COFFEE DEEP RED IVORY SAGE AND SLATE

JUST FOR A LAUGH

I received this from my friend Frank in my e-mail I just had to share it with everyone.
Price of your Brain

In the hospital the relatives gathered in the waiting room, where their family member lay gravely ill. Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber.

'I'm afraid I'm the bearer of bad news,' he said as he surveyed the worried faces.

'The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant.
It's an experimental procedure, very risky but it is the only hope. Insurance will cover the procedure, but you will have to pay for the brain yourselves.'

The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. After a great length of time, someone asked, 'Well, how much does a brain cost?'

The doctor quickly responded, '$5,000 for a male brain, and $200 for a female brain.'

The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoiding eye contact with the women, but some actually smirked.
A man unable to control his curiosity, blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask,

'Why is the male brain so much more?'

The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and explained to the entire group, 'It's just standard pricing procedure. We have to mark down the price of the female brains, because they've actually been used.'

Looking for something new to do on vacation?

AUGUST PLANTING TIPS

It is time to plant seeds, if you want to have those fall and winter veggies, like spinach, scallions, carrots and even lettuces. Have you been keeping track of the price of these things in the produce section?
If you have never had a veggie patch, this may be a good year to start, because it doesn't look like the prices are going down.
Things that you grow always taste so much better than the stuff you get at the grocery store.

Don't forget to order your fall bulbs for planting this month.
Try planting crocus bulbs, they will give your landscape a gentle touch of fall color.

You should be deadheading flowers as they fade, it keeps the plant looking better and
it keeps them from shedding their seed so they will produce more new blooms.

If you live in a mild climate, and have roses, you should fertilize them this month.

Don't forget, that Iris and other early blooming perennials can be divided this month, all the way into September. Do this at the coolest part of the day and give them a good watering in their new location.

August is such a hot month, keep a good eye on all your plants watering needs, they need about an inch of water each week. Deep, less frequent watering, is much better for them.

And don't forget the hanging baskets, check them everyday in this hot weather.

How to fill a small nail hole on your wall

If your walls are Sheetrock or plaster.
Just mix 2tablespoons salt and 2tablespoons cornstrach, then add enough water to make thick paste (about 5 teaspoons)
Now fill the hole with the paste. Let it dry sand lightly and touch up with paint.

USS New York, made from the World Trade Center !

Talk about recycling
I received this in yesterdays e-mail.
Just wanted to share with all of you.

It was built with 24 tons of scrap steel from the World Trade Center .

It is the fifth in a new class of warship - designed for missions that include special operations against terrorists. It will carry a crew of 360 sailors and 700 combat-ready Marines to be delivered ashore by helicopters and assault craft.

Steel from the World Trade Center was melted down in a foundry in Amite , LA to cast the ship's bow section. When it was poured into the molds on Sept 9, 2003, 'those big rough steelworkers treated it with total reverence,' recalled Navy Capt. Kevin Wensing, who was there. 'It was a spiritual moment for everybody there.'

Junior Chavers, foundry operations manager, said that when the trade center steel first arrived, he touched it with his hand and the 'hair on my neck stood up.' 'It had a big meaning to it for all of us,' he said. 'They knocked us down. They can't keep us down. We're going to be back.'

The ship's motto? 'Never Forget'

Please keep this going so everyone can see what we are

made of in this country!

Face off PEDEGG OR PUMICE

I am sure they are many of you out there who get a pedicure every week.
You will never save-a-dime doing that.
However the PEDEGG may be the thing that will let you cut back on how many pedicures you have in a month.
Consumer Reports did a comparsion of the 2 products
PEDEGG
CALLUS REMOVAL: It felt like a gentle grating.
Smoothing: The buffing pads put a nice polish on your feet.
NEATNESS: Captured most of the shavings but not all.
SPEED: QUICK
EASE OF USE: Efficient and easy
Price: $10.00

PUMICE STONE
CALLUS REMOVAL: Feet still felt rough.
SMOOTHING: NOT AS SMOOTH AS THE PRODUCT TESTER WOULD HAVE LIKED
NEATNESS: It can be used in the shower so no mess.
SPEED: Not so fast.
EASE OF USE: Slightly awkward.
Price: 99 cents

Their tester felt the PEDEGG WINS.
I will be watching for a sale on these.

