Happy blizzard day guys! Well, for those of us who are impacted by this lovely force of nature. Knowing that there was a snowstorm coming, I planned on knocking out that reorganizing my bookshelves goal off my list, but guess what? I did that yesterday!

My Goals for 2018
Somehow my blog has turned me into one of those people that makes yearly goals/resolutions for the new year. I never used to do this, but I saw other bloggers posting their goals (usually with the 101 in 1001 challenge) and thought it was a cool idea to have a public list of goals to … Continue reading My Goals for 2018
Projected 2018 Reading List
I don't usually do a reading list, due to the fact I like to go by what I feel like reading. However, I do own a lot of books that I still need to read, so I'm thinking if I make a list of books I want to read in the coming year, I'll want … Continue reading Projected 2018 Reading List

Room Tour: 2 Years Later
Two years ago I wrote a blog post giving you a tour of my room when we moved into our current home. Though I'm pretty sure we'll be moving by this time next year, I'm still loving my room enough to do an updated room tour! And I might as well do it while I … Continue reading Room Tour: 2 Years Later
Owls and Snakes, Oh My!
As I'm sure most people are aware of, libraries are a great place to hold events. From lectures to movies to craft sales, and such things like that, we do it all. We also play host to live animals from time to time... and such an event happened the other night at work. I really … Continue reading Owls and Snakes, Oh My!

In Bible study we've started a new series on the fruit of the Spirit, which is going to be a nine-week study to talk about each of the different types of fruit that we produce as Christians if we abide in Jesus. We have only covered one so far - love. However, because love is … Continue reading Love as a Fruit of the Spirit

PicMonkey Is No Longer Free
Sure, you can still use their tools to edit a photo, but if you want to save it? Well, then you'll have to purchase a membership. Without any real warning, PicMonkey has changed how they operate, and users are not happy. https://twitter.com/leejennaa/status/912395029137604609 https://twitter.com/LancsKaren/status/912437662446968832 What makes matters worse is that if a free user goes on … Continue reading PicMonkey Is No Longer Free
Playlist: Songs for When You’re Mad or Annoyed
Anger is something deal with in different ways. Some people lash out, others shun the person who hurt them, and there are some who bottle everything up until they explode. I am typically the 'bottle everything up' person, though I've had a few tantrums in my past. I've gotten better, thank God, but I'm nowhere … Continue reading Playlist: Songs for When You’re Mad or Annoyed
