Crawling Through St. Croix

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

I didn’t really crawl there.  That just sounded like a cool title.  A lot of cruise ships stop at St. Thomas, USVI, but as much as I liked St. Thomas, St. Croix had more of a draw for me.  I guess maybe that was because it didn’t have as much of a tourist feel.   I […]

What On Earth Can I Do With That?

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

I’ve discovered a very educational site at How Can I Recycle This?  This place seems to have the answer to how to use all kinds of things.  One of the things that I hate to throw away, but have no earthly idea what to do with it is the bread bag clip.  You know, that […]

The Absolute Best

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

God’s Absolute Best For You by D. James Kennedy, Ph.D. explores the relationship between law and grace.  Do believers need to obey the Ten Commandments?  Do the Ten Commandments still have a place in the 21st century.  Dr. Kennedy takes you step by step through the commandments in such a way that you search your […]

Does It Count?

Monday, July 21st, 2008

“Not everything that can be counted, counts.  And not everything that counts can be counted.” These words were found on a small card in Albert Einstein’s office after he died.  The words are attributed to Einstein, but no one knows for sure if they really are his words.  Do you do something every day that really […]

A Stupid Person Will Get Understanding

Sunday, July 20th, 2008

“Can you find out the deep things of God?  Can you find out the limit of the Almighty?”  It is higher than heaven – what can you do?  Deeper than Sheol – what can you know?  Its measure is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.  If he passes through, and imprisons, and […]

Clothmaker, Clothmaker, Make Me A Cloth

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

I’ve joined a Yahoo group called Clothmakers.  I’m really enjoying all the fantastic knitted and crocheted dishcloths and facecloths.  On the first of each month, there’s a crochet along of a cloth and on the fifteenth, there’s a knit along.  There’s an added bonus that keeps a person working feverishly on those cloths.  You won’t […]

Fitness By The Numbers

Friday, July 18th, 2008

I had a doctor visit last week.  You know the one.  The first of the week you go have fasting lab work drawn.  The end of the week you go find out the numbers.  In between you have most of the week to fret about the numbers.  Will they be too high?  Will they be […]

Interesting Clicks

Friday, July 18th, 2008

I found a couple interesting health related sites yesterday.  You can go to this Olay site for information as to where you can receive a free skin cancer screening. Go to this Oral B site and click on Operation Smile.  When it takes you to this site, click on the child’s photo and you have […]

It’s a Jungle Out There!

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

I suppose by now you’ve figured out that my mind can travel down some paths not frequently traveled. While in Walgreen’s last week something caught my eye as I was passing the cosmetic counter.  I had to turn around and go back and get a better look.  I really just couldn’t believe what I was […]

Leaving Behind the Luggage

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

The increased gas prices aren’t just affecting our day to day life.  It’s affecting our vacations.  More people are now staying home instead of taking vacations the all American way by hitting the road.  We’re discovering staycations and the nearby attractions.  But what if Aunt Gloria has her heart set on seeing us one more […]
