Oh look, Chicken Thursday!
It's fireplace season again at Cybersalt World Headquarters. The weather has changed to the point where coming and going from the house let's enough cold air in to trip the thermostat and turn one of them on. When it comes to fires, I prefer a good wood burning fireplace, but ours are both gas and get the job done - including looking just as cozy! Truth be told, I'm probably to lazy for heating our home with wood - perhaps all the more reason to get one, lol!
Today's video share shows the process of hand making tiles out of cement - probably another routine I'm not suited for. I found the process quite fascinating to watch so I hope you do too.

Norma Findlay in Room 302
A sweet grandmother telephoned St. Michael's Hospital. She timidly asked, "Is it possible to speak to someone who can tell me how a patient is doing?"
The operator said "I'll be glad to help, dear. What's the name and room number?"
The grandmother in her weak tremulous voice said, "Norma Findlay, Room 302."
The operator replied, "Let me place you on hold while I check with her nurse."
After a few minutes the operator returned to the phone, "Oh, good news. Her nurse has told me that Norma is doing very well. Her blood pressure is fine; her blood work just came back as normal and her physician, Dr.Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged Tuesday."
The grandmother said, "Thank you. That's wonderful! I was so worried! God bless you for the good news."
The operator replied, "You're more than welcome. Is Norma your daughter?"
The grandmother said, "No, I'm Norma Findlay in 302. No one tells me anything!"

To My Dear Friend, Pastor Phil Blowhorn:
Rev. James Snyder, God's Penman DevotionalsI’ve had so many birthdays in my life that I really don’t know how old I am. All I know is that I’m one year older than I was last year. I would not be able to remember when my life began if it wasn’t for paperwork.
Sunday greetings everyone!

Our three-year-old daughter, Jenna, was having trouble sleeping through the night, waking up because she was afraid. Each time as I re-tucked her into bed, I would remind her that Jesus was with her and he would keep her safe. The sleepless nights continued, with Jenna seeking comfort in our bedroom.
With such a tumultuous summer, I’m glad we are now beginning the fall season. There for a while, I didn’t think it was going to come. But, contrary to my negativity, it has arrived, and I’m delighted.
