What Do You Read?

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

I love to read.  Anything.  Any time.  Cereal boxes or the great American novel.  If it’s the printed word, I will read it.  I keep my local library busy with all my requests, but have learned how dangerous a place it can be when I walk through the door.  I try to avoid book stores.  I […]

The Rest of the Story

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

I always liked those little radio spots done by Paul Harvey telling the rest of the story.  Now I will share the rest of the story from A Scandalous Freedom by Steve Brown. I shared the first part of the book with you two weeks ago.  Moving into chapter six, Steve frees us from our heroes […]

Twins

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

I always wished I had one, but of course, by the time you’re old enough to want one, it’s too late.  Biology just works like that.  Consequently, I am drawn to anything about twins.  Am I maybe still looking for that long lost twin from which I was separated at birth?  Laura has posted a […]

Sand in the Works

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

It seems that during the process of spiffing up my island, there is a bit of sand in the works.  Never fear.  We’re working on getting all the sand back down on the beach and everything working as it should.  The beautification process should be complete within a day or two.  How do you like […]

A Scandalous Freedom

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

I’m reading a book by Steve Brown titled A Scandalous Freedom: The Radical Nature Of The Gospel.  Steve Brown is a radio broadcaster, seminary professor and author.  I’ve only read the first five chapters so far and find myself rejoicing in the fact that I’ve found this book and this author.  Steve opened my eyes […]

Do Hard Things

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

You’ve had the sneak peek and today you will get to read the first chapter.  This is a book written by teen brothers.  I am definitely impressed.  Of course, this book grabbed my attention right away as the forward was written by Chuck Norris.  I got hung up on Chuck Norris and his movies when I […]

Sneak Peek: Do Hard Things

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

The official review and first chapter of this book will be Thursday, May 15, but I’m excited about this book and couldn’t wait to tell you how great I think it is.  It’s the book I wish I had as a teen.  It’s the book I wish I had when I was a mother of […]

Tuned In And Wired!

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

I’ve been looking over a very tempting read.  It’s a special issue of Electronic House featuring the best homes of the year.  This is not a magazine I normally read.  In fact, this is the first time ever that I’ve seen it.  I only managed to read it about halfway  before my mind went on […]
