Oh, Sonja, you are so much fun!    Well, if Pat took time to put rollers in her hair, she is ahead of me!

Congratulations, Marilyn!!!!  You are a super poster!!  And we are so glad you are here!  I notice Sonja is gaining on you.......

I am off to run some errands.  Darrel is working out of town today, so it's a good day for me to get such things done.  See you later!

Suzanne, glad you enjoyed that!  

COFFEE TIME at the AVON ZOO

Oh, my!  $685.00 worth of products either Back Ordered or No Longer Available!!!  Oh, me... Oh, my!

QuoteI love taking hair bands and playing war with my boys.  Talk about fun!

I love it Sonja!!  I used to do that with my two boys!  HAHAHA!

Marilyn, I COULD be a booming business but I have so many Senior Citizens that I give them their products at almost my cost and I buy my own grandchildren their Christmas gifts from Avon so I don't really see much profit in the bank!  


I love you![/size][/b][/color]

GRAPHICS

Here's just a little reminder...

I love the little graphics and smilies, etc.  BUT make sure that you have them on your own webspace unless you have explicit permission to link to someone else's webspace.

Several years ago and again just recently, we had a terrible happening on SeniorNet.  People were linking to cute little graphics from other sites.  One site had software installed on their site that changed these little neat graphics into porn graphics--very explicit porn graphics--after a certain time had elapsed and it was just horrible.  

You see when linking is done, we are using that other person's bandwidth that they are paying for.

So, this is just a reminder.  

I haven't any reason at all for saying this other than I love them and hope that all of you are putting them on your own webspace unless you have permission.

My little smilies, for instance, all have URLs of some place that I don't even know about but I paid for the software to use them.  

Anyway, carry on and make this the best place on the net where Christians can gather!


I appreciate you all so much.  

Now will you please come and help me pack this Avon order???  I'll put a fresh pot of coffee on!

CONGRATULATIONS MARYLIN
WITH YOUR 2500 POST  GREAT WORK

WELCOME HOME MARGIT
I HAVE MISSED YOU
LOVE RIA

Oh, how nice to see you all again.

Talk about "warm and fuzzy feelings" --that's what I get here.

I came by this week with such limited time; I just needed the strength in numbers of the great Christian love I found here.

You see, my neighbor in Penna. passed away last week.

A fabulous gentleman; him and his wife are such great Christians.  We know that he is in a better place; but he is
solely missed.

Got up last Saturday morning, said his morning prayers, had something to eat and went in his friends car to go to the lumber store.

His friend looked over and saw him sleeping and around ten
minutes later, tried to wake him.  But he had passed away.

We, neighbors and family , know that this is the most peaceful way to go but he is solely missed.

Just got back from visiting his new 1 day old grandchild.

That is what is keeping his wife going stronger and stronger each day--you see the little one is quite ill and needs lots of prayers.

So please keep this family in your prayers.

Going to visit around the other sites.

Love in Christ,
Joyce

Well, I'm so tired, I'd like to go to bed!  LOL

Nice to see you Joyce but I'm so sorry about your friends death.  That's so sad to hear about.


Here's our gallery of smilies...

http://christianphotographers.com/forum/smi/

Have a look at them.  When you find something you want to put on CP, RIGHT click on the URL or COPY and PASTE the URL into the posting box here and put the IMAGE tags before and following the URL.

It will look like this... (BUT with no spaces)

If you find some cute animations that you'd like to post on here but you don't have your own webspace, please send them to either Larry or I and we'll upload them for you to our server.

We'd love to see some cute ones here.

HAHAHAHAHA!!! That is me alright.  hehehe...weee...  

Joyce, I am so sorry to hear about your friend.  I will keep the family and you in my prayers.  

LOL Sonja, I saw that and immediately thought of you!


Hey, Everyone!

TurboTech has posted the cutest photo!  Y'all must see it!

Good point, Pat.  If you are linking to a site (especially if you JUST link to the image) that you are not paying money for, you are running a risk of them changing the image at any time.  Even some so called "free" sites have trial periods that expire, or they change the links every so often.  We all need to be very careful that we're not potentially placing something on CP that we would all be ashamed of.  

Contrary to the way it was a few years back, very little on the Internet is actually free.  Advertising on the net has been found to be very difficult, and advertisers are continually searching for new ways to invade.  

Hope this makes sense.  It sounds really rambly and confusing to me, but maybe I can clear it up if someone asks questions...

Hey!  I'm over 200 posts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess that's not much of an accomplishment, is it, Marilyn???

YEA Nard.  Does this mean we get to eat out tonight -- to celebrate??

Internet is crazy today at work.  Supposed to be a T1 line but is being slower than the dial up at home.
 

Ugh.

More later

Marilyn, well done lass !!


Pat , thanks for welcoming Margit home,
boy did my eyes light up when she came through the door at the airport!

Thank you Ria, may God bless your soup.



Love to all of you.

This verse means so much to me.  Thank you, Janet!  Love you!

Rachelle~How is the shopping coming along?  Got any gifts that say Soni on the tag?    How are all those youngsters doing?  I miss seeing your posts.

Pat~thanks for the cool link to all your special smilies.  How generious of you.


Now I can party in style! Wooo hooo...

Enough playing around!

to all!

Hello and a good evening, afternoon to some of you.

Want to take a moment to thank you for the warm welcome home and for taking such good care of my husband. Even the "soup was on", some of you went directly to a man's heart, the route through his stomach. That's expertise.

Mom is back out of the hospital, ambulatory and slowly recovering. Daughter is back on her way to California, almost there....God's speed to both.

