My Dear Friends,
Somewhat embarrassing to admit, I'm not getting an annual bonus and Christmas is tight this year. I will be making bedroom slippers for you all as gifts. Please let me know your sizes. You'll most likely agree that it's a splendid idea, and should you wish to do the same, I've included the instructions below.

How to make bedroom slippers out of maxi pads:

You need four maxi pads to make a pair.
Two of them get laid out flat, for the foot part.
The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top.
Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of
the foot part.

Decorate the tops with whatever you desire, silk flowers
(this is most aesthetically appealing), etc.

These slippers are:
* Soft and Hygienic
* Non-slip grip strips on the soles
* Built in deodorant feature keeps feet smelling fresh
* No more bending over to mop up spills
* Disposable and biodegradable
* Environmentally safe
* Three convenient sizes: (1.) Regular, (2.) Light and (3.)
Get out the Sand Bags.

I've attached a photo of the first pair I made so that you
Can see the nifty slippers for yourself....

Awaiting your response. It's crucial that I get the right
Size for each one of you.

You are Fabulous Maggie!!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL, AND A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!

I love the holiday season and joining with family as we gather around the Christmas tree remembering old traditions and creating new ones with our grandchildren.

I found this video today and wanted to share! Hope it reminds you of happy family gatherings.

Sharyn, thanks for the great movie and Glenn, I love those songs. Oh and Keoi what can I say - I am sure those slippers are on everyone's list.

Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays to all of you!
I hope you all have the most blessed Holidays this year than you have ever had!

I know I will! I was concerned that my children would have very sad Holidays when they got up on Christmas morning and realized there were NO Gifts where the tree was supposed to be! But then I came in one day and a Christmas Tree had been put up! Then, there is this obnoxious phone in the Shelter and it never seems to be for me and I very much dislike answering it, and it rang one night, and I answered it begrudgingly, and the person on the other other end of the phone told me that a business in town had adopted me and my kids and bought us all presents. Then I talked to my X husband, and it was decided that the kids and I would spend Christmas day there and then he gave me $200.00 to spend on Christmas also!

I believe this will be one of the most special Christmas' ever for me, because I know it was all a creation or manifestation from the Source! Some think that if they could just have enough money to buy anything they wanted they would happy, but I think happiness is when you are connected to the source and you just trust the source for infinite abundance and you receive it!

Happy Holidays again

Sharyn, what a beautiful video! Do you know, I had to sing that song in front of an audience a couple of days ago, and I was frightened out of my wits, but more than my fear, I was determined to wish that they would all "sleep in heavenly peace." I kept a big smile on my face, and I sent out as much love as I could muster to all those people, and I really and truly wished for heavenly peace in my heart while I was singing. I only hope it caught on!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS to all of you! I can hardly wait to see what the next year will bring for us all.

Christmas Poems

Created Memories of Christmas

Twinkling lights on the Christmas tree
Like energy fairies winking at me
The village scene shines with a quiet glow
Peaceful solitude imagined within
A blanket of snow gently falls
Billowing softness covering all
The silence of a cold crisp winters night
Crunching snow on an evening walk
Garland cradles front porch rails
Stars a blaze in windows seals
Sharing smiles with passers by
The smell of pine caresses the senses
Reminding me of days gone by
Bright shining innocence in the eyes of a child
Gazing up as the parade goes by
Candles burning smelling sweet
Gingerbread houses with candy cane deer
Hot chocolate comfort and warm fuzzy quilts
Moments of tenderness shared
Reading together of kindness and caring
Remembering others with generous love
Giving and sharing ourselves
It is about family and friends together
A moment in time






Focus Defined at Christmas Time

It is not in the shopping
The frenzy, the rush
The bustling madness
The getting of stuff.

My focus defined is on observing the joy
The excitement and anticipation of each girl and boy
The taste of hot cider
Laughter and touch
Smiling as we remember each Christmas past

If we had but one more Christmas to celebrate
My focus defined would be
The sharing , the laughter
The family gathered round
Playing on the floor with new gadgets we have found
Wearing silly hats
Resting on the sofa after turkey dinner
Eating pumpkin pie, but only a sliver
Being more than overfilled with this ultimate joy
Reflecting on memories that are captured and recorded
Reminding us each where our focus is defined
Family and friends
And quality time.

Love, Light, Gratitude & Joy,
Maggie
