A Thanksgiving Poem


Be Thankful
(author unknown)

Be thankful that you don't already have
everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge
because it will build your strength and character.

Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.

It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings.

Have You Heard?

Have you ever heard of Tipnut.com?


From the Creator --

I think we all have them, those mile high piles of household tips and life hacks that we’ve collected over the years. They’re messy, disorganized and once they’ve been ‘filed’, those tips are nowhere to be found again.
Tipnut.com isn’t anything fancy. It’s simply my way of putting together all the cool tricks I’ve accumulated over the years into a simple, searchable, online filing box–this website. Some of them I’ve tried, some of them I don’t know if I’ll ever try. But I do know they’ll be here if I need them–and I’m happy to freely share everything with you too!

Here is Tipnut's site for Thanksgiving tidbits -- Check them out to spruce up or get creative for the holidays!!! I am going there right now to explore.

How To Seal A Bag And Make It Air-Tight

My aunt sent me this nifty storage plan -- What do you think about it?

This is just too simple, but sounds good.
The guy who first thought of the idea must be given an award for originality !!!
Wow, what a fantastic idea!
Do not have to grapple with rubber bands that are tied too tightly.

How to seal a bag and make it air-tight!



Cut up a disposable water bottle and keep the neck and top, as in photo.



Insert the plastic bag through the neck and screw the top - to seal.



The bottle is made to be air-tight, such that water will not leak, the secret lies with the top and screw!

This is a great idea to share. Good for us and the environment too.
