My baby

First day home :)

Phoebe loves blankets

older and oh so wiser


So I wanted to talk about being thankful. I am Thankful for my Phoebe. I know some people may think that she is just a dog, but she came to me at 12 weeks and we are totall in synch with eachother and who dosent love a dog that loves to be loved :)
The other day I was getting out the christmas decorations and found her winter coat from her first winter. It is 1/3 the size of her current one :( not going to lie it made me a little sad.
So today (and everyday) I am thankful for my fur baby and you ;)

I really found this to be very interesting. I hope you do too!




It's been said that God first separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, planted a garden, made animals and fish... All before making a human. He made and provided what we'd need before we were born. These are best & more powerful when eaten raw. We're such slow learners...





God left us a great clue as to what foods help what part of our body!



God's Pharmacy! Amazing!









A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye... And YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.







A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All of the research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and blood food.







Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.







A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.







Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys.





Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.







Avocadoes, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents c ervical cancers. And how profound is this? It takes exactly nine (9) months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).





Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of male sperm and increase the numbers of Sperm as well to overcome male sterility.





Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics.





Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries





Oranges, Grapefruits, and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.





Onions look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion, Garlic, also helps eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.

Changes

I am loving the new options that blogger has offered and finally have a background that I feel fits my personality. Ha Who knew!
SO I have been a awful blogger and for my 3 followers out there I apologize! My camera is busted and I haven't been inspired to write anything.
Nothing big for tonight but I have some posts up my selves. But first ...

What inspires you?
What makes you feel grounded?

to swap or not to swap that is the question

SO I am curious I have done swaps in the past and they have been fine, but this summer I have done 2 and both have been bad experience's. The first one I never heard back from my swap partner and then finally did through the person hosting the swap and got her address. I mailed a awesome package but then never got one in return. The next swap that I did I got my package but mine was a little late getting out because of one of the things that i ordered was late getting to me. Got a email today from the host er saying that i moved my blog and would never be able to swap in this town again. I am totally confused. Has anyone ever had experience's like this? Is this normal? I never said anything when i didn't get the first package because i didn't want to make anyone feel bad. Should I have?  I also did a book swap and got a email that people were over swaping. blurgh

needed to hear this today

The key to choosing where to be is choosing somewhere where YOU WILL BE HAPPY, where YOU CAN FEEL LIKE YOU’RE PROGRESSING, and somewhere where you WANT TO BE and feel like you SHOULD BE

Come thou fount

Today was exzactly the Sunday that I needed. This morning I had a few struggles. Time management. Satan and his love of working on my self esteem. Frustration. When I got to church though I was provided with a peace and reverence that He knew what I needed. HF knew more than i did. He always does. Before I left that house things were not going right and I said a simple prayer of Please help. I asked and he provided and I am grateful. Today was the first time that our ward was doing a linger longer/put lick of sorts and I was in charge. I tend to obsess, what could go wrong what do I need to do etc. I was so humbled and peaceful after sacrament that I didn't want to loose that feeling. I was then given a gift. My friend asked if I wanted to go home with her while she fed her baby and got what she was bringing for the pot luck. My friend is moving soon and I was grateful for the opportunity to spend time with her. I know that you might be thinking that is the opposite of keeping the spirit. Well, after a lovely talk on Temple attendance and a beautiful musical number talking with a Friend about the blessings of the temple and the blessings we are able to receive was just what I needed. Going back to the chapel I felt edified and spiritually nourished. I felt reminded of what I needed to do. What I already knew but somehow lost sight of. The linger longer/pot luck was a hit. I was humbled at the amount of hands who were willing to help. I was reminded that I was not doing this alone. I was actulally helping everyone else.
