AC on the FRITZ!
Just a note to let you know that I am going to be OFFLINE for a couple of days. (What will I DO?!?!) I’m in Florida and my A/C power cord for my laptop just COMPLETELY DIED. I have like 22 minutes of battery power left–and I’m kind of freaking out about it. I didn’t even bring a book to …
Made me laugh …
Randy Alcorn’s Blog often has profound/deep thoughts about life, death, sin, grace, suffering, generosity, etc. (His children’s book on Heaven really was a blessing last year when we lost Choza, our baby, and Grandma Marjorie all in the course of a few months.) But today? No profound thoughts. Just a compilation of things, one of which made me laugh: “With …
Sealed in a bag …
I met with my pastor yesterday. We’ve been meeting regularly for a few months now. I’m helping him a tiny bit with a project and he’s helping me a TON with, well, lots of stuff. He helps to hold me accountable with my ongoing battle of faith’s fight against sin re: habitual overeating / gluttony / idolatry of food. He …
Stayed up too late …
Well … I stayed up too late! But look at what I accomplished: Now I’m just hoping that I packed, you know, actual clothing and event materials for Florida too. Everyone should be receiving their DVDs soon EXCEPT that: 1. Fred MAY be getting sick. If he pops a high fever and goes down for the flu count, things may …
DVDs are here!!
Oh my STARS! Big ol’ boxes were just delivered to my back door … my DVD series is actually HERE! Living the Gospel in Relationships I’m a little freaked out. Feeling very vulnerable. (I think I feel like, “Why in the WORLD do I even TRY to do stuff like this!?! There are like a ZILLION people who teach this …
Almost hit by a CAR
We’re not allowed to stay and watch the ballet class (otherwise, I think I would find it VERY hard to leave) … so I usually get a good 30 minutes of errands in while the girls are in class. Today? I hit the bank and the health food store … and THEN I was almost hit. Seriously. INCHES. I was …
Easter pics
(My maternal grandmother, Pearl Kroncke, used to doll Kali and I up for Easter. I have vivid and happy memories of matching blue & pink dresses, hats, gloves, purses, and shiny new white shoes. Guess that’s why I continue this tradition, eh? Hope these pics give you a little smile.) BTW–although Sophia and our friend, Emma, were EXTREMELY well behaved …
Confrontation Via Blog …
Just a quick note to respond to the confrontational comment recently left by someone … A quick response is, yes, yes, I’m sure I have more logs in my eyes than I can ever imagine. However, I do not believe redemptive/helpful confrontation is likely to take place “in public” via virtually anonymous comments left in a virtual stranger’s blog. (I’m …
Infomercial Time!
OK. Seriously. I would do an INFOMERCIAL for this thing if I were asked … Do you guys know about THE FURMINATOR??? Because OH MY STARS!!! It is just the most amazing dog-hair-removal-thingy-EVER!! My dear friend Nancy L. (also a GOLDEN LOVER!! Hi Sadie!!) told me about it and I immediately ordered one off of Amazon. MONEY WELL SPENT!!! We …
Easily Hurt …
We had a great Sabbath today. It was a joy to be at Pastor Jason’s Grace-Based Marriage Sunday School Class. Corporate worship was wonderful–it is always so good to be called to worship, have the privilege of praying corporately, and be fed by the Word as it is both read and preached to us. And a great afternoon followed a …
