Four Day Work Week and Our Economy

Our present economic situation is like nothing most of us have seen in our life time. We have gas and energy concerns....high cost and shortage. Businesses laying off employees. Obvious awnser...a manditory 4 day work week. Seem silly? Think about it. If we all worked 4 10 hour days, businesses would have the energy savings of 1 day a week. Wonder how many jobs could be saved? Think about if school buses did not run one day a week, the gas and financial savings would save alot of teaching jobs and pay for alot of teaching supplies.

Wouldn't it be great to have Friday declared as "family day"? Moms, Dads, children spending time together. Look at our First Family, the dog, the garden, a wholesome all America family. It is obvious they enjoy being together. Could it be possilbe they are setting the tone, reminding us of what is really important?

Sound to me like everyone would win. Wonder why we are not hearing any discussion about this?

One Of My Favorite Things

I love the "all you" magazine. I have found some great shortcuts, ideas, and coupons. I just used a Rimmel free mascara coupon from this magazine. The buy one get one free's are great (if the price hasn't been marked up to absorb the cost of the free one) but this was really free. I did not have to purchase anything. That was fun, to walk into a store and get something free.....legally. The mascara is "Sexy Curves".

All Those Things We Love

My granddaugther is three and she loves pink. Everytime she sees something pink she says "my favorite color is pink". I have two grandchildren, one boy and one girl. Have you noticed that little boys only a few months into their little lives are drawn to cars,trucks,and all the things little boys love. Little girls only a few months into their little lives are drawn to baby dolls,handbags, and all the things little girls love.

Talk About Multitasking......

Easter Sunday we started the day at church. The service started with the choir standing at the back of the church singing "Were You There When They Crucified My Lord". The choir ending the song as they were taking their places in the choir loft. My husband Charlie and the choir sang He's Alive. Followed by Pastor JT sharing a message titled From Grief to Gladness. He was preaching from John chapter 20: 20 where Jesus appeared to the disciples after His resurrection. It was His words and His presence that released them from their guilt and grief. The message was so personal that He delivered it to the disciples Himself. Jesus actions were comforting and soothing instead of condemning them. He shifted their focus from their failures to His victories.

As I was sitting taking in every word I couldn't help but wonder if others were seeing and hearing what I was.....The choir told the story of what He did for us through song followed by Pastor JT sharing with us who Jesus is....loving, forgiving, comforting, soothing, He is able, He is truth, He is peace.

What a beautiful picture was illustrated for us Eastor Sunday morning of not only what Jesus did for us, but who He is to us...His children.

Massage Therapy

One of the things I first noticed about the man I feel in love with was his love for helping people with his hands and the joy it brings him. It might be changing a light bulb for an elderly neighbor, helping a friend fix or build something, stopping to help a stanger he sees in need of help. He notices the needs of others when the rest of us are too busy with our own life.

At the age of 54, he returned to school to become a licensed massage therapist. Many think of massage therapy as a luxury. Go to a spa, get a full body massage to treat yourself. Massage therapy is so much more than that. My husband works on problem areas....stiffness, chronic pain, etc.

You know I mentioned earlier that I love anything that mulitask, be it beauty products, health products, or services. Well massage therapy is one of those multi taskers I love. Visit my husbands blog for a list of those benefits at chazmassagetherapy.blogspot.com
