It seems that I am a horrid keeper of a blog. :S I started out well, but have slacked off a lot lately. It has been almost a year...a YEAR! since I posted something!!

Let's see. Not much has changed since then though. There is still no child, no children for us. Ben is still working hard and I'm just doing my thing. There is more stories that I have started. I hope to finish them all some day! :-)

Not much else is going on.

So I guess that is all.

Thoughts worth more...

I know it has been awhile since I wrote a post of what is going on or what I am thinking. I have a few things I wanted to write and here they are.

First, I just wanted to say something about what we say to someone who has had a loss. We say things like "until you get over it" and think the person needs to "get over it", whatever "it" is. But, I was just thinking about something. Instead of "getting over it" I think we should be healed and be able to remember the one we lost...to death or whatever. Just my thoughts worth more than a penny :-D

Also, I was thinking about this. I am using six week body makeover to lose weight and I've lost about 50 pounds now. If God blesses us with a child (or children), it will be okay. I won't be upset because I lose my figure or whatever. I know the way to lose the weight again. :-D So, God, I'm all ready for the baby blessing to come to me! :-D

When Sparrows Fall

Jack likes to count things and he notices things are strange in Miranda's household. Too strange and full of laughter, but also mystery.

Secrets of the Vine for Women

I read this book in about a day! It was such a wonderful read. I'll probably let friends borrow it. I advise all women to have a read. It is about John 15 and how we can abide in Christ. I'm not sure what else to say except read it!

Just to chat...

You know sometimes I just want to chat with people...anyone. Like right now...lol...and I will in a moment.

Oh and I feel so bad that I don't write about me anymore, but about the books I have read. :-s Sorry I haven't taken the time to really tell you all how it is and what's going on.

I will say this though...I have been losing weight! :-D So far 25 pounds. Yay me!

I think that's it for now.

Here Burns My Candle-book review

Here Burns My Candle by Liz Curtis Higgs is packed full of history, romance, betrayal, war, death, and spiritual renewal. It is a version of the Ruth story of the Bible. I enjoyed the history and parts of this book. At times, it was slow to get moving, but I held out for the long hall and am glad I did. I highly recommend this book.
