Why do we only
have parties
for each other
when one of us
gets married,
is pregnant,
or retires?
What would most of us
do without our sisters,
confidantes and shopping ,
lunching, and traveling
girls?
Let's celebrate
each other for
each other's sake!

TO MY GIRLFRIENDS!
If you get this twice
you know you have
more than one
girlfriend.
Be Happy!

PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO ALL OF

YOUR GIRLFRIENDS AND RETURN IT

TO THE FRIEND WHO SENT IT TO YOU!

It is good to be a woman:
1. We got off the Titanic first.
2. We can scare male bosses with the mysterious gynecological disorder excuses.
3. Taxis stop for us.
4. We don't look like a frog in a blender when dancing.
5. No fashion faux pas we make could ever rival the Speedo.
6. We don't have to pass gas to amuse ourselves.
7. If we forget to shave, no one has to know.
8. We can congratulate our teammate

without ever touching her rear end.
9. We never have to reach down every

so often to make sure our privates are still there.
10. We have the ability to dress ourselves.
11. We can talk to the opposite sex without

having to picture them naked.
12. If we marry someone 20 years younger,

we are aware that we will look like an idiot.
13. We will never regret piercing our ears.
14. There are times when chocolate

really can solve all our problems.
15. We can make comments about how

silly men are in their presence because

they aren't listening anyway.
Send this to all the bright women you know and make their day!

Subject: CRAZY BAPTISM
Three little boys were concerned because they
couldn't get anyone to play with them.

They decided it was because they had not been
baptized and didn't go to Sunday school.

So they went to the nearest church. Only the
janitor was there. One said, "We need to be

baptized because no one will come out and

play with us. Will you baptize us?"

"Sure," said the janitor. He took them into
the bathroom and dunked their
heads in the toilet bowl, one at a time. Then
he said, "Now go out and play."
When they got outside, dripping wet, one of
them asked, "What religion do you think we are?"
The oldest one said, "We're not Katlick,
because they pour the water on you.

We're not Bablist because they dunk all
of you in it.
We're not Methdiss because they

just sprinkle you."

The littlest one said, "Didn't you smell that
water?"
"Yes. What do you think that means?"

"That means we're Pisscopalians."

A Really Nice Friend Sent this

Slow Down Therapy

1. Slow down; God is still in heaven. You are not responsible for
doing it all yourself, right now.

2. Remember a happy, peaceful time in your past. Rest there. Each
moment has richness that takes a lifetime to savor.

3. Set your own pace. When someone is pushing you, it's OK to tell
   them they're pushing.

4. Take nothing for granted: watch water flow, the corn grow, the
   leaves blow, your neighbor mow.

5. Taste your food. God gives it to delight as well as to nourish.

6. Notice the sun and the moon as they rise and set. They are
   remarkable for their steady pattern of movement, not their speed.

7. Quit planning how you're going to use what you know, learn, or
   possess. God's gifts just are; be grateful and their purpose
   will be clear.

8. When you talk with someone, don't think about what you'll say
   next. Thoughts will spring up naturally if you let them.

9. Talk and play with children. It will bring out the unhurried
   little person inside you.

10. Create a place in your home...at your work...in your
   heart...where you can go for quiet and recollection.
   You deserve it.

11. Allow yourself time to be lazy and unproductive. Rest isn't
luxury; it's a necessity.

12. Listen to the wind blow. It carries a message of yesterday and
tomorrow-and now. NOW counts.

13. Rest on your laurels. They bring comfort whatever their size,
age, or condition.

14. Talk slower. Talk less. Don't talk. Communication isn't
measured by words.

15. Give yourself permission to be late sometimes. Life is for
living, not scheduling.

16. Listen to the song of a bird; the complete song. Music and
nature are gifts, but only if you are willing to receive them.

17. Take time just to think. Action is good and necessary, but it's
fruitful only if we muse, ponder, and mull.

18. Make time for play-the things you like to do. Whatever your age,
your inner child needs re-creation.

19. Watch and listen to the night sky. It speaks.

20. Listen to the words you speak, especially in prayer.

21. Learn to stand back and let others take their turn as
leaders.There will always be new opportunities for you to
step out in front again.

22. Divide big jobs into little jobs. If God took six days to create
the universe, can you hope to do any better?

23. When you find yourself rushing and anxious, stop. Ask yourself
"WHY?" you are rushing and anxious. The reasons may improve your
self-understanding.

24. Take time to read the Bible. Thoughtful reading is enriching
reading.

25. Direct your life with purposeful choices, not with speed
and efficiency. The best musician is one who plays with
_expression and meaning, not the one who finishes first.

26. Take a day off alone; make a retreat. You can learn from monks
   and hermits without becoming one.

27. Pet a furry friend. You will give and get the gift of now.

28. Work with your hands. It frees the mind.

29. Take time to wonder. Without wonder, life is merely existence.

30. Sit in the dark. It will teach you to see and hear, taste and
smell.

31. Once in a while, turn down the lights, the volume, the throttle,
the invitations. Less really can be more.

32. Let go. Nothing is usually the hardest thing to do - but often
it is the best.

33. Take a walk-but don't go anywhere. If you walk just to get
   somewhere, you sacrifice the walking.

34. Count your friends. If you have one, you are lucky. If you have
more, you are blessed. Bless them in return.

35. Count your blessings - one at a time and slowly

Good One !

I've always ordered beverages one simple way: "A Coke, please."

Lately, though, this hasn't seemed to work. Waitresses now often respond, "I'm sorry, we don't have Coke. We have Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, Mr. Pibb."

Tired of listening to the long list of soft drinks, I thought I'd make life easier. So one day I simply asked the snack bar clerk at a movie theater for a "dark, carbonated beverage."

The young man behind the counter chuckled and asked, "Sir, would you like a cylindrical plastic sucking device with that?"

WHAT IF GOD DIDN'T HAVE TIME ??
What if God couldn't take the time to bless us today because we couldn't take the time to thank Him yesterday?

What if God decided to stop leading us tomorrow because we didn't follow Him today?

What if we never saw another flower bloom because we grumbled when God sent the Rain?

What if God didn't walk with us today because we failed to recognize it as
His day?

What if, God took away the Bible tomorrow because we would not read it today?

What if, God took away His message because we failed to listen to the
messenger?

THINK ABOUT THIS ONE.........

What if, God didn't send His only begotten Son because He wanted us to be
prepared to pay the price for sin.

What if, the door of the church was closed because we did not open the door
of our heart?

What if, God stopped loving and caring for us because we failed to love and care for others?

What if, God would not hear us today because we would not listen to Him?

What if, God answered our prayers the way we answer His call to service?

What if, God met our needs the way we give Him our lives???

What if, We failed to send this message on??

THIS IS A SIMPLE TEST.......

If you love Jesus, send this to ten people and the person who sent it to you.

UPDATE CALENDAR REFERENCE INSTR......

Took 11 days to figure out what to do to link the calendar to the page #'s, so here's the "fix" (also proper way to do this again with each new page added):

Open and make the day's page. Publish when thru. Check browser address line and obtain the correct page id #. (November calendar HTML is working perfectly/ back-reference).

In between tags, enter the page id# and date.
