Yes, Amy...... you can ‘borrow’ the graphic. (Of course, if you ‘stole’ it - you wouldn’t have to return it!) LOL!

(BTW, I ‘stole it off ‘google’!)

I know a few ladies who have them and as far as I know they like them. And they look really good on them. You may get used to them after a day or two.

The pedicure is marvelous! I have a gift certificate for one and haven’t used it yet.

In honor of Wisconsin Admission Day.............

......a picture from my son's first deployment.That's him standing 4th from the left; next to him, in the red jacket, is the governor of Wisconsin, Jim Doyle (a Dem, but one who supports the troops. He visited Ev's battalion in Kuwait.)

Oh, I would LOVE them, if they were applied well. My own fingernails show on the sides of almost every nail - they are WAY too long for me to be comfortable with - and my cuticles were never trimmed and some of the corners were not filed, and are sharp as a razor!

I personally don’t like the ‘sharp corner’ look on a squared nail. He told me only old ladies get thiers filed to a point - to fight off the old men.

Yeahhhhh, right.

I didn’t ask for a point - just softer corners.

So, I am sitting here, filing them shorter, and smoothing the sharp corners. Ugggggh! (And to think that I paid for this!)

Thank you.

I wish I had some pictures to share from his current deployment but I only have one so far and he asked me not to post it (for security reasons.) Maybe he'll send some later on that I'll be able to post.

Wow!
Who is like You, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like You, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? —Exodus 15:11

One blustery day in June, our family, holidaying in the Canadian Rockies, went to a tourist site that was billed as a “must see.” The cold wind made me reluctant to go on until I saw a group of people returning from the scenic spot. “Is it worth it?” I asked. “Definitely!” was their response. That gave us the incentive to go on. When we finally reached the spot, its beauty rendered us virtually speechless. “Wow!” was all we could manage.

Paul reached that point as he wrote about the work of God in saving Jew and Gentile in the book of Romans. Three things about God “wowed” him.

First, God is all-wise (11:33). His perfect plan of salvation shows that He has far better solutions to the problems of life than we are capable of devising.

Second, God is all-knowing. His knowledge is infinite. He needs no counselor (v.34) and nothing surprises Him!

Third, God is all-sufficient (v.35). No one can give to God what He has not first given to them. Nor can anyone ever repay Him for His goodness.

We can say with Moses, “Who is like You, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?” (Ex. 15:11 ESV). What a marvelous God we serve!

By God’s grace I stand on tiptoe,
Viewing all His wonders grand,
Praising Him who freely gave me
Simple faith to understand! —Bosch

In God’s character and in His creation, we see His majesty.

Bible in One Year: 2 Chronicles 10-12; John 11:30-57
