And That’s….the Truth

I am so happy for my best friend. Yesterday I got a phone call from her telling me of the amazing progress that her son is achieving. There for a while she was quite worried about him as it looked like he was headed down a very dangerous path. Having an older son of my own who has made some pretty stupid choices in life I could relate well. But, according to her he is ff the drugs and alcohol and looks like he may not need to enter an alcohol rehab center after all. Hopefully he can stay clean and sober on his own and turn his life around. So far he’s doing really well. For her sake as well as his, I really hope this trend continues.

It’s been over 20 years since I have seen my best friend from high school. Just out of the blue she called me last week and wanted to get together to re-connect. Although the phone call was a major surprise, I did jump at the chance to get to see her again. So you can imagine my major astonishment when I seen her at the coffee shop. When we were in high school she was a bit overweight and I couldn’t believe the weight loss she had achieved. I haven’t changed all that much since high school, but she certainly has. She looks great and feels great! Now that we’ve re-connected, we are both going to do everything in our power not to lose touch again.

Although I don’t work at any job right now, I was just recently invited to a retirement party for one of the ladies that I used to work with at my old job. This woman is in her early 60’s and is definitely looking forward to a new chapter in her life. So to celebrate this milestone, I have decided to purchase her a Teaposy Blooming Tea Set. Not only does this type of gift make for a very unique gift, but it’s a super gift to give anyone who has everything.

One of the things that I love about this site where I will purchase this very unique gift is their wonderful inventory of great gift ideas. They have such a wide variety of gifts listed on their site, that I am positive that anyone would be able to find a unique gift for any person in their life. And because all their prices are extremely reasonable, any one can afford to utilize this site.

When a friend of mine went to apply for her very first Car Loan she was very disappointed when she got turned down. The reason for his disappointment was that she really needed this car to get back and forth to her new job. The bank did tell her why they turned her down and it was because of her bad credit. So being the nice person that I am, I directed her to a site where she would be able to check out numerous Bad Credit Personal Loans to be able to make her car purchase after all.

After browsing the site, she discovered that not only do they provide most types of loans for any credit situation, but the interest and repayment schedule were very acceptable as well. Just because you have made a couple of mistakes in life, you shouldn’t have to be punished for the rest of your life for this. And, this is exactly why this site is in existence. So, hopefully she will get the loan she needs and be able to start that new job after all.

Many of you may not be aware that I have just recently started a brand new home crafting business over at Simply Crafting. So far things are going a little slow, but business has started to pick up. A little over a month ago a friend of mine commissioned me to make her a quilt. Well I am happy to report that this quilt is almost finished and I did give my friend a sneak peak of her quilt. She loves it!! She loves it so much, that she has already asked me to make her TWO more before May 1. Because of the type of quilt it is, I already agreed to these two quilts in this time frame.

So, I am extremely happy to report that business is picking up. I also have a knitted afghan on the go that I will eventually be selling as well as trying my hand at home made jewelry. So, although right now the orders coming in are kind of slow, I have no doubt that very soon business will be booming.
