Finally...

It's So Lovely Being Mad


Scene: the cafe of a large bookstore

Jonathan looks up from his beverage and with superhero-like eyesight spots a book across the store.
"I must see that book"
He pours over the book and brings it to show Judi.
"Do you relate to this?"  (reads several statements aloud)
Judi gives him that 'you know I do' glare, in jest.
Long story short, that book has a new home with us.
Jonathan feels extremely blessed that after 18 years of marriage God has finally provided the "Judi" instruction manual:
The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook

All kidding aside, it's been really great and helpful so far!

Happy New Year!!!...

2012:  A New Hope

2012 has a theme...an awesome promise from God...A New Hope!  I'm excited to see what God has in store...glad to get out of the fog and 'poison' of the last couple of years.

My resolutions are the usual:  eat right and exercise, spend wisely and consciously, operate optimistically

I also hope to make time for crafting and creating.  My usual outlets for this part of my being are no longer an option and that's added to the pain of the last couple years.  My goal is to craft at least 10 things this year (yep, really dreamin' big).  I don't care if all I do is knit ten dishrags but I want to do something!  I hope to find inspiration in books I own and Craft Gawker (a wonderful but time-consuming website).

If you are a crafty sort, click on this link only if you dare and have some time to kill...I'd turn back if I were you...really, this is your last warning...okay, here it is BUT don't say I didn't warn you!!!






















are you sure?
