I'm not sure I can comply with #712 on the very day all of my favorite TV shows are coming back! I like #713 though. I've been a bargain hunter all my life and I don't have a history of ever paying too much for anything. It's just part of my chemical makeup and I like being this way.

I'm glad I started these Instruction Book pages up again, especially in the morning when I'm still half asleep. The winter storm watch is on in my area. Today isn't supposed to be too bad but the hours between sundown and sunup are supposed to be pretty bad. I hope my snow plow man won't come until it's all finished in the daylight hours. Be safe wherever you are today and tomorrow.

More fatherly advice.

I told you I would post more!

More sage advice from a father to a son. It's been too long since I posted from this book -- over a year. I will post weekly until this volume is finished. I'm working hard on #695 trying to get my upstairs office in order. It has been too long since I gave this space my attention. My big PC is up here and it contains all my files for posts like this and my Photoshop editing software. I've been working downstairs from my laptop and neglecting my desktop. I know everyone will be happy to see Life's Instruction Book once again. I'm getting a jump on my New Year's Resolutions.

Meet a Few of the Cake Ladies

‘Not even our husbands knew!’

This is a really amazing and uplifting story about a group of 9 women in West Tennessee who decided to iron their husband's shirts and use the laundry money for baking pound cakes for needy families. It WILL make you cry.

Read all about the women who have been secretly delivering cakes to underprivileged families for over 30 YEARS via the Positive Press Daily.

Marlo Thomas wrote an even longer version of this story here.

It's been too long since I created a page from this wonderful book to inspire you. I like all of these suggestions from a father to his college-bound son.

Do What You Can

I would love this even more if it were embroidered. What a great sampler this would make. I especially like the Use What You Have part. via

Did you plant any seeds today?
