The Best Pillow for A Good Nights Sleep

 Choosing the right pillow may be very vital in accomplishing restful sleep. A proper pillow will help the top and neck with out applying immoderate strain, as it conforms to the precise shape of the bed, as a result spreading the weight frivolously and uniformly alongside the vertebrae. Pillows are a constant supply of frustration for many. In addition to aggravating the neck, plenty of pillows also can have an effect on the shoulder. The shoulder ought to not be positioned at 90 tiers to the bed, due to the fact it can cause spasms inside the trapezius muscle mass.Trapezius muscle mass perform a variety of actions, including acting as a platform to elevate the cranium, which is very important to relax in the course of sleep completely. If the shoulder is located barely ahead at the mattress in the front of the mattress, assuming that the mattress can keep this role, the threat of placing stress on the trapezius and forcing the scapula (shoulder blade) to the column is decrease...

On Fridays We Wear RED - T-shirt Designs with Cricut

Image
With two boys in the Air Force, a nephew headed to basics soon, and one of our sons spending 9 months deployed in Africa, with a family the size of ours - I've made a LOT of RED shirts.  We all have at least one or two. Or four.   Pretty much everyone I know now has one or two.  They are quick and simple to make, and pretty cheap too. So I often get asked where I got the designs.  And I admit, they are not my idea.  I've seen them all over.  I have no idea who the credit should go to for the originals.  I'd love to credit the "creator" - but even for the one I bought on Etsy, I later found another woman offering it for free on a facebook group, claiming it was her design.  I tend to believe her, but I could be wrong.  She was not the person selling it on Etsy.  It was pretty shocking to me, the first time I learned that people take free designs from facebook shared files and sell them on Etsy.  I've now seen it so many times th...

Free Alternatives To The Samantha Font

Image
The font used above is Samantha.  It's pretty hard to find another font with this many options for each letter - some letters have 20 different options in this font!  Note the 3 different lower case T's in the example above.   How to use the Samantha Font In Cricut Design Space http://fieldsofhether.blogspot.com/2017/11/using-samantha-font-in-cricut-design.html Cliff Notes - you need to use a character map, Maintype logic is my freeware favorite. It's hard to beat the Samantha font.  It has SO many pretty glyphs, and many options for each letter.  It's almost always on sale for $14 at Mighty Deals, and eventually most cricut owners cave and buy it.  But there are a few free alternatives that might work in its place, depending on what you are looking for. The free fonts do not have nearly as many options - some have no real options at all, which can make them much easier to use as well.  None of these would actually replace Samantha, but they might...
