So, what sort of blessings are you thankful for this week?
I’m thankful for our warm home. What a blessing our new furnace has been for us this winter!
It’s been very cold here, and I’m thankful for blankets and slippers, and warm clothes and a home to hunker down in!
I’m thankful for my mother in law [...]
The links are a little sparse this week although I don’t know why. I guess I didn’t see much that made me excited.
Here’s a cute homemade cash envelope system.
Just Stop It! The video is hilarious but I like her thoughts afterward.
I discovered you can see the Weight Watchers community boards even if you didn’t join. [...]
This is a “bad” photo, but it’s our little kitty Mystery. She joins in school by laying on the printer–goofy cat!
This week we finished 2 books. The Landing of the Pilgrims & The Princess and the Goblin. I always love finishing a book!
James really liked The Princess and the Goblin and would often request another [...]
The other night at choir practice–my little part time job–a middle school student listed her stresses for us.
The director said, “Man, don’t even start. I have the most stress of anyone in this room. Well, I don’t know about Lizzie’s stress.”
I just smiled.
Stress? Yeah, I have a little.
When I spoke with Lee tonight, he said he ran into a couple of his nephews today.
He was talking about what’s going on in our life right now.
He said they all went to a friend’s house and sat down and his nephews prayed for him.
I found that incredibly encouraging and heartwarming.
What a blessing to have [...]

I’m doing my old Weight Watchers program. I have all the materials and started with the points system today.
Tuesday is weigh in day. [...]
Is anyone out there counting blessings today?
1. I’m thankful for my family and my home. After thinking about all the Haiti things, I think that I have so very much to be thankful for.
2. Lee and I spent Saturday afternoon together. Actually, we curled up on the couch and zonked out together. At first I [...]
Haiti has been in our hearts and prayers for the past several days.
I am a little behind in getting this post up, but I wanted to make sure I included something.
When I was a teenager, we had a missionary at our church several times who worked with other missionaries in Haiti. He helped them build [...]
Last week, I was running off to see my new nephew and I didn’t post this feature.
Barbara shares Scriptural reasons for suffering.
Watch a baby beluga being born at Shedd Aquarium. Then of course you have to listen to Raffi singing Baby Beluga. We used to LOVE listening to Raffi.
Pretty bookmarks craft idea
An online historical map [...]
I received 4 coupons from My Blog Spark to try the new General Mills Reduced Sugar Cereals.
I had seen the commercials. We rarely buy sugar cereal so I wasn’t going to buy them, but I didn’t mind trying cereal for free.
James was happy to get to try some cereal that he doesn’t usually get. I [...]
