Top Ten Questions

Ten questions waiting to be answered:

  1. How should we celebrate Valentine's Day this year or should we just skip it?
  2. How can I get my house organized without any effort?
  3. Should I prepare a book proposal and send it to an editor?
  4. Should we buy property in Poland and build or just keep renting this cold house?

When I lived in the Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho, we installed a ski rack on the entry wall. We installed 1.5"X3" dowels at intervals. We installed vinyl floorcovering on the wall to protect it, and we hung up all of our boots, gloves, scarves, etc. They got dry, didn't take up any floorspace and they were handy going out or coming in. If you don't have much width, you could still stagger the dowels up and down the wall. Hope this helps with one of your questions. I can't help you with the stinky socks!

6. You can't unless you are way smarter than me.

You're absolutely right, Lez. I couldn't think of any fresh inspiration. Esther moved to Xanga. You can try this link http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=Esther_lynn . Hope it works. Thanks all for your suggestions. I'll have to try some of them.

I Hate Mending

There! That makes me feel better! I... ...detest ...abhor ...despise mending. I'm sure those of you who are virtuous mothers are shaking their heads and wondering what is the matter with me. I don't know where I missed it, but the pile of mending in my sewing center makes me cringe with hatred. Why do I wait until all of Allison's dresses are missing a button before I finally, grudgingly get out my needle and thread? Why does a dress hang for two years in my closet with chopped off sleeves that are only waiting for one seam? Why do John's Sunday pants lay over my bedroom chair for weeks before I finally get around to sewing the loophole back on? I've always hated repairing clothes. When I learned to sew and sewed my sleeve in upside down, I would have rather started all over than to tear out the one little seam. Mending is such a tedious chore. But today, when I finally got around to sewing on six buttons on six dresses, sewing up a hole in the back of another, and...

My God, My Elohim

 Thoughts on Genesis 1-3 My God, Elohim, Creator of heaven and earth, and Creator of me. This is a personal reminder of his great plan for me.  We are living symbols on earth of His own self. He put within us the "breath of life." Something only He can give. The first covenant was broken by man, but praise be to my Creator, he provided a second covenant to bring us back to Him! Jesus paid the blood atonement for my sins and conquered death forever. Though our bodies die and decay, the Lord, my God will again plant the tree of life (Rev. 22:2) and we can once again experience an Eden (delight, a land of happiness) when we die and go to be with our Creator, our Redeemer, our Lord. The path of the just is as a shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. -Prov. 4:18
