Weekends really count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless. Weekends are a bit like rainbows; they look good from a distance but disappear when you get up close to them. Anyway happy weekend folks.
Yipee, it’s just some days before school closes. Are you ready for the holiday?
The coming holiday is the longest and happiest because of the festive season.
Christmas comes but once a year.
What do you really want for Christmas?
More time, more joy, and less stress?
Welcome to Christmas Countdown 2015!
A calmer, more centred holiday. Celebration is easy when you simplify your holidays with the Christmas countdown, a six-week Christmas organising plan from Organised Christmas.
We are so happy that the weather is changing and hope you have started shopping.

So the “War Room” premièred at SK theatres last night and I was left speechless with the creative movie.
War is as old as human history, an aged widow named Miss Clara narrates in the opening moments of “War Room”.
“We fight for power. We fight for riches. We fight for rights. We fight for freedom,” she says.
“There always seems to be something to fight about.”
That’s as true for individuals as it is for countries. Yet despite the reality of relational conflict, Clara observes, “Very few of us know how to fight the right way. We fight each other instead of recognising our common spiritual enemy, she says, the thief who comes “to steal, kill and destroy.”
If we hope to thwart Satan’s schemes, to counter his cunning strategies to divide us, we’ll need a beefy battle strategy. A strategy that can come from only one place: time spent asking for God’s guidance in our prayer closet.
Or, as Miss Clara calls it, her “war room.”
Elizabeth Jordan doesn’t know anything about such secret spiritual places. Oh, this successful real estate agent, wife and mother is a Christian. But tending to the details of her life is all-consuming for her right now. Especially when one of those details involves her deteriorating relationship with her husband, Tony.
Tony is a star sales representative for a pharmaceutical company, a natural born talker whose megawatt smile has magnetic appeal. He pulls in four times as much money as Elizabeth does — a fact he’s quick to remind her of when she tries to give her sister some of it. Tony, you see, has no interest in helping people who are hardly working when he’s working so hard.
Tony doesn’t have much interest in his wife, either.
And caught in the middle of this troubled couple’s conflict is 10-year-old daughter Danielle, who longs for her parents’ love and attention and longs for them to stop yelling at each other.
Re-enter Clara. Elizabeth’s path crosses Clara’s when the older woman needs a real estate agent. And while Elizabeth is trying to get the information she needs to sell her house, Clara can’t quit showing her she cares about more than just business.
Soon a friendship is born, one in which an older woman begins to disciple a younger one about fighting the right way against the enemy in the right place.
It’s a movie not to be missed and let’s get ready for Christmas and please don’t forget to post your weekend pictures on social media and hashtag us.
Till next week . . . keep the swag!
