Woke up this morning to a world covered in ice! Unfortunately, it is mostly melted now, when the kids are up. I had planned to let them go outside and play in it, but it is all slushy and mucky now. Blech.
Today we get our new washer and dryer!! We purchased a new HE system that can wash 2 to 3 times as much as our current models do. Jessica is especially excited, as she's been doing much of the household chores while I've been down.
Having to help the kids lots with their schoolwork, so haven't had time to work on any websites, jewelry or EBaying...
I do have an update ready for thelowcarbcook.com but I can't seem to get it to upload...???
Blessings,

Made a bunch of jewelry
I'm feeling a lot better, and I had committed to donating some jewelry to a charity auction back in October. The auction is in December. Yesterday, we got it mostly all put together. It is a truly gorgeous set -- I hope that it does really well for their auction!! It is all white and peach grade A pearls and mother of pearl with sterling silver findings.
So, I was in the mood for making jewelry! I made another several piece set -- the one for the auction is a 7 piece set -- and this one I made today is something like 5 pieces. When I get it up on the website, folks will be able to purchase whatever parts of the set they want. That is why I'm making so many options. This set is really cool -- features a lot of shimmery, shiny goldstone and hematite plus some really cool silver Bali beads.
Then, my friend Martha came over and we went through the jewelry that is left from the summer sales. She loves pink and purple, especially purple, so it got me motivated on those colors. I made a very long pearl and gemstone necklace that is pink and magenta with matching earrings. It is just a 2 piece set. I think it is the longest one I've made thus far. I really like having my extra-long beading board!!
On EBay today I got a few books listed (www.stores.ebay.com/jamsgems4u):
PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE What Am I here for? Rick Warren HB
Don't ALL RELIGIONS Lead to GOD? Tough Questions #5 Wow
TOUGH QUESTIONS Leader's Guide Willow Creek Excellent!!
MASTERING the BASICS 1 Peter Study Guide EXCELLENT!!
*****
Leviticus 26:6
New Living Translation (NLT)
“I will give you peace in the land, and you will be able to sleep with no cause for fear. I will rid the land of wild animals and keep your enemies out of your land."
That is a good one. Here's another:
Psalm 91:5
New International Version (NIV)
"You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day"
That second one is really good -- there is nothing to fear at night, nor during the day. No fear for what you imagine or for what can happen that you can't control.
Re-train the mind. No fear. Peace that passes understanding instead....
Blessings,
Sharron

