Now I have a messed up shoulder!!!! The spray has saved my life. Seriously. Vicki also sent me 2 of the sweetest cards! Thanks Vicki Lou! |

| My "Sweet Hunter" brought in these to me today!!! (I had just decided today that I was going to cut back. I guess I will cut back after these are gone!!!) I think he is trying to fatten me up or get on my good side!!! He knows that I love Blueberry filled powdered sugar doughnuts!!! Thanks honey!!! On my birthday he gave me the money to buy a Kindle Fire but I think I am going to save my money and get a Ipad 2 when I can. What do you think? Kindle Fire or Ipad 2?  I also got several cards in the mail and in person! I forgot to take a pictures of them! *************** I know there are things that I am forgetting. I am so blessed!!! Thank you to my family and friends! ******** I have several prayer requests. My friend J. A family in need. My son. My BFF My BFF's dad My Mother In Law And me!!!! **************** Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. James 5:16 |

Wow, you have some very special people in your life that treat you like a princess! Well deserved! Happy Birthday Val - blessing, love and peace to you. I'll lift your requests in prayer tonight. 1 Peter 4:7 'Cast all your care on Him for He cares for you.'
Well peanuts, I didn't know it was your birthday! Looks like it was grand!
Family and friends made sure of that!
Happy belated birthday!
Happy, Happy Birthday, Sweet Girl! It just looks like you had a wonderful day! Gosh, so many thoughtful cards, gifts and visits. Birthdays are fun, are they not? I think you would love an Ipad. Go for it.
I will pray for your requests.
I am so glad your birthday was special and may you have a beautiful year ahead.

Oh Val, I missed your birthday....*sob* I'm so glad it was happy!!! You sure got some lovely gifts. I vote for the Ipad2....I think you can do much more with it.
Val I'm sorry I missed your birthday yesterday but I'm so glad it was a good one. We are blessed to have friends and family who care about us! blessings, marlene
You are such a caring, giving, lovely person you deserve all the attention, love and gifts you got for your birthday.
You've had enough aches and pains now so I'm wishing this new year brings you total health and much happiness.
Happy, happy belated birthday!
I have a Kindle Fire and think it is great for just surfing and doing apps like my daily Bible readings.
It is great for books too. I like it very much.
It does not Skype like an Ipad does though.
Oh, I am such a BAAAAD friend...and I even had your name written on my calender and in my phone.....I still neglected to wish you happy birthday. So sorry....happy BELATED (real late) Birthday!
I received a Kindle Fire for Christmas. If my husband had told me before, I would have said, "No. I don't really need one" - which I suppose I don't. With that said, I like it. So here are my thoughts between the Kindle Fire and an iPad:
iPad has larger screen.
iPad is more expensive to purchase.
iPad has a reoccurring monthly charge, however, this will allow you to use it anywhere you would also have phone service.
iPad probably has more Apps, but one can only use one at a time anyway and you will find your favorites.
Kindle Fire will need a WiFi site to connect to the Internet, however, some apps work without having to be connected (reading a downloaded book).
So, my suggestion is to think about how you will use whatever you purchase. If you do not need to use the device where there is not WiFi, then purchasing a Kindle Fire will save you money. However, if you don't mind the extra cost and want a larger screen, the iPad may just be for you.
This is just my opinion. Hope that helps.
Happy Birthday too!
Wow Val!
So many pretty things ! You are right - those dishcloths are SO pretty & I can hear your hands thanking her! :-)
Happy Birthday to you.
I miss talking to you but I love reading your posts. I hope you had a wonderful birthday. I'm glad you received such awesome gifts!
I say iPad 2!
