The newness of old things...

Sometimes you go for years without seeing certain items and then you see a set of double rainbows.  I am always awed by God's handiwork, the grace and salvation I know we have.  We now have a set of bobwhites.  I went out to the chicken pen the other day and heard him calling.  I answered him back.  I bet he has a nest under some brush next to the chicken pen.  It has been years since I have heard the one of a kind call of a bobwhite.  I am praying the nest they have will produce more of the birds that make that sweet sound.  If you have never heard the call of a bobwhite, look it up.  They have a unique call.

Have you ever seen, heard or smelled something that all of the sudden brings back a flood of childhood memories?  What are the things that trigger those memories for you?  Some of mine are home made cinnamon rolls.  Those remind me of my grandma Stone.  She always made cinnamon rolls during the holidays.  The way their house was set up it was perfect for running out the back door off the kitchen around to the front door off the living room and back through. Now there were a lot of cousins for the holidays.  Grandma always gave us kids a bite of the dough after she had gotten the goodies rolled up.  No telling how many batches of cinnamon rolls she made as we always had to have more than one bite.  I don't remember Grandma Stone making cakes but she could make wonderful pies and cinnamon rolls.   Sometimes, I will pass somebody and the smell of their powder reminds me of Grandma Stone.  Home made vegetable soup or stewed tomato  with cornbread ahhhh, now there is a memory of Grandma Draughon.  Sometimes I get hungry for cornbread and stewed tomatoes but, I can't have that without it bringing memories of happy times.  Goulash is one of those things Mom could make that would melt in your mouth and buttermilk pound cake is another that reminds me of Mom. 

Do you ever wonder what your children will pull out of their past that will bring along memories galore? What are the flowers you remember from your childhood/early adult years?  Well, lets see phlox, petunias, daylilies, cannas, 4-o'clocks on one side.  On the other side poppies, 4-o'clocks, lantana, phlox, pin cushion cactus, Christmas cactus, roses and many, many  more.  You see Grandma had no grass in her yard but she had flowers everywhere.  I know we played in that yard all the time yet I never remember getting in trouble for hurting one of her plants.  Hmmmmmmm probably just don't remember.  

As we get to the Thanksgiving and Christmas season what are the foods that you remember as a child or young adult.  Daddy was always in charge of the meat until he died.  Oh, what a cook he was. Come to think of it there were 2 good Such memories.  Below I am going to place a photo gallery.  What are the happy memories you need to focus on? Mom, Dad, Grandpa & Grandma Stone, Grandma and Grandpa Draughon, Deann and Tanna.

Deann Tidwell’s Nov 2013 Newsletter 
Heavenly Bounty & Young Living
Website
www.heavenlybounty.com 
https://www.youngliving.org/dtidwell 
  
This is the first newsletter I have created so bear with me as I figure out what I am doing and begin to develop a newsletter that is beneficial to all my readers.  As most of you know my life is a walk of faith and allowing God to work through me. I am still learning how to “Be Still and Know He is God. (Psalms  46:10)  I feel I learned a lot of things through personally having to figure out what was beneficial to me and those I love. At this point I believe I am going to use this newsletter as a way of sharing things I have learned, neat seasonal items from Young Living and those things I think you might find beneficial as you strive to live a healthier
life.  I have learned a lot of things by trial and error - so take the things I share with a grain of salt and feel free to try different things.  I believe we have to listen to our bodies as we walk out this journey.  

First, I guess you would benefit from knowing how I began my learning journey. In 1997 I became very ill.  I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. After a long period of time and the development of many other problems brought on by the medications I was on, I began looking for alternatives.  I am not a person who sits still, lies in bed, or is depressed and was not willing to settle for that.  I ended up going to a naturopathic doctor in San Antonio. He began working with me to overcome the problems I had developed. Part of the things items he used were Young Living Essential Oils.  

Now at that time I had no idea what an impact that would have in my life.  As I began to get better and regain a few of the brain cells that were in hiding I started to experiment
some on my own. One of the first things I started on was a fungal spot on the back of my right leg.  It started out as a red spot about the size of a dime.  By the time it got the size of a quarter (about a year later) I began to realize I had to do something.  I started looking at all the essential oils that were effective on fungus and viruses.  One of the books I used
was Advanced Aromatherapy:The Science of Essential Oil Therapy by Kurt  Schnaubelt, Ph.D.  I am not real sure why I chose the oils I did but, once again you need to trust your
instinct.  I started with Lavender.  I would use Lavender on the spot every night as I took a bath.  The spot began to change and itch.  I took that to be a good sign, as my thinking was if you are killing off a fungus it should itch.  After a while I added Marjoram which seems to dry it and make it crusty but, still did not kill it.  In the end I decided to use Melalucua 
http://www.youngliving.com/en_US/products/essential-oils/singles/melaleuca-alternifolia-essential-oil.  Well, that was a real experience.  After using this oil my leg started itching and I believe it itched all the way to the bone.  I have never had anything itch sooooo bad.  By this time I was pretty sure the fungus had really spread.  Now you must know this was not an overnight healing but, a slow process.  That spot is gone and left a little scar.  Much later I had another spot come up on the front of the other leg so I pulled out the essential oils. 
That spot is also gone.  If you are interested in learning more about essential oils here is a link for you. If you decide to order please go to my website https://www.youngliving.org/dtidwell and
place your order or email deanntidwell@hotmail.com
At this time I will try to put together a newsletter once a month. Sooooo - stay tuned for the
one in December.  Happy learning
and I hope I peaked your interest in getting back to nature in one of the most
amazing ways.
