Thank you so much!

Oh, I just love my new calendar!

It is so cool, thank you!

And I got the code for the free digital calendar inside

So I got online and picked a neat one called

A Happier 2017 by Gretchen Rubin

I also looked at 365 bible verses a year,

But they were Alitalia generic, and the one I picked 

Was really different

I give you examples below 

 

A Picture for You

A flower for you

Earlier this year

The house next to mine was demolished

And right now it is just a lot

Till they do something with it

That all of us in the neighbourhood use

To walk our dogs.

I was walking the beagles this morning

And noticed this lone survivor proclaiming Spring

From the flower beds that were around the house.

Thought for the day:

Even when our lives are in flux,

And all we see is wasteland around us

Life continues,

With spots of beauty and perseverance.

Lamentations 3:22-23

Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed,

Because His compassions fail not.

They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.

Memorial Cards

Hello
I have not seen an e-mail from you about Mrs. Santoro's memorial cards, and I was not sure how to best communicate, be it by e-mail, text, Facebook, or this blog.
The company through whom I had Anne's memorial cards done,  has all of a sudden fallen off the face of the Earth. They were called Memorial Cards Inc. A quick Google search will show you that they were one of the stronger results when looking for memorial cards. (And of course were the most cost effective!)

www.memorialcardsinc.com/

Memorial Cards Inc. offers beautiful, custom funeral card designs that pay a loving final tribute to the life that is being remembered.

But evidently in just the last few months they went out of business.

 Looking at the other options I find :

Tiny Prints- 

 www.tinyprints.com

$49.75 for 25

- $1.80 per memorial card for 50 ( so $90 for 50) 

 as far as I can see they are not laminated, just heavy card stock.  I do have a 25% off coupon so actually more like $68 for 50. But I don't know if they will let you combine the free shipping offer with the 25% off offer.

Memorial Prayer cards.com

 http://www.memorialprayercards.com

$1.45 per card , and they ARE laminated, more like Anne's. Minimum 50 so $72.50 for 50 ( always free shipping)

 

Funeral Prints .com

https://www.funeralprints.com/prayer-cards/

Laminated, minimum of 50- $84 , free shipping

Personally I think the back of card image selection is better with the latter 2  (but Tiny Prints has a nice beach scene if that appeals).  The decision for the back image would be religious (Jesus, Mary, Angels, stained glass, etc.) semi religious (candles, doves, etc)  Nature- winter, beach, favorite flowers, birds,  etc. or locations such as lighthouse or Italy. 

Let me know what you and Joe are thinking.

It's the little things

I know it's inconsequential,

But being that Churchill is my favourite

Non religious historical figure of all time

This just makes me happy.
