15 Day Blogger Challange - Day 3

Who Are Your Blogging BFF's?

I have to admit I'm not that great about keeping up with my own blog let alone anyone else's. It's too easy to get sucked into reading the many good blogs out there and before I know it half the day is gone and I've accomplished nothing - except to read some excellent blogs.

However, there are a few blogs I do try to keep up with. I have listed their links below in hopes that you will visit and enjoy them as much as I do.


I "met" Jenny several years ago when she reviewed a book my mom wrote. Jenny is just a personable lady to me. I enjoy perusing her blog and getting ideas of books to read next. We also share a love of history. While she lives on the other side of the globe, I do hope that maybe someday in our travels we will meet up. I think we could spend an entire weekend talking and not run out of things to say.

Jan is an acquaintance of mine that I wish I knew better. I like Jan's posts because she is all the things I'm not. Her ideas and recipes would be all the things I would post on Pinterest, if I had a Pinterest account, and would never actually do. Go check out her blog for some truly unique and interesting ideas.

I have known Kate the longest. In fact, I have a hard time typing Kate as opposed to Katie, which is how I first knew her. She is like family to me. Her blog is a recent creation of hers and I love it! I love her writing style. Her stories always suck me in and make me stay until the end. Kate takes stories from the Bible and makes them understandable and more personal to everyone. You can find her new blog at:

    Thank you for the mention! I love that blogging has helped me discover that there are people right around me with similar interests. Now, we need to all get together and make things! :)

    You can do a homeschooling for moms kind of class. I'd come!

    I was reluctant to start one, but now that I have, I found I actually enjoy it. I have enjoyed reading those of my friends as well.

Monday Meditations - Ambivilence

Ambivalence Oh, how this word defines us as humans! We are ambivalent about so many things. We are wishy-washy. We can't seem to make up our minds about anything. Just look at a woman's bedroom after she has gotten dressed. The pile of clothes on the bed tells us that dress is the wrong color, that one is uncomfortable, today's the wrong mood for that one, that one isn't appropriate for the situation, that one doesn't fit anymore… I've known women that can't make up their minds about who they want to date. Some can't make up their minds about which women they truly want to be friends with. College students enter the university with one major and come out with another, yet work in a completely different third field. Couples get married only to find out shortly after the wedding that marriage (or the person they chose in the first place) isn't really right for them I could go on with examples of how we have mixed feelings, unc

Monday Meditations - Joyful

Joyful What do you think of when you hear the world "joyful"? The giggling of children? A smiling face? A happy surprise? These things can all bring joy, but I have found that being joyful is a choice, a state of mind. When my father passed away a couple years ago, I posted this on my Facebook page: Today I choose to rejoice, in spite of my sadness. I rejoice in the fact that my father is no longer sick or suffering. I rejoice in the fact that I was born to parents who loved me enough to show me The Way, The Truth, and The Life. I rejoice in the fact that my parents are together again after many years of being apart. I rejoice in the fact that I will see them both again someday. I rejoice that when I do see them, they will both be whole and healthy. I know "rejoice" shows up a lot there, but you'll also notice the word "choose." That's part of being joyful in difficult times. We can be sad and still be joyful. We can be dis
