What was I doing 10 years ago?
I was finishing up grad school (I graduated in May from Moody Graduate school)
I went to Arizona with my boyfriend to see my family for spring break
I came home with a ring on my finger!

Five Things on my to-do list today
Finish up my poem
Read books to the kids (no school today)
Work on some writing projects
Memorize verses with the kids for Awana
Laundry

Five Snacks I enjoy
String Cheese
Peanuts
Pistachios
Dark Chocolate
Homemade cookies

Five Things I would do if I were a billionaire
I would buy my husband a beautiful wooded property (80 acres?) with a stream going through it, surrounded by hills with pines and oaks and pretty serene meadows.
A billion dollars is a lot of money - this is a tough question... hmmm...
I think I would want to give plenty of money to the AIDS relief projects in Africa.
I would take all of my family over to Ukraine.
Then, we would take regular mission trips to various different countries
It would be nice to have a life unfettered by the worries of finances, but I think the worries of giving away and managing that much money would actually be stressful too!

Five of my bad habits
Reading books all day and getting no work done
Letting clutter gather on the counter by the phone
Forgetting to slide back the car seat for my husband
Waiting until the last minute to get ready to leave for school
Procrastination

Five places I have lived
Michigan
Dallas
New Mexico
Arizona
Ukraine

Five Jobs I've had
Waitress at Village Inn
Tutor
Teacher
Worked at Disneyland
Daycare provider

Five people I want to know more about:
Melissa
Lori
Robin
Susan
Amy
Anyone else interested?
It's fun to get to know each other, isn't it?

Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference? by Phillip Yancey

Shannon, at Rocks in my Dryer , is hosting a huge giveaway! Isn't that exciting! I love to give something meaningful to my friends - as I shop, I always look for just the right item that fits our relationship and the individual's personality. So, if you stop by this little blog of mine, I think you might like this gift I've picked out. This fall, I have been nourished by the wisdom of Phillip Yancey in his recent book on prayer. Our Bible study has plumbed the depths of prayer with Yancey's help in this amazing book. My personal prayer life has been challenged and I have probed the deeper questions surrounding prayer with a beloved mentor. I would love for you to enjoy this book too. I'll be giving the book away to one blessed commenter. So, leave a comment here and I'll be drawing a name next week to give away this treasure box full of well-mined jewels from God's Word and life's experiences. Don't forget to leave a comment to be entered in the draw

Thankful Thursday

A few things that fill my heart with gratitude... *Bright explosions in the sky *Bug repellent *Calamine and band aids for when we forget about the bug repellent (and the polka dot girl I put to bed each night whose sensitive skin seems to attract the little suckers) *Days spent at the beach *Life jackets *Aloe, although it can't take away a lobster red sunburn, it does soothe *Photographs and memories *The public library. My family has been enjoying plenty of summer library programs. *Ok, I'm even thankful for cockroaches. The kids sure had fun playing with the huge ones the "Bug Guy" Brought in for the last program we attended. They even ate a few bugs. (I am NOT joking!) I, on the other hand, found it conveniently necessary to excuse myself to the restroom right around the time the roaches and tarantulas were being brought out. *I'm thankful for a new job...which will be starting soon (more on that later). *Green slime, explosions, goggles and lab coats...yes,

In REAL Life

This week, I've been thankful for some "real" life fun with people I love. Here's ONE: Yesterday morning, the kids started the day out with some Karaoke fun. The first song requested was "Shine" by the Newsboys and I smiled as the kids bounced around in the family room to this song. Our little guy then asked for his favorite: Big Girls Don't Cry by Fergie. Don't ask me why. But hearing a three year old boy sing about big girls crying is just adorable. We progressed to "Big Black Horse and a Cherry Tree" by KT Tunstill. I have no idea what she means (why not a black kitten and an apple tree?), but the kids love the "whoo-hoo" part and that's all that really matters. Whoo-hoo....whoo-hoo! And the last song, a favorite of all, "Mr. Roboto" by STYX. Oh yeah. We shine our light for Jesus in Robot style around our house. Three little robots marched around with jerky movements singing word-for-word the entire song. Here'
