My Christmas Mail Crowds Out the Rest

Yep. It is happening again. I had managed to draft and keep adding to my annual Christmas letter over a number of Sunday evenings, but now is time to print and address - and as I said last week, I usually try to add some personal notes too. With about 80 in my mailing list I saw on Sunday already that I better put off all my other December agenda items until after Christmas. I've only got these two weeks to get my mail out.

What with my chiropractor appointments and other errands, I feel the presure building up. So yesterday I resigned myself to putting my business projects on hold for a couple of weeks. Maybe even into January.

I think I have found and decided on a shopping cart for selling Tom's models, but that will mean an hour or two for installing, then loading the 200 models I have ready into the system, and that could take many hours yet.

There were nine items on my December agenda, but by post-poning about six of them I will now throw myself into getting the letters and my own designed little cards ready for mailing.

If you are on my mailing list for the RoseBouquet, you will get a download link next week. I will include a page of images so that if you want one/some of my laminated cards, you can let me know and I'll prepare them for mailing.

I'm assuming you have a lot of extras happening this month, or needing to be done by Christmas, so I wish you the wisdom and grace to know what you can put off and what must really have top priority and GET DONE! Then I pray that you'll have time to really sit back and think about our Saviour and delight in Him.

As I said last week in the Tips & Solutions - I highly recommend listening to https://bbnradio.org online. They are playing nothing but Christmas carols and hymns for the whole month. I find that the air in my house is full of CHRISTMAS even though the only decoration I have up is this pointsetta that was given to me. (Only it has some leaves and petals drying up and falling off).

Oh yes, and just yesterday I started inviting a few for a Christmas feast with me on Christmas Day. I will keep the number low, so that we don't break any COVID limitations. I trust we "singles" will enjoy some family pleasures together.

May that be true for you and yours too!

Do You Have Balance Problems?

My youngest sister, Erma, (I can still recall the day she was born when I was 11) lives in Ontario and keeps in touch with daily calls. My health issues seem minor compared to hers. She has recently had cancer surgery and radiation treatments, all on top of her Parkinson's, which has now become worse. Last week she fell twice, two days in a row. She was not able to raise herself up and had to crawl to her phone to ask others to come in and lift her. Her balance is definitely worse.

Ah, but I have a remedy for her! I signed up several years ago to promote and sell products from VoxxLife, which are mainly socks and patchs to wear on one's arm. These all have neuro-technology. That is, the socks have special weaving in the soles which send messages to/from the brain which lead to stability and energy. Many who have balance and stability issues now rave about those socks.

The founder of VoxxLife has done more research and discovered that it is possible to insert similar designs on sticky patches which work up to 48 hours when stuck on your upper arm. Some are for balance (called Harmony). some are for more immunity (called NeuroVax), and some are for homeostatic regulation of energy metabolism, making you more mentally alert (called MetaPATCH).

Oh yes, they also have sleeves, which make people calmer and yet also mentally alert, for creative ideas or studying, and remembering things for exams. These eSmartr sleeves are especially popular with university students! These are reusable. I have one but it must be a size too small, for after 3-4 hours it feels too tight.

I am sending my sister the items I have to spare here right now. But if you would like to order from the site online, you just go to this link. Click on "SHOP" - if you like to to get right to it. But if you want understand how this neuro-technology works, click on "How-it Works" first, or go to "News & Stories" if you would like to see video testimonies of people who have been wonderfully helped with these products.

Again. Start here: voxxlife.com

P.S. Due to relentless efforts to hack into the blog, I have deleted it and move my weekly posts to this Department on my novel's site, which is all about my Friends being my Roses or RoseBouquet, and has been from the beginning, in 2001.
