moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands
at times of challenge and controversy.

A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz ( Karen@lonekeep.com)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you to our sponsors, Heart and Soul Holistic Center and Jersey Shore Hobby Center.
Ahhh, the first real snow of the season... Makes me think of when I was a kid and how I
used to love going out for hours and playing in the snow! Building a snowman, snowball
fights
and sledding! Then the best thing was coming in to a warm house after being frozen,
putting on
warm, dry clothes and drinking hot cocoa with whip cream... What a wonderful time we had,
my brothers and I. Now when I see the snow fall, I think of my nieces and see how they get
excited the same way we did and I think how some things come full circle and how funny it
is.
I hope that the snow brings back warm memories for you too and that you'll have some fun
out in
it before you have to shovel it! Be careful and be safe.
Until February 4th, have fun and stay warm inside and out...
Karen
P.S. - After shoveling the snow, why not get a massage from our sponsor Heart and Soul!
