\nWater from the tap<\/p>\n
\nAnna asking me if there’s anything else we need at the grocery store<\/p>\n
\nWith Grace, regarding a new purchase of hers<\/p>\n
\nEmmanuel by Michael W. Smith<\/p>\n
\nYesterday, while speaking with my sister on the phone.<\/p>\n
\nYes<\/p>\n
\nYes<\/p>\n
\nNo<\/p>\n
\nYes, several. I’ve been blessed with many new friends through book club, work, and church. <\/p>\n
\nAbsolutely<\/p>\n
\nDoesn’t every person we meet make an indelible impression on us, either for good or for ill, but always, within the will of God for our ultimate good and His glory?<\/p>\n
\nYep, but it was nice things! Now that’s a pleasant surprise!<\/p>\n
\nAll but two bloggy buddies I’ve befriend–Becky of Boys Rule My Life<\/a> and Kristi of For Such a Time as This<\/a><\/p>\n
\nNo<\/p>\n
\nI wouldn’t mind changing my last name someday.<\/p>\n
\nI don’t remember. (That’s what happens when you get old!) <\/p>\n
\n11:30 (haven’t slept in that late for at least 5 years)<\/p>\n
\nLast night, or tonight? Last night, bathing after a great time hanging out with Teresa and Ruth. Tonight, putting up Christmas decorations after a long day of making muffins and putting the house in order.<\/p>\n
\nMmm. Well, there are things I feel<\/i> I cannot wait for–but the truth is, I will<\/i> wait until God chooses that whatever it is occurs (if ever).<\/p>\n
\nFriday<\/p>\n
\nMy feet hurting (I started the day in heels, despite knowing that I had a house to clean and ~15 dozen muffins to make. Sometimes I’m a little low on sense.)<\/p>\n
\nI Saw Three Ships come sailing in…<\/p>\n
\nSeveral persons named Tom, actually–some of them even at the same time.<\/p>\n
\nMy ears<\/p>\n
\nNot sure. These days, probably UNL’s “blackboard”–I’ve been busy inputting grades and communicating with students who are preparing for finals.<\/p>\n
\nPisces. And I’d claim a fish even if my birthday didn’t fall within that “sign.” My real sign is \u0399\u03a7\u0398\u03a5\u03a3 (Ichthus): Jesus Christ, God’s Son, Savior. <\/p>\n
\nNow that one’s pretty obvious. I have two x chromosomes.<\/p>\n
\nTwin Maples Christian School (Homeschool)<\/p>\n
\nUmm… Twin Maples or… umm… Agape Christian Academy (a homeschoolish school I attended for two and a half? years–even if I didn’t learn anything there.)<\/p>\n
\nTwin Maples Christian School. And Lincoln East High for a couple and a half classes.<\/p>\n
\nBrown-ish<\/p>\n
\nWay long. As long as it can get. (Which is a different length for every person, by the way. No matter how long I let my hair grow out, it never gets longer than the small of my back–which is what it has been for the last five, six, maybe seven? years.) <\/p>\n
\nGod’s grace. <\/p>\n
\nThat God has chosen to work through a cracked vessel like myself. <\/p>\n
\nTwo, maybe. I haven’t stuck anything in ’em for years (8?)–so they might not really be there anymore. <\/p>\n
\nNone. Have I ever told you how I’m not really a fan of unnecessary pain? <\/p>\n
\nI’m a righty.<\/p>\n
\nAn exploratory laporascopy(?) as a preschooler. Otherwise? A nose job.<\/p>\n
\nMy ears<\/p>\n
\nAnna<\/p>\n
\nI’ve never participated in organized sports.<\/p>\n
\nBlack Hills, maybe? Unless you count Grandma and Grandpa’s.<\/p>\n
\nNothing<\/p>\n
\n Nothing<\/p>\n
\nPost this (and then get ready for bed)<\/p>\n
\nDidn’t I already answer this one? Except the music has shut off now.<\/p>\n
\nChristmas!<\/p>\n
\nNow that’s a REAL secret. Give a good guess.<\/p>\n
\nErm, ditto the above.<\/p>\n
\nAlready got one, thank you very much.<\/p>\n
\nFrom you<\/i> at least :-)<\/p>\n
\nReferring to what? Taller if you’re talking counters or bookshelves. Shorter if you’re talking horrible books that you nevertheless feel obligated to finish, telephone conversations, or waits for a public restroom stall to open up. <\/p>\n
\nAgain, what are you talking about? Older is generally better when it comes to (many) books, furniture, and cookware. Younger is usually better for pipes, insulation, and energy efficient appliances.<\/p>\n
\nAre those supposed to be opposites?<\/p>\n
\nIf by nice stomach, you mean less abdominal fat, stomach is the correct answer. Abdominal fat is positively correlated with risk for heart disease. Even if you’ve got noodle arms, you’re healthier if you don’t have that belly fat.<\/p>\n
\nAnother “these are supposed to be opposites?” question. <\/p>\n
\nHah. I just got it. These are all asking about what you find more attractive in a person of the opposite sex. Which means I should have been deleting this whole section. Blech!<\/p>\n
\nNo<\/p>\n
\nNope. Only when mixed into girly drinks–and even then, only rarely.<\/p>\n
\nYes, but never permanently (Thank You, Lord!)<\/p>\n
\nI believe that I exist. But do I believe in<\/i> myself? I believe that in myself dwells no good thing. Only by God’s grace, freely bestowed, do I have anything.<\/p>\n
\n Yes.<\/p>\n
\nI believe in God the Father, Maker of Heaven… Yep, that’d be part of my standard confession of faith. <\/p>\n
\nNo. Never have.<\/p>\n
\nI believe that people do it. I don’t believe people should do it.<\/p>\n
\nYep. Those aren’t part of the creeds or anything–but they are part of the Bible–which I affirm wholeheartedly.<\/p>\n
\nAs if I hadn’t been all along?<\/i><\/p>\n
\nI’d be hard pressed to come up with a day that I haven’t.<\/p>\n
\nScary thought. I believe God has placed me on this earth at this time for a purpose–and that His purposes are best. It’d be fun to visit other times, I suppose, but I really am content with just living an old-fashioned life in the modern age.<\/p>\n
\nOoo…that’s a toughy. There’ve been many a difficult day and many a wonderful day. I’m glad I’ve lived them all, I’m not sure I’d like to relive any of them.<\/p>\n
