A Teddy Bear is a special friend to children
all over the world. He's cuddly. He makes
you feel secure in an otherwise insecure
world. He's lovable. Your Teddy Bear is
both a companion and a comforter. And,
he's not afraid of the dark. He'll keep you safe.

The Origin of the Teddy Bear:
During the early 1900s, President Theodore Roosevelt
was in office as President of the United States. He was
a hunter. While hunting in Mississippi in 1902, he
refused to shoot a small bear. The Washington Post
picked up on this story, and made a cartoon of the
event. Toy store owners, Morris and Rose Michtom,
wrote to President Roosevelt for permission to call
their stuffed animals "Teddy Bears". Teddy bears
became wildly popular. Their company went on to
become the Ideal Toy Company, one of the largest
toy companies in the world.

When buttons were invented,
they were very expensive and worn
primarily by the rich. Since most people
are right-handed, it is easier to push
buttons on the right through holes
on the left. Because wealthy women
were dressed by maids, dressmakers
put the buttons on the maid's right!

Tips for Buying Gardening Gloves

Gardening can be tough on your hands.
All that digging, pruning, and weeding
can leave your hands looking and feeling
sad and neglected. A good set of
gardening gloves is one the most

Protection.
No more worrying about scratches,
thorns, and dirty fingernails.
Increased grip.
Gloves increase your ability to grip tools,
rocks, and heavy objects.
Moisture retention.
Without gloves, soil tends to suck the
moisture right out of exposed skin.

A Glove for Every Job
No matter what the gardening task is,
a perfect glove exists to help with the job.

Working with chemicals:
When spraying chemicals or handling
fertilizers, use gloves made from chemical
resistant fabrics like rubber, nitrile, or
neoprene. These fabrics are also flexible,
which allows you to pick up small object
like caps and nozzles. Rubber is the most
impermeable and will prevent liquids
from coming into contact with your skin
the best. The downside of impermeability
is that it doesn't breathe as well, so you
can expect your hands to get sweaty in a hurry.

the best. The downside of impermeability

Heavy-duty jobs:
For jobs like pruning brambles or moving
stones, you need thick gloves with long
cuffs to protect your wrists from cuts,
scrapes and prickly thorns. "Rose gauntlet"
gloves are a perfect choice. They feature
long, stiff cuffs to protect the forearms,
and a soft leather hand for flexibility.
Gloves made from synthetics materials
such as Spectra and Kevlar are also great
choice - especially when working with saws
and knives. They are cut resistant,
lightweight, and are designed to protect
your hands when working with spiny plants
or anything with a sharp edge.

Working with water:
"Bog Gloves" are made from cotton that
is dipped in a coating of Latex or PVC to
waterproof the fingers and palms, making
them the perfect choice for working
around ponds and water features or when
light tasks need completing during rainy
or dewy conditions.

Everyday tasks:
For less demanding tasks like raking, weeding,
and cultivating, many gardeners prefer a
medium-weight glove made from lightweight
leather (usually goatskin or pigskin) or gloves
made from a cotton/polyester blend. Another
great fabric choice is bamboo. Not only is it
lightweight and durable, bamboo is also
vegan (not made from animals), anti-microbial,
and offer more stretch than traditional fabrics.
As an added bonus, bamboo doesn't shrink
or bleed when you wash it.

Getting the Right Fit
When trying on gardening gloves, they should
fit "snug" but never feel restrictive or tight.
Men's and women's hands are shaped differently.
To prevent blisters and avoid excess bulk,
it's always best to select a glove that is made
specifically for your gender.

Men's and women's hands are shaped differently.
To prevent blisters and avoid excess bulk,
it's always best to select a glove that is made

A good pair of women's gloves will usually
be cut narrower across the palms and slightly
longer in the fingers to accommodate
contours and fingernails of a woman's hands.
If possible, try before you buy. If you're
buying gloves blind (e.g. from a catalog or
from an online store) try to choose among
brands that feature a sizing chart.

