and honestly, I was not particularly impressed. I saw a LOT of things that were not Biblically accurate, and several things that were exaggerated for movie value. I definitely think the Book is better. In some ways, the movie expands on one’s knowledge of the customs of the day, but in others, it doesn’t go far enough. Some examples of […]
But if I did, it would look something like this one I drew on: I’m such a dweeb.
1. I was with someone – I can’t remember who – at a big privately-owned library. I found some change while I was waiting to talk to the owners. I found some neat books. We left and went for a walk. Suddenly, a mile or so away (where, apparently, my car was parked), I realized I’d left my purse in […]
We have had lots of computers in the house for a while. I just told a friend yesterday that we have “nearly one computer per person”… well, last night one of our customers gave us an extra computer that he had lying around! So now we have one per person! LOL! It makes playing multiplayer games fun 😀
It wasn’t expensive, considering. It’s a 1984 Ford. We just have to get it on the road now (registered, tagged, insured officially, etc) The main credit for us getting this van goes to the Lord, but right after Him it goes to my friend Filip who found out about it and helped work out the deal. 🙂
I dreamed last night that I had a dream and woke up and wanted to post it on here right away before I forgot it, and felt like I’d been asleep all night but when I looked at the clock it was only 12:30. The computer was a lot different, too; it was more like a workstation than a PC. […]
I co-hosted a Discovery Toys party tonight… we only had one person show up (with her son) :-/ It was my friend’s “Grand Opening” but I’m afraid it wasn’t very grand. We did have a good time, in spite of that. I ordered a game. If you follow the above link to Discovery Toys, and order, please use EC#BUT730. Thanks! […]
At one point, I was in the hospital. Something had happened to my legs – not sure what. A very dear friend was there, holding my hand an encouraging me. I went home, in a wheelchair (to a quite large apartment), determined to do more letter writing . When I got home, my mom was there and she had just […]
Feeling harried, running late,Little things that irritate,Sitting idly, making plans,Color-coding them with crayons. Lots of good intentions here,But I notice with a tear,As computer screen grows hazy,All I seem to be is lazy. Children calling and intreating,I forget their childhood’s fleetingAs I sit here hour by hourIn my little cluttered bower.
I dreamed we were living in a small place in a “poor” community, then had the opportunity to move to a larger place, in a “nicer” area. The house was a huge one, near the end of a cul-de-sac, with a huge fenced back yard. It was two story, with two big master bedrooms upstairs, one in back next to […]
Well, we owe too much on credit cards, but I was blessed to get our interest rates lowered this week! Two of them, lowered by 4% each, and one transferred to a 3.9% until Oct, then 5% lower than it was after that! What a blessing!!
A poem I wrote back in 1996 sums up my day today: I was sitting at my desk one dayJust whiling the time awayWhen suddenly my nose began to fill;Then for no apparent reasonI began to be a-sneezin’And I sneezed and sneezed – Alas, I’m sneezing still. Ugh.
I dreamed we were at our friends’ house – but it was a BIG house, with an indoor swimming pool, and we were in that room and we were going to play a game of Canasta, but somehow the cards in my purse were mixed (one of the Canasta set, and one new unmarked deck) so we decided we’d better […]
Just woke up from an awful dream. Dreamed we went in a 15-passenger van to get a load of something (don’t remember what) and after driving down the road a quarter to a half mile, Robby asked, “Where’s Nate?” The kids in the back just kind of shrugged. I said, “Rae, can you see if he’s on the back of […]
We left Thursday, March 18 around noon. We drove to Coker Creek, TN, where we set up camp around 4:30pm (Central time). It was so peaceful! The place we usually go is out in the middle of nowhere. It is a primitive camp (though they DO now have an outhouse). We had the place to ourselves on Thursday. Thursday night […]
To all my fellow Irish – Happy St Pat’s! I should also mention that my leg problem appears to have resolved itself, for which I am grateful.
but I think I have a (self) diagnosis. It appears to fit the description HERE. A dear friend suggested it could be from sitting at the computer too much. My dh says the “obesity” part is probably a lot of the problem (I agree with both).
Those who know me might remember back in the summer, I had a few weeks when my right thigh was numb. Well, that same area now HURTS, starting this morning. I don’t know why. My 4yo son got on my lap at church this morning and it was painful 🙁 Hopefully this will be shorter-lived than the numbness…
Dreamed I was in a place with a bunch of pews (but it wasn’t a church)… friend of mine was lying down on one of ’em. I was standing there and someone threw something at me, it got in my ear. I leaned over to let it fall out, turned out to be a BB… and there were several of […]
We were having to move out of a huge 3-story house. There was another person moving out, too. We were going to drop their stuff at their house on the way to our place. It seems the huge house was a temporary dwelling of some sort. It appeared to be near a campground. A Christian camp. There were services twice […]
