3/25/2002 9:08AM A very happy Monday to everyone and thanks for joining me today. Welcome to all our newest members! I hope you will find a freebie or two that you can use. I hope everyone had a good weekend this weekend. It was beautiful here yesterday. Close to 70 degrees. I was unable to enjoy it, I spent most of the day in bed yesterday with a terrible migraine. I feel bunches better today though. Me and mom went on Saturday to see our local community theater's production of Annie Jr. It was really cute. The cast was made up of all children between the ages of 5 and 18. I was really suprised that they did such a great job. I really had a nice time. I have a beautiful website that I want to share with all my readers today. Froglady posted this on the board and it is a must see!! Sept 11th Memorial http://www.wuzupgod.com <a href="http://www.wuzupgod.com";>Memorial</a> I have several prayer requests and letters to share this morning. So I'll go ahead and start. Catherine writes: Hi Sheri, What does MVP and TMJ mean ? In regards to your visits to the dentist ? Catherine I'm sorry I didn't explain what MVP or TMJ is. I am just so used to referring to them with those initials because I have had it for so long that I neglected to explain what it is. MVP is Mitral Valve Prolapse which is a valve in the heart chamber that has a small leak but causes me problems. Like my heart flips alot and if I have any kind of dental work or surgery of any kind I have to be blasted with anitibiotics so I won't get an infection around my heart. It is pretty much standard procedure to do this. TMJ is and I am not real sure on the spelling here but Temporomandibular joint disease. It is a disease that affects your jaw joints and is something like arthritis in the jaw. I have had it for several years and have already had one surgery done and probably looking at another in the near future. It is very painful, causes bad headaches and your jaw not to be able to open up at all. I have to smash my hamburgers flat to get them in my mouth at times. Just to give you a little look at what it is like. That is why I can not go to a regular dentist for any dental work. I have to be put to sleep before they can open my mouth up wide enough to get in there. Really a nuisance. Thanks Catherine for letting me know that I needed to explain these two conditions better : ) Bigninny has a very special prayer request today: Back in September my sister-in-law was in the hospital fighting for her life. She had Toxic Shock Syndrome. We came so close to losing her that the Dr. told her husband to call the family in. But through prayer and faith 2 months later she came home. She has a 5 yr old and a set of twins that are 3yr old. Well she found out about a month ago that she is pregnant again. The ultra sound showed twins again. She went back for another ultra sound and she had lost what the Dr called twin A. She was not very thrilled about having twins again but the lose of one of them has really upset her and the whole family. It is just the idea that a child was lost. She still has not recovered fully from the TSS and it has weakened her heart Which is probably why she lost one of the babies. We are really worried about her. The Lord answered our prayers for her when she was so sick in September I know that he will answer our prayers again. Her children are so small it would be devastating for them to lose their mother at such a young age. Please keep her in your prayers. Bigninny I will continue to pray for your sister in law and her family as she goes this. One of our new members Jesus is free posted this prayer request: I am new here so glad to find a freebie site with a prayer board. please pray for my son( he is 20)who broke his arm again for third time. Pray that the lord will finally heal his arm, get rid of tumour and no needed surgery. Please pray for my daughter who is 13 and going through a difficult time of being in trouble and lying to the ones that love her. We will keep your family in our prayers.

Then the candy store owner's daughter handed the teacher a gift. She held it up, shook it and said. "I bet I know what it is - it's a box of candy!" "That's right!" shouted the little girl. The next gift was from the liquor store owner's son. The teacher held it up and saw that it was leaking. She touched a drop with her finger and tasted it. "Is it wine?" she asked. "No," the boy answered. The teacher touched another drop to her tongue. "Is it champagne?" she asked. "No," the boy answered. Finally, the teacher said, "I give up. What is it?" The boy replied, "A puppy!" ============================================================================= == 6.

An onion can provide many natural benefits. If you have been stung by a bee or mosquito. Cut an onion in half and hold it on the sting. It will take the pain away, and cool the sting. The onion is also great for an earache, just slice it in half and put it over the ear hole. Leave it there for a half an hour at a time or till the pain subsides. An onion can also help your sinus' drainage. It is a natural decongestant. Just make some onion juice, you do this by slicing up slices of and onion and put sugar in it. 1-2 TBL spoons, let set for 1/2 hour till juice forms and spoon it out. Swallow, it is not too bad. One onion can be "juiced" many times. This is a great tip for a pregnant woman who has a cold and can't take medicine. *If anyone has any household tips they would like to share, please e-mail them to me at sheri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ============================================================================= == THAT'S IT FOR TODAY'S FREEBIES.
