My New Years Wish......

MY NEW YEAR'S WISH FOR YOU.

'Father, I ask You to bless my children, grandchildren, friends, relatives, blog followers and email

buddies reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of your love and power. Holy Spirit,

I ask You to minister to their spirit this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your

peace and mercy. I ask that we all strive to bring peace, prosperity and care to this

beautiful planet of ours. We all need to work together to live in harmony, health and love. We all

need to believe in ourselves and what our efforts can accomplish to make this a better world.

Where there is self doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace,

In Jesus' precious name.

Amen.'

Cool Green Idea for those who don't like leaf blowers

I personally don't mind raking the leaves in the fall. It's good exercise and a gratifying experience seeing the big pile after a job well done. If you have kids it's even more FUN to watch them take the leaf pile plunge. If you don't like blowers and don't mind raking, click on the link below. HAPPY HOLIDAYS.

FOR THE ANIMAL LOVER-
This is pretty simple... Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of getting free food donated every day to abused and neglected animals..

It takes less than a minute (How about 20 seconds) to go to their site and click on the purple box 'fund food for animals' for free. This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising.

Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

If you're driving on the NJ tolls roads-bring some extra $$

For anyone that commutes to and from work on the GSP or Turnpike, tolls are going up as of Monday. In this economy, times are tough. It's really hard to keep money in your pocket these days. Stay well and drive safely.

Cleaners, what to look for.

I find the Green Guide as a valuable source for learning more about being green, they cover just about every topic that affects us and our planet. In staying consistent with my blog and my concerns about home, safety and Real Estate. I wanted to share the article below for anyone wanting to know more about cleaners, labels and certifications on cleaners. Sometimes the best clean you can get is with some good elbow grease and some soapy water. Baking soda is also not a bad option either. I also highly recommend Melaleuca cleaners. I use them all the time. They work, the don't use harsh chemicals and some of them smell pretty good. Read on and be Green.......