Oh, by the way, I caught the spider, that's all that got done for now. Tomorrow it's the vacuuming and dusting, yet to be done.  .
Instead of doing that, hubby went and placed flowers all through the house and set a stuffed pup on top of my computer with a Welcome Card.

Well, wouldn't do without him, dust and all - and neither without you, there is much loving going about and now it's my turn to return a little.

Thank you.
God bless.

Love,

Margit

OK Everyone...  

Seriously though, Margit, we're happy you are back but sorry that your mother isn't well.  Glad that she is recovering.  I'm glad you got to see your daughter too.  

Just a quick hello.  I'm off and running again.  Grocery shopping, then a quick stop to visit with my father (and give him a treat that my girlfriend made for my parents on Saturday) then home to get my Christmas Cards written.  I've only had them in the house for over two weeks now.  

Have a good evening everyone.

Vivian and I have been in Spokane Washington since early morning 07:30, and just arrived home 5;10pm.

I didn't want to say anything before now as I didn't know what was wrong, and I still don't as yet.  I've been having chest pains and pressure for over two weeks and kinda put it off.  My cardiologist scheduled me for a "Thalium (nuclear imaging of my heart arteries) treadmil" test today.  Further examination and review of the test necessitates I have an angiogram (Invasive probe of the heart arteries).  I told my cardiologist I really appreciated his scheduling te "Thalium" testing because this is what saved my life the first time when I had a triple bypass.  There is a chance (But not positive at this time) that I may have a blocked artery(s).  Sooooooo.  I now wait for the scheduling.  Now please hear this.........Our Lord is in charge, and only He knows the physical outcome at this time.  I know, and you know the ultimate outcome.  Who knows, it may not be anything at all.  

Oh, my goodness, Lee!  I'm so sorry.  Larry and Papa John and several others on here will know exactly how you are feeling.  I only know how I felt when Jack went through all of this.  

I definitely will be praying for you in the coming days, Lee.

Yes, it's wonderful to realize that our God is in complete control.

Thanks for letting us all know.

Lee:  Listen here young man  you better start taking care of yourself. You have my prayers as well.

Lee, Darrel had a stent placement done almost two years ago, and for two months before that, he had such awful attacks of pain!  That was the only time I ever saw him cry, other than when his Dad passed away.  So I am very glad you are getting checked out, and I hope there isn't a serious problem.

You guys are all so fun!  I love the little graphics, even though I have no idea how to do them.  I will just sit and appreciate yours!  (Until I have time to learn more.)

I am about ready for Christmas!!  I have spent the day decorating, and wrapping gifts, what I have bought.  I put up three Christmas trees and got out a lot of things I hadn't gotten out in several years, so the house looks very festive!    When can y'all come over?  We can have a party here, everybody bring FOOD.    Tomorrow, I hope I remember to call my ISP and find out about getting photos deleted from my webspace, so I can upload and post some more.

Margit---welcome home!  And Chris, how sweet of you to make her homecoming so special.  I'll bet she keeps you!

I called Beth's doctor--again!  This time the girl told me that he was at that time getting the information ready so she could get it into the mail for us TODAY.  I hope so, hope it wasn't another run-around.  I am a pretty patient person, but really!  That was very sorry service from a doctor.

With humility of mind let each of you regard one another as more important than himself; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.  Phillipians 2:3,4

It is late and Pat hasn't shut the door yet.  Strange!?

I just got back from dance.  I was so tired I barely made it through the 2 hours.  

Lee, you are in my prayers!  I hope it is all heartburn.

Janet, glad to hear you are getting the paper work in the mail finally.  God is good!  I would love to come over tomorrow as long as you have some peach pie ready with icecream.  

I am heading to bed. Night all!

Love Soni

God bless you all.............

I read all the posts for today and there are far too many to respond to.  It's very encouraging to come into NEM and start the day with Pat's Devotionals and sites to visit.  I'll be taking some photos of our town soon and will send them off to Pat.  The joking and all-around fun you share with each other makes an old duck laugh.  Sometimes I feel I'm visiting a "Funny Farm" .

On our return from Spokane today we stopped by the hospital in Coeur 'd Alene to visit Mary Shackelford.  Perhaps you might remember her as I recently sent photos of her baptism for posting by Pat.  Mary's cancer has matasticized (sp) and I fear she won't be with us very long.  She's skin and bones and they are feeding her by tube.  The wonderful thing about new Christians is their enthusiasm for the Lord.  She said she isn't quite sure why the Lord did this to her.  I stopped her and we had a long discussion on our Lord's not giving her cancer, and that He loves her so very much that he has allowed it, and that neither she nor I are our loving God, but He knows why, and has a purpose for this and she will positively learn soon why He has allowed it.  I reminded her that her witness to not only her friends, but to all who come to see her, plus the doctors and nursing staff are all recipients of her witness and love for the Lord.  We spoke at length about heaven and the purpose of Jesus' dying for us.  She has a radient look when she speaks of Jesus and says she is ready, and is looking forward to being with the Him.  We had a time of prayer, and as I walked down the hallway from her room, it was I who now had an exhilarating feeling about going home.  You see, Mary was a witness to me also.

Well, I'm late tonight but I've had such a busy day and it looks as if there's another like today, tomorrow!

Lee, I was very touched by your post and your telling us of visiting your friend.  We so enjoyed seeing her getting baptised not that long ago and it's so sad to have to say "Farewell".

Thanks for sharing that with us.

Also, thanks for your kind comments about our site here.  I'm so glad that you're enjoying it.

Now, it's time to lock the door and open a new one...
