I love to read fiction. I have a few favorite genres, but if it’s a good story, I’m not too fussy. When I find an author I enjoy, I’m always on the lookout for their latest and greatest and get ready to “take a vacation” in a good book. However, last week that methodology just… Read More
Passing through the fire
I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.

Slimy Learning
I watched a Ted Talks last night with my husband on quantum levitation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXHczjOg06w).