Most local store carry this product.Remember: if you order from the web there will be shipping charges.
Have you used this product? If you do leave me a comment let us know if you like it as well as the testers did.

HAVE A ROOF RACK? IT IS COSTING YOU MONEY AT THE PUMP

If you are trying to save on gas. You need to get the roof rack off your car.
More than 50 percent of engine power goes to overcoming aerodynamic drag on the highway. Even an empty bike or ski rack can shave about 6mpg off your gas milage.
Also check your air pressure on your tires at least once a month. Underinflated tires can cost you 1mpg. Underinflated tires wear out faster.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CHIGGER BITES WON'T HEAL

Well, my husband and I took our son to the doctor yesterday and thank goodness we did because the bites were infected with staph, so he is taking oral antibiotics and steroids to help with the itching. The swelling is already starting to go down, so we are keeping a close eye on him to make sure they don't get worse. Thank you for all of your suggestions! - Kaeley B
Staph is on the rise more children are picking up this infections.

Treatments for Chigger Bites before the become ingfected
While nail polish isn't a good treatment for chigger bites, anything that can help control the itching can be helpful, including:
take a bath or shower as soon as possible after any possible exposure to chiggers
apply your favorite OTC anti-itch medication, such as hydrocortisone, Calamine lotion, Sarna, oatmeal baths, etc.
oral Benadryl
a prescription strength steroid cream
Although chiggers in North America don't usually carry any diseases, the bites themselves can get infected.
Avoiding Chigger Bites
Since not going outside and being active is not good advice and unlike poison ivy, it is hard to spot and avoid chiggers, it is important to learn other ways to avoid chiggers and chigger bites. This can include avoiding wearing clothing that put you at risk for chigger bites, such as sandals without socks, sleeveless shirts, and shorts. Instead, wear long pants made of tightly woven fabric, long sleeved shirts, and high top boots or shoes. As an added defense, it can help to tuck your pant legs into your shoes or boots.
Insect repellents are another good way to help you avoid chiggers. In addition to applying it on your exposed skin, it can help to apply your insect repellent around your ankles, wrists, neck, and waist, which is where the chiggers often gain access to the rest of your body through your shoes, shirt, pants, and shoes.

Batman can't be stopped

My son treated me to a trip to the movies today, we saw the new
Batman DARK KNIGHT (We got to the 11:30 am show at AMC $5.00 matinee,
after all this is save-a-dime, we are not paying full price.)

This movie is still breaking records, even beating out the new Mummy movie.
I can see why, it is a suspenseful ride.
I would not take a very young child to this however.

Heath Ledger, was a perfect Joker.
Christian Bale, he is, as always, my favorite Batman.
Not every one will love this movie, but I am a Grandma and I had a great time.
So the tried and true comic fans will love it I'm sure

Do you know how to tell when your child might not be being honest with you ?

The experts say Body Language is the key.
On many occasions, the mouth and the body aren't in sync — the words sound utterly convincing but everything else sends a very different message. Here are six of the most common physical indications of deception. While one or two are likely meaningless, if you see enough of them repeatedly, you should probably be concerned.
Covering the mouth while talking. It's as if they're subconsciously repressing the untruths they're spouting. It may be as blatant as completely concealing the mouth or as subtle as a single finger placed in front of the lips.
Touching the nose. Scientists have found that lying can cause the tissue in the nose to swell, meaning that a quick stroke could be a sign of deceit (or that it's allergy season).
Rubbing an eye. When lying to someone, the instinct is to look away in shame. Since that's a dead giveaway, many people content themselves with a fast wipe of the peepers.
Touching an ear. Just as you're supposed to see no evil, you should hear no evil as well. These nervous gestures can range from a small rub of the back of the ear to an outright yank of the ear lobe.
Going for the neck. Research has found lying can cause a tingling in the tissues of the neck, leading to scratching or pulling the collar. It signals that the speaker is feeling uncertainty, so be concerned if you see it right after you ask your child ,is your homework done. "Of course my homework is done."
Shaking the head no while saying yes. If he says, "Yep, I'm getting home late because I have a big assignment to finish" while nodding his head, he's working 0n a school project. If he sends the mixed message of saying yes while shaking his head no, look for him at the local hang out with his friends from school.