The Bully and The Defender -- A True Story
When I was in sixth grade, I was in the school play. However inappropriate I realize it to be now, the play was about a family who was up in the middle of the night arguing. I played the part of the teenaged daughter coming in with her boyfriend at 2:15am. We walk into the scene, realize what time it is, that the family is awake and dive behind the couch for cover. That is pretty much the play...
The kid who played my boyfriend, Greg -- I barely even knew him. He wasn't in any of my classes or anything. He was, however, one of the "popular kids" -- all the girls in sixth grade had a crush on him. That is all of them except me. I couldnt' have cared less. He was just opposite me in the play.
Dawn was one of the biggest kids in sixth grade. I think we had PE together. Well, she decided that Greg was HER boyfriend (never mind what Greg thought about it!) and that I was in her way. She was going to take me out. She told me to meet her in the cafeteria after school so she could hammer me. Like a ninny, I showed up -- no, seriously, I think she threatened me something worse (worse than being hammered??) if I didnt' show up... Anyway, here I was sitting in the cafeteria after school that afternoon. I was going to try to convince her that I couldn't care less about Greg and that she could have him for all I cared. He was only opposite me in the play -- we weren't even friends, much less boyfriend and girlfriend!
Well, off to the left, who should walk in but Dawn... at the same time, off to the right, in comes Shawna.
Now, I had mentioned that Dawn was one of the biggest kids in sixth grade. Shawna was the biggest. She was absolutely enormous! Fully 5'10" in height and she had the shoulders of a linebacker. I'm certain she probably ended up being a professional athlete when she grew up! Anyway, in walks Shawna and places herself between Dawn and me.
I'd never had any previous contact with Shawna. I knew who she was by sight -- we didn't go to that big of a school -- but we didn't have any classes together and we'd never spoken.
Dawn starts blustering, "Get out of my way! She stole my boyfriend and I'm gonna beat her up!!"
Shawna very calmly and quietly responds, "No. Sharron wouldn't do that. She's a nice girl."
Dawn says more loudly, "Get out of my way!! She stole my boyfriend and I'm going to beat her UP!!"
Shawna, still quietly and calmly responds, "No. Sharron wouldn't do that. She's a nice girl."
At this point, my jaw is firmly on the floor. I manage to protest weakly to Shawna, "Shawna, you don't need to do this..."
Shawna basically tells me to shut up and that "yes I do."
"But why??" query I.
"Because it's the right thing to do," comes the reply.
Again, Dawn blusters for Shawna to get out of the way so she could pound me into hamburger.
Shawna this time, quite calmly, but firmly replies, "If you are going to get to Sharron, you have to go through me first."
Dawn starts to get even more aggitated, "Get Out of My Way!!!"
Still firmly, "If you are going to get to Sharron, you are going to have to go through me first," was the reply.
At that, Dawn turned tail, only to run into the Principle -- a formidible woman in her own right. She was about 5'9" with fully a foot and a half piled up flaming red hair! The principle took her by the shoulders directly into her office.
Shawna turned to me. I pulled my jaw up off the floor again, to ask her, "Why did you help me?? You didn't have to..."
"Yes, I did."
"But why? I don't understand??"
"Because it was the right thing to do. You are a nice girl and I couldn't stand by and see her beat you up when I could do something about it. It was just the right thing to do."
I stammered a weak "Thank you."
Shawna replied, "Don't mention it," and turned and left the building.
From that point on Dawn never bothered me again, in fact, she avoided both myself and Greg for the rest of the school year.
And Shawna, we never spoke again. If we saw each other in the hallway, she would nod a greeting, but that was it.
That summer, both girls moved away from our town.
*****
Why am I telling this story? I've been struggling with attacks from the Enemy of my Soul. This morning the Lord reminded me of this event from my childhood. It very clearly and tangibly illustrates several things:
1. Sure the enemy was big and scary,
2. But my Defender was so much bigger and scarier had she chosen to be my opponent!
3. The enemy has to break through my Defender's barrier to be able to get to me,
4. He's afraid to do that!!
Plus, here's where the analogy breaks down, but it is still really cool:
Not only is my Defender bigger and scarier and tougher than the Enemy, but my Defender lives in me!! That makes ME bigger and badder and tougher than the Enemy, as long as I don't allow fear a foothold.
Reminder: Put on your armor every day. Ephesians 6.

Did an allergy self-treatment today
I'm feeling pretty loopy. Today we did an allergy treatment for corn -- the treatment is described on my www.thelowcarbcook.com site in full. It basically sensitizes you to the item you are allergic to -- however, the day of treatment can be pretty rough. Makes you feel really cruddy to put it nicely! We are doing this so that we won't have so many issues when it comes Thanksgiving next week!!
Needless to say, I've not gotten much done on EBay. I've been working on my site www.jamsgems.com but it isn't ready to load yet. I'm making it a little wider so more will fit on the pages, and I'm going to add a bunch of new items. It will take time ...
On my EBay store www.stores.ebay.com/jamsgems4u, this is what I got done today:
Lovely WHITE STAG Embroidered Shirt Flamingo XL 18 NWOT -- this shirt is so great!! It has these cool embroidered appliques with pink flamingos and trees and flowers on it... so cool! Wish it fit me ;)
I didn't do any other listings on EBay or on my site, but I did get my WebRings all set up! I've applied to join 4 distinct rings because of the differing scopes of the areas of my site. There is a Christian biz owners, Family fun, Hand-crafted jewelry and a beading one. I think it will be fun for folks :)
Back to the treatment:
Aaron had the roughest time of it of the four of us. His corn allergy really must have been something! Just think -- I used corn as a replacement for wheat for him for a long time! Explains a lot of problems we had. I think Melody had the easiest time of it, overall -- she was mostly just hyper. Jess was droopy and slow, but not too bad this afternoon. Mine, as I said before, made me a bit loopy and gave me gastrointestinal symptoms. I'll leave it at that ;)
Lord willing, in 3 days we will be able to add corn back into our diet -- YAY!!
Blessings,
Sharron