Extra Special Features
At minimum, any gardening gloves you buy
should be flexible, breathable, washable, and
the appropriate weight for the job. For those
who like a little more luxury, here are some
other special features to look for:

Caring for Your Gardening Gloves
The best way to care for your gardening
gloves really depends on the type that you
have. Some can be machine washed;
others will shrink and bleed. Check the
manufacturer's care instruction on the
label first. If the label is missing, try
searching for the manufacturer on the
Internet. Unless the care instructions
specifically advise against it, nearly all
gardening gloves can be machine washed
in cold water using a mild detergent and
dried on a low setting in the dryer.

Gloves made from cotton can be bleached.
Leather and bamboo gloves can also be
machine washed (cold water, mild detergent),
but should be air dried. To restore their shape,
squeeze them a few times and slip them on
when they are nearly dry. Gloves with
combination fabrics and rubber gloves
should also be air-dried rather than placed
in the dryer.

Another way to clean leather gloves is to
gently scrub them with a pumice-based
soap, such as Lava (you can do this while
you're wearing them). Rinse them in a
bucket of warm water and then hang the
gloves on the line to dry. When they are
nearly dry, put them on to restore their shape.

Use A Clipboard

Use a clipboard for storing place

you mount it to the wall, it could
be a decorative item.

Extending the Life
of Razor Blades
Wherever you live, razors are left
in an environment of heat,
humidity, wet, and steamy air.
And living where there is more
moisture in the air doesn't help!
If you look closely at your razor,
it is most likely either molded
or rusty before you know it.
Neither is good at all.
The solution is easy! Get a cup
or container of some sorts
(plastic cup is fine) and some
olive oil. It doesn't even need
to be the kind you spend extra
for to cook. Pour enough olive
oil in the container to cover blades.

I love the multiple blades, but
using one a few times, then
risking cuts or infections wasn't
worth it. Now I have a sharp,
new-like razor every time I go
to use it. When you notice the
oil getting "cloudy", just pour
it out and refill the container
you are using! Using oil on the
blades also saves on those
little band aids or taking out
blood spots in the process.
It works - give this one a try!

EMERGING COURAGEOUS 
The situations, activities, and
individuals that frighten us
remain static. Their relative
intensity does not change.
Fear, on the other hand,
self-magnifies. It is when you
are afraid and envisioning
all that might go wrong that
the energy underlying your
fear grows. A tiny flicker of
anxiety can easily develop
into a terror that manifests
itself physically and
eventually paralyzes you
into inaction. Though
frequently, in walking through
that fear, we discover that
the strength of our fright was
out of synch with reality. And
we learn that doing what
frightens us can lead to great
blessings. Confronting your
trepidation head-on will help
you accept that few frightening
scenarios will ever live up to
the negative disasters that we
sometimes play out in our minds.

Though fear is literally an
evolutionary gift meant to
sharpen your senses and
energize you during times
of great stress, it can
nonetheless become a barrier
that prevents you from
fulfilling your potential by
causing you to miss out on
rewarding, life-changing
experiences. During the period
before you face your fear, you
may have to deal with a barrage
of negative thoughts and emotions.

Walking through it, whether
your fear is public speaking,
taking part in an activity that
makes you nervous, or
asserting yourself when the
odds are against you, may be
equally as difficult. But once
you have emerged unscathed
on the other side, which you
will, you will likely wonder why
you assumed the worst in the
first place. As you spend time
worrying about what might
happen, it’s good to know that
your fear probably won’t
happen at all. It may feel like
a great weight has been lifted
from your shoulders, and you
will likely feel a sense of
passionate pride. Walking
through your fear can! mean
taking risks and can require
both practice and patience.
Since it is challenging to act
when you are gripped with
fear, start small.

You will also find that when

fear in the face, the universe
will always offer you some
form of aid or support.
When you see the heights
of accomplishment and
personal evolution you can
attain when you walk through
your fears, your faith in yourself
will grow, allowing your next
step to be easier.
