But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
GOD’S PERSONAL PROMISE
ROMANS 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Take God at his word and claim His promise for your salvation. Bow you head right now and sincerely ask Jesus Christ to forgive your sins and to save your soul. Saying a prayer does not save you!! You must believe what the Bible says and mean it in your heart to be saved!!!
ROMANS 10:9-11 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture sayeth, Whosoever believeth on Him shall not be ashamed.
Once you are eternally saved, you are always eternally saved…
HEBREWS 13:5B…for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
If you have read this and accepted Christ as your personal Savior, CONGRATULATIONS on getting that taken care of, you’ll be so glad you did!! Please leave your name in a comment so that I can pray for you !!! And also find yourself a good, Bible (King James) preaching Church where you can grow in your faith!!
God Bless!!
If you don’t need this message, but know someone who does, feel free to link them to this or just tell them about the blog post!! It is important that every person get this taken care BEFORE it is too late. We often think we have all the time in the world, what’s the rush?? My son was killed in an auto-accident five years ago (November 5, 2004) at the age of 10! We have no guarantee of how long we have on this earth, we need to spread the word!! Thankfully, Eli saw his need for salvation and accepted Christ as his Savior at the age of 7, just three short years before he died.
Thanks for stopping by, see you soon!!

**Put cooled chicken pieces into a large bowl. Add spinach , onion, cheese, garlic, soup and salt. Mix well. Place crescent rolls on GREASED cookie sheet, leaving triangles of dough attached to each other. Pinch seams of dough together to make one large rectangle of dough. Place chicken mixture down the center of the rectangle of dough, leaving a margin of dough on either side of mixture. Cut with a knife from the chicken mixture out to the edge of the rectangle on either side, making strips that are still attached to the dough underneath the chicken mixture.
**Fold up ends of dough up onto the chicken mixture. Then , overlap the strips over the entire length of chicken mixture for a criss-cross effect. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. Let rest 5-10 minutes before cutting to serve.

Strange…
- by Jo
It’s a strange thing. I almost never have a meal without breaking out in a rash on my hands. Just my hands. It’s red bumps that itch, hives, I believe. But I don’t get them everywhere, just on my hands. I don’t know what causes them and in order to find out I would have to cut out all foods, and gradually eat like on thing at a time to find out which foods cause the reaction. Like I want to do that just to get some allergy relief! Although, it can be irritating, maybe I will do it????

Think Warm Thoughts! :)
- by Jo
I remember when I was a kid, it was fairly common to have an electric blanket on your bed to keep you warm in the winter. I haven’t seen one in a really long time. Does anyone use them anymore? Sometimes I think it would be nice to have one to turn on about 10 minutes before I go to bed, just to take the chill off…then turn it off, after I climb in so I don’t sweat to death!!

HELP!!!!
- by Jo
I need your help today folks, for real. I have a friend who REALLY needs to get her husband into a good drug rehab program. The problem is, I am not sure if they have insurance and whether or not their insurance would cover this. And from what I hear, these programs aren’t cheap. Does anyone know if there are any programs out there for people who don’t have insurance or lots of money? AND also, are there any that you can be put in if you don’t necessarily want to go??? Please leave me comments so I can get the info back to my friend!! Thanks, in advance for all your help!!

Hormone Replacement For Men??????
- by Jo
I have never in all of my 34 years ever heard of this. When I had my hysterectomy a few years back, they told me all about Hormone Replacement Therapy, but I didn’t know men could use it. What is it, like a testosterone booster?? That’s the only thing I can think of that a guy would need. I’m sure they have small amounts of other hormones, but I guess I really don’t know that much about it…Things that make you say HHHmmm??
