After not opening my computer for nearly three months the faithful device has shuddered and puffed and barely refused to function. We already crossed the hour mark since I began trying to log onto my WordPress account to write this book review and alas, it won't cooperate. So, what I'm going to attempt to do … Continue reading Between the Wild Branches by Connilyn Cossette {Book Review}

Talking with Teens about Sexuality
Today is a low-key Saturday - I get to go into work, but just for a few hours and at my convenience. So, this morning I spent an extra hour or so reading books for review, then put on an audiobook and meal prepped three different dishes for the week. Then I figured I'd have … Continue reading Talking with Teens about Sexuality
Make Their Day
Last night I did the first Overnight at my job - that's where a group, most often a school or youth group, come to the Museum in the evening and get to watch DVDs, do a scavenger hunt in the dark throughout the exhibits, eat a late night snack, then spend the night. Sounds pretty … Continue reading Make Their Day
The Right Kind of Fool
This is the first blog post I'm writing from my new house. Oh yeah. That. I bought a house. I'll tell y'all about it someday. Hopefully. Because you know, it's kinda a big deal. It's also a lot of work, so I'm still chugging away at all that. In the meantime though, here's a review … Continue reading The Right Kind of Fool
A Gilded Lady
It's Saturday. Normally my "Saturday" is any random day during the week since I work a lot of weekend days at my job, but this week I really DO have Saturday off. I started off the day languidly - I spent the night at a friend's house, woke up around 7:00, listened to a devotional … Continue reading A Gilded Lady
A Portrait of Loyalty {a fantastic end to a series}
People! YAY! I get to share another book review with y'all - but unlike the last few where I felt slightly lackadaisical, this book is a for-sure winner for me. This is the third book in The Codebreaker Series, and if you feel inclined you can read the reviews for the first two books here … Continue reading A Portrait of Loyalty {a fantastic end to a series}
When a Book is So Good You Review It Twice
Before I called You Mine was one of those books that I went into without a lot of expectations. I read and reviewed it in February, and although I only gave the book 3.5 out of 5 stars, I've thought about the book on a weekly, and sometimes daily basis. And that means something has … Continue reading When a Book is So Good You Review It Twice
And Then She Began Reading Again
I rarely get my computer out any more. It sits in my cupboard alongside my clothes and languishes. Okay, maybe that's being a bit dramatic, but you get my point. I also barely read these days. That, I suppose, is a matter of perspective, but I went through June and July without finishing more than … Continue reading And Then She Began Reading Again
Called Out
The sun-dappled leaves swaying in the breeze outside my room fairly shout that Spring is here. The early morning hour is my favorite as I sit in the stillness and soak in inspiration for the rest of the day. A day full of scurrying, laughter, life, baby hugs, and remembering my own childhood. Earlier while … Continue reading Called Out
