"To Do" Suggestions

Buy yourself one fresh flower and place by your desk, bed, living room and enjoy. You will feel less stress by looking at your flower.

Visit your post office and stock up on stamps. They should have the Nutcracker stamps. I hope they have stamps for JESUS too.

Have velvet clothing? Don't iron.....freshen up by turning inside out and steam. Be careful....you might want to spot test this. I have done this before and my clothing looked really great!

Always dry clean your jacket, skirt or pants at the same time. Do not just take the pants or skirt to the cleaners...you want the color to match.

Walk and then walk....walking builds bones...walking can reduce high levels of estrogen...it makes your mood better.........helps with sleep. Also its free.

Stop Impulse Spending. Use things until they are ready to visit the garbage can. Really.....it is time to save money.....we don't need 15 pairs of shoes and 20 handbags....it really is fun to save.....even if its only $10 a week....Use all food in your pantry.....many times we have things we can make from our pantry but are not in the mood to eat.......think of new ways to prepare these items...you just may find a great new dish.

Make Red Velvet Cupcakes.

Have a yard sale. Visit yard sales.

Donate clothes to a church care center. A church where people can come in and pick up nice clothes for free. Call a church and see if there is a needy family and give nice sheets, clothing, maybe extra kitchen tools.......

Bake some sweet potatoes....They have more immunity boosting beta carotene than any other vegetable.

Have a piece of pumpkin pie......it helps your skin........it will promote collagen...now our faces need that and you can also enjoy a treat!

Eat pecans......they sharpen your brain. Pecans have Omega 3's.....they also have magnesium and calcium....

All You Magazine states that baby food applesauce is more nutritious than the adult variety. Because the peel is pureed along with the apples. I am going to buy me some.

Eat more apples.....even two a week at least. It can prevent Asthma....they have lots of fiber which links to better lung function even in smokers.

Try Ground White Pepper.....its better for you and it changes the taste just a bit. I love it.

Eat egg whites each day cooked up for a snack.....it helps our body and skin. Be sure to ask your doctor first.

Try the Simply Juices.......I love the Simply Apple and Simply Lemonade and Orange. I just tried today...Simply Orange and Mango...its wonderful.......Our Kroger has them on special for $3.00 each.

Call a family member just to say hello. Call a friend or write a nice letter today or card. Getting something in the mail means so much more!
