~I just cleaned up my machines and replaced needles today. I'm getting better about this and seem to get it done every three months now. That's a huge improvement over my former, wait-till-the-needle-breaks-and-flies-at-your-face method. :crackup: Do you need to show your machines some love? ;) ~

first of let me start by saying that I live in Michigan. This past week, one of my co-workers father lost his job (after 25 years) for an auto supplier and another co-workers husband got let go of his job from an RV dealership. I knew it was hitting closer to home, but what REALLY hit home was...

A Holiday here. Veterans Day. Post office is closed.

I know recently we've had threads about the critters that have taken up residence in our houses, from possum to groundhog to squirrels, and although we did laugh about them we need to be CAREFUL! It seems rabies is more common this year and showing up in many different critters, even a ground...

Hi everyone - just wanted to send a friendly reminder to y'all to empty out those INBOXES .... I was trying to send some emails through the site but a few people have 'exceeded their mailbox quota'. Have a great day everyone! :wave:

I get e-mails from FlyLady and every month she has a reminder to "Check The Girls". I think this is a habit we should all get into. Here is a link to the Susan B. Komen site where there is a video about breast self-examination. The guys should also "Check the Boys" every month, too...

Don't forget to check your medicine cabinets for expired medicines and perscriptions. I was cleaning out my cabinet and found several different over-the-counter medications that expired in 2006! Into the garbage they go! Also don't forget to check your creams and makeup. Anything over a year...
