Glenndel's Blessed Life

My hubby and I were talking the other day about what we could do to save money we are spending on bills. We have already cut back on our cable TV, lowered our insurance costs, decreased our food bill week to week and some other things to save money. Due to the slow economy, my hubby isn’t making as much money as he was a couple of years ago. We love living in Denver, but it’s not the cheapest city to live in. We don’t go out to eat at restaurants except for special occasions. My hubby and I agree that finding ways to save money is just as important making money. One area that we both agreed we could put a better focus on is practicing better Energy saving habits. It’s amazing how many things we do in the house everyday that effect how much we pay on our utility bills each and every month. We found a very helpful website for us called microsoft-hohm.com. This is where we learned what parts of the house us using the most of our home energy each month. Cutting back on using our home appliances will help us save more money than we thought. It was great information for us to realize which parts of our energy usage is the majority of our monthly energy bill. This will motivate us to really cut back on the areas of our energy usage that will help lower our electricity and gas bill the most each month. Anyone that visits this website will learn something helpful to find ways to cut back on their energy consumption. It’s one of those things that is knowledge as much as effort that makes a difference in lowering how much energy we use everyday. Making smart and subtle changes add up when it comes to trying to lose less energy and save money.

The following is a true story written by an educational psychologist and her experience on a plane.

On a flight to Florida, I was preparing my notes for one of the parent-education seminars I conduct as an educational psychologist.

The elderly woman sitting next to me explained that she was returning to Miami after having spent two weeks visiting her six children, 18 grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren in Boston.

Then she inquired what I did for a living.

I told her, fully expecting her to question me for free professional advice.

Instead she sat back, picked up a magazine and said, “If there’s anything you want to know, just ask me.”

A man observed a woman in the grocery store with a three year old girl in her basket. As they passed the cookie section, the child asked for cookies and her mother told her “no.” The little girl immediately began to whine and fuss, and the mother said quietly, “Now Ellen, we just have half of the aisles left to go through; don’t be upset. It won’t be long.”

He passed the Mother again in the candy aisle. Of course, the little girl began to shout for candy. When she was told she couldn’t have any, she began to cry. The mother said, “There, there, Ellen, don’t cry. Only two more aisles to go, and then we’ll be checking out.”

The man again happened to be behind the pair at the check-out, where the little girl immediately began to clamor for gum and burst into a terrible tantrum upon discovering there would be no gum purchased today. The mother patiently said, “Ellen, we’ll be through this check out stand in five minutes, and then you can go home and have a nice nap.”

The man followed them out to the parking lot and stopped the woman to compliment her. “I couldn’t help noticing how patient you were with little Ellen…”

The mother broke in, “My little girl’s name is Tammy… I’m Ellen.”

Unfortunately, my sister-in-law, Carol, has had multiple sclerosis for over twenty years.  She used to be very active playing tennis and a lot of golf.  But, over time she was unable to continue with these activities.  She was slowly losing strength and dexterity in her arms and legs.  The most practical way to keep herself in shape by working out was by doing aquatic therapy.  Luckily,  Carol and my brother-in-law have had an outdoor heated pool at each of the houses they have lived in since she was diagnosed.  She can do exercises in the pool she wouldn’t be able to do otherwise.  This has allowed her to stay in the best possible shape considering the challenge of dealing with her MS.

Over the last several years, there has been amazing innovations in the design of products for aquatic therapy.  One of the leading innovators is hydroworx.com.  They have a unique design that combines the benefits of therapy in water and a treadmill.  This design of an water treadmill was first used for rehabilitating race horses.  Now, this technology is now available for people to use and benefit from using for their rehab.  Hydrotherapy pools are now a common method used for rehab.  But, their hydrotherapy design offers unique features and benefits compared to other products or methods.  Not only is a swim spa very effective, but not as demanding or strenuous as other types of rehab.  To learn more about swim spas and aquatic therapy equipment, check out this website and see how they can help you.

A man walks into a bar and says, “Bartender, give me two shots.” Bartender says, “You want them both now or one at a time?” The guy says,” Oh, I want them both now. One’s for me and one’s for this little guy here,” and he pulls a tiny three inch man out of his pocket.

The bartender asks “He can drink?”

“Oh, sure. He can drink.”

So the bartender pours the shots and sure enough, the little guy drinks it all up.

“That’s amazing” says the bartender. “What else can he do, can he walk?”

The man flicks a quarter down to the end of the bar and says, “Hey, Jake. Go get that.” The little guy runs down to the end of the bar and picks up the quarter. Then he runs back down and gives it to the man.

The bartender is in total shock. “That’s amazing” he says, “what else can he do? Does he talk?”

The man says “Sure he talks, hey, Jake, tell him about that time we were in Africa and you made fun of that witch doctor’s powers!”

A man goes to a bar with his dog. He goes up to the bar and asks for a drink. The bartender says “You can’t bring that dog in here!” The guy, without missing a beat, says “This is my seeing-eye dog.” “Oh man, ” the bartender says, “I’m sorry, here, the first one’s on me.” The man takes his drink and goes to a table near the door.

Another guy walks in the bar with a Chihuahua. The first guys sees him, stops him and says “You can’t bring that dog in here unless you tell him it’s a seeing-eye dog.” The second man graciously thanks the first man and continues to the bar. He asks for a drink. The bartender says “Hey, you can’t bring that dog in here!”

The second man replies “This is my seeing-eye dog.” The bartender says, “No, I don’t think so. They do not have Chiwauas as seeing-eye dogs.” The man pauses for a half-second and replies “What?!?! They gave me a Chihuahua?!?”
