By now, most people are aware of the stockmarket tumble of yesterday. They call it a “tumble”, but it is the biggest drop since 911, so now the conversation ( which for those interested has been going on for quite some time) is debating how long lasting the direction will be. Some say this and [...]

A couple weeks ago I went to Sam’s Club. It was on a Saturday- the day they serve up free food offerings to shoppers. Anyway, I saw a woman cooking up some salmon that looked very appetizing and stood by making conversation. She had a name tag on and I pronounced it, and mentioned it [...]

Is there judgment in the earth?

In response to the quote from Ecclesiastes,”For God will bring every deed into judgment,
including every hidden thing,
whether it is good or evil.”
Maryam wrote:
“But what about judgement while on earth?”
…which started me thinking….
That is one of the big questions. There is a quote I came across years ago:

Some family is in town since we had a memorial service yesterday. My son went with me today to get much needed memory for my computer. Blew the dust out of the old thing and updated with twice as much RAM – everything works sooooo much better.

Much thanks to the Shamrock Club and the [...]

Two neato things:
For those of you who have not upgraded Firefox… once you do you find it has an automatic spell check. This is a boon for all my blog readers, my blog, and -because of all the comments I make online- other peoples blogs. It saves a world of typos. That means I [...]

I put in an entry over @ Intellectuelle to share Matt Harmless‘ wonderful link to NASA pictures of the day.

February 20th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Culture-media

Art-ful Thinking

That is the title of the book I’ve recently read and my husband is now ( sporadically- he is not much of a reader) going through. I picked it up in lieu of the ‘Boundaries’ book, which seemed so hard to find. It just so happened that the bookstore had supplied a seminar with all [...]

Realism
February 18th, 2007 · No Comments · Contemplations
I gave you all a peek into the real parts of my own life that weren’t all so pretty. When was the last time you read a Christian woman blogger admit to you that she had a fight with her husband and then audaciously, publicly says it is due to more of his passive – [...]
