I have several with scripture verses that got me through a terrible time in my life. They are taped to a few places and are faded because that was a long time ago now.

Do you have sticky notes or post it notes on your fridge, computer, mirror or any other places, and if so, can you tell us what any of your sticky notes say? No, I don't have any currently. I used to have one on the bathroom mirror. This some years ago. It had an affirmation on it, written by hand, in pencil. It was just a small note. It said:"God loves you, his child, as much as He loves Jesus." I kept it there for 9 months.

It was a Purdue Boilermakers blanket, and after Dad died my sister-in-law took the blanket to a seamstress who makes memorial teddy bears out of such things. It's a real treasure.

Do you have sticky notes or post it notes on your fridge, computer, mirror or any other places, and if so, can you tell us what any of your sticky notes say? I often put sticky notes on my bathroom mirror. Right now there is one that says "PAWS." It's a reminder for me to go to the dog shelter where I volunteer (it's named Lakeshore PAWS). This morning I had a sticky on the mirror that reminded me to stop at a store and pick up a book that my sister asked me to get for her.
That'll do. Have a thoroughly pleasant Thursday! It was a pleasant but busy day. Today was even busier! Hence, my belated answers to your questions. Thanks, bjh!
