Another reason to fight the man-made global warming propaganda

Irena Sendlerowa
1910-2008

May 12 marked the death of a 98-year-old lady named Irena.

During WWII, Irena received permission from the Nazis to work in the Warsaw ghetto as a plumbing/sewer specialist.

She had an ulterior motive…

Being German, she knew the Nazis’ plans for the Jews and smuggled infants out in the bottom of the large tool box she carried. Larger children were placed in a burlap sack in the back of her truck. Also in the back was a dog that she had trained to bark each time the Nazi guards allowed her out of the ghetto and back in.

The soldiers, of course, wanted nothing to do with the dog, and its barking covered any noise made by the infants and small children. Irena managed to smuggle out approximately 2,500 children before she was finally caught. In 1943 Sendler was arrested by the Gestapo, severely tortured, and sentenced to death. Żegota saved her by bribing German guards on the way to her execution. She was left in the woods, unconscious and with broken arms and legs. She was listed on public bulletin boards as among those executed. For the remainder of the war, she lived in hiding, but continued her work for the Jewish children. She kept a record of the names of all the children she smuggled out of that Warsaw ghetto and kept them in a glass jar buried under a tree in her back yard.

After the war, she tried to locate any parents who may have survived so she might reunite the child with its family. Most, of course, did not survive the Holocaust, and the vast majority of the surviving children were placed in foster homes or adopted.

Last year Irena was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, but she lost to Al Gore, who won the award for presenting a movie on Global Warming. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irena_Sendler

We love our dentist

Honestly I have never liked going to the dentist, who does??? Today I got two cavities filled and had a really good experience, so I decided to share. Our dentist Kevin Hintz is located in Post Falls, ID. He and his staff are well worth the travel. If you have been looking for a good dentist look no further.

Not just a great photographer…

When you come across people who are fun and wonderful to work with, it is only an added bonus that they are completely talented. Here is where I tell you we found Ben Delaney. Our only thought is… who would not like this guy?

His website will show you his work… WEBSITE!! and his SPASH-PAGE will show you his humor, or maybe only we think he is funny??

Point being, Ben was the photographer at Kate and Shanes wedding. Kate and Shane picked 4 very bold primary colors and wanted us to create a look for them! My favorite part about this couple was how laid back they were. They had fun planning the wedding, trusted the help they hired, and ultimately had a blast at their party.

Here is the only photo I have seen from

the charming Ben Delaney.

Elysium Touch Massage

My hips have been killing me lately so I finally gave into, my friend Mariah Neesons, suggestion of a massage. GLAD I DID!! I have had many massage therapist friends over the years and still never listen to the advice and get massaged regularly. First I must say if you hope to just leave feeling “relaxed” tell Mariah before you start. When she askes “is anything troubling you?” She means, “I am really going to work that free for you, breath deap!”

My hips feel great, and I am reminded to take care of myself. My day was changed…. I even forgot about an appointment. OH NO… :( Thankfully they did not appear to mind, and they shopped while I scurried downtown. Heh heh….

Massage = Good

Busy Crazy Life = Bad

Of course I am kidding, I really do wish how ever that I would be smart and visit Mariah much more often. Take care of yourself, life is short!

Oh yeah and make sure to Watch “Slumdog Millionaire” by Danny Boyle