I made it to church & some new items...
I made it to & through church this morning. At first I didn't know if I was going to or not, but it went fine. It was good to be back! Pastor said he will do the Christmas play, since it is so simple. That is a relief!
I've got some new items up on our EBay store www.stores.ebay.com/jamsgems4u
I have added several 40 gram bead packs:
Red White & Blue BEAD Mix Flowers & Hearts 40 grams(Z5)
Pretty Variety BEAD Mix Flowers & Hearts 40 grams(Z2/4)
Watermelon TOURMALINE glass BEAD Mix 40 grams (41A)
Wonderful OCEAN Colors Glass BEAD Mix 40 grams (Z4)
Super FANCY Variety Glass BEAD Mix 40 grams (Z2)
Stunning BLACK Variety Glass BEAD Mix 40 grams (Z8)
These are some really great bead mixes! I trust folks will enjoy working with them :)
Today was Great-Grandma's 90th birthday party. They had a big shin-dig for her -- primarily, everyone was to bring photos for a big photo album for her. Grandma's memory isn't what it once was, so we're hoping that by having a page with everyone's name and how they are related to her will help her to continue to remember us. Last time I saw her, it was so distressing to see her -- she knew she should know who I was, that I was someone in her family, but she couldn't remember me. Very sad. I hope the photo album helps!
Dinner time!

Sharron

Feeling better today!
I'm feeling quite a bit better today! I still can sit for only short periods, but the pain is a lot less intense. I still can't sit in a normal chair, but I have a nice "reclining" chair at my desk :)
Had the kids make Dan's boss a Thank You card yesterday, intend to get that in the mail today!

Quick update
Can't sit for more than just a couple of minutes, but wanted to update this morning's topic.
Hubby was offered the full raise from his boss, so he doesn't have to change jobs and gets the increase in salary :) :)
Big relief to hubby.
Now, we just need me to get well.....

A new job or keep the same one??
My husband has been presented with an interesting dilemma. Last night, he was offered a job at a shop that makes very pretty cabinets and furniture. It pays, starting wage, better than what he is making right now. However, and the however is big, it doesn't offer health insurance. Today he is going to speak with his current boss and see if his boss can help him out...
I, also, had been offered a job -- working at home, taking into account my disabilities. However, with my re-injury yesterday, it is going to be a while before I'll be able to do anything. I'll be in bed most of the day again for a while. That income really would have helped us a lot, too.
Ah well, God knows, and I trust him.
Because of the re-injury, I didn't get much done on my EBay store yesterday www.stores.ebay.com/jamsgems4u . I listed just a few books:
Exploring through Ephesians, J. Vernon McGee Bible Study -- I really think this is the last of the McGee books!
The Wrath of God, John MacArthur's Bible Studies
Perfect Love, John MacArthur's Bible Studies
Exalting the Crucified Christ, John MacArthur, Jr. -- this book is interesting. It is by the same author, apparently, as the others, but it seems like it was an early version, before they decided to standardize them and make them into a series. Took me a while to figure that out! This is also the last of the MacArthur books.
These books are in EXCELLENT condition, especially the Perfect Love book!! It is bright and shiny :)
I'm going to go take a shower... Lord willing, the door will stay right where it belongs!

This is Cocoa and his friend
This is our kitty, Cocoa. He's a 10 year old Maine Coon Red Tabby -- don't know if he's purebred or not, but he's very "typical" even down to being polydactyl (having extra toes.) He's got the sweetest disposition -- just perfect for my kids! He tolerates -- even seems to enjoy -- being dressed up and put in the doll stroller and being run through the house "in his royal carriage!"
In the photo, he's in his favorite position -- flopped out on his back taking a snooze!
Blessings,
Sharron
I believe I've had a major breakthrough with my back!!
I believe I've had a major breakthrough with my back!!!!!!!!!
I've been down with my back since Oct. 23. Last night, around 9 or 10 pm I noticed that I no longer had that "very large knife stuck into the middle of my back" feeling. The back doesn't feel perfect, but OH so much better!!!
Thank The Lord!!!!!!
Also, last night I got some major work on our www.jamsgems.com website. I added all of the computer games for PC (Windows) and Macintosh that I currently have on my EBay store www.stores.ebay.com/jamsgems4u to my inventory on my regular website:
VeggieTales Minnesota Cuke & the coconut Apes
VeggieTales The Mystery of Veggie Island
VeggieTales Dance dance dance
VeggieTales Creativity City
BibleMan Video Game Adventure: A Fight for Faith
Catechumen Teen Bible game for PC
Adventures in Odyssey & the Treasure of the Incas
Adventures in Odyssey & the Great Escape
Adventures in Odyssey & the Sword of the Spirit
Getting all these games in my inventory has been very exciting for my kids -- now the question will be which of these great gifts are they getting for Christmas presents?!
I'm hoping to get a lot more done today -- I'm feeling so much better!!
Blessings,
Sharron
PS: I don't understand why the Lord is allowing this... It's been years since I've gone for more than 24 hours without pain.
Right after I typed this, I got in the shower and the shower door fell off!! I had to catch it and put it back on. Now my back is re-injured.
