Month: April 2009

  • Inspirational P’s

         I have been enjoying audio books for the last couple of months.  They are a grand way to help the time pass quickly while I’m on the treadmill.  If it weren’t for audio books, I don’t think I’d have been as faithful in exercising as I’ve been, and I certainly wouldn’t be seeing the […]

  • And The Winner Is…..

         A hearty thanks to all of you who entered my “No Fooling” Give Away.  It was great fun to see all of the book titles mentioned that you’d like to read.  What an interesting group of ladies you are!  I have to say, though, that I have never seen the book “Nourishing Traditions” mentioned […]

  • What About The Drawing?

         Copper and I take our grandchildren out for a special day for their birthdays, beginning with their 5th birthday.  Our seven year old grandson has been seven for several weeks now, but today is the day that we have finally arranged to take him out for our special day together.  I’m excited!!   We left […]

  • Little Sprouts

               I know I just planted my garden yesterday, but I was delighted this afternoon to see these vigorous, growing, active sprouts romping about the garden beds!  Uncle Will was careful to show the littler ones to walk on the hard, dirt pathways and not to trample the raised beds.          We walked out […]

  • What Fun!

              I have certainly enjoyed reading your entries for my little give away.  What fun, it’s been!  You all are an impressive bunch.  Books on theology.  Devotional books.  Homeschooling books.  Special Needs books.  Homemaking books.  Cook books.  Some good encouraging books for moms.  Several of you are hoping to buy books related to skills […]

  • No Fooling, I’m Giving Away $25

         This isn’t an April Fool’s Day joke.  No fooling around, I am giving away a $25 Amazon Gift Card to one of you!  Read on.     Yesterday’s post combined and updated two old posts that I’ve referred you to often.  The updated reminder was necessary because I really do think that it’s important that you […]
