Sandra Dallas Fan

So, everyone knows I am a bookworm nerd.  I’ve been trying to read books that I actually own (as opposed to getting them from the library) because I’m trying to slow down my reading pace and actually get something done around my house.  It was working until I started reading a couple of Sandra Dallas books that I wanted to […]

This Morning

Here’s what we woke up to this morning… I guess winter is making an early appearance.  Good thing I cleaned out half the garage – no scraping snow & ice off my car now!!

Great Study Aid

I received a book recently that I was invited to review and I enjoyed it so much that I thought I’d post about it.  The book is called Learn to Study the Bible and it is filled with 40 different methods to approach the study of scripture.  While this book is written to a general Christian audience, anyone who is […]

Why Stop There?

I read this on facebook this past week: ” [facebook user] believes that no one should die because they cannot afford health care, and no one should go broke because they get sick. If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day” I keep thinking about this philosophy – and I finally decided, why […]

New Page

If you ever clicked on the “LDS Activity Days” tab, you might notice that it has disappeared. That’s because I decided to give that information it’s own page (on the suggestion of my sister-in-law, Sarah – thanks!). You can find all my Activity Days info at Go and Do! Tell your friends!  Spread the news!  Call me a geek!

I Must Post ….

I’ve been trying to post more regularly in the hopes that the few readers out there will keep checking back – but what to say when nothing has really been happening?? Tom has solved that issue by blogging only about current events and things that he finds absurd. Suffice it to say, I’m not as clever. Things I have enjoyed […]

Updated Book Reviews & New Picture Page

In case you look at them, I’ve finally updated my book review pages for 2009.   I’ve done a lot of re-reading of favorite authors the past six months, so if you are looking for some good authors to read, some of mine are on these lists.  Also, added another picture album.

Saving Money??

I just flipped through a recent Women’s Day magazine with the headline “Live Well on Less”.  No lie – the entire magazine was filled with things to BUY.  From cutesy little scrubbers, to advice to buy fresh flowers because “you deserve it” and ice cream because it “makes everything better”.  The other headline?  “Stop Spending on Stupid Stuff”.  Seriously – […]

New Stuff

I posted a new entry on LDS Activity Days Ideas – under prayer.  Also, if you haven’t ever looked at it, there are entries on the LDS Religion tab for Andrew & Haley’s baptism days, as well as a couple of essays.  I’ll try and upload a new picture album in the next couple of weeks.  If you can’t see […]
