I am back!
Well to be more precise...our Internet connection is back! Yahoo!
Good golly I didn't know how addicted I was to the world wide web.
How many times I thought, "Oh I'll go look that up real quick...nope never mind." Or, "I'll just zap that person an email to let them know....nope never mind."
While I was completely submerged in everything 'non Internet' oriented I did find much to keep me occupied. I had more time to read (This Present Darkness is amazing!), my house is more clean, and I painted half of Rosie-girl's room. In amidst all of the daily things there was a 4 day weekend from school so our friend came to visit from the beach. That of course meant giggles, food, giggles, movies, giggles, the mall and more friends. The girls spoiled me with their smiles hugs and attention. Really, I would have happily stayed home but they begged me to watch a movie with them (Inkheart was not quite like the book but I think well done all on its own, and though I am a happily married woman I did find myself crushing on one of the characters.).
It was a wonderful weekend and the time went by way too fast. I hear that there are already whispers of planning rounds 2 and 3 in the next couple of months.......so we have that to look forward to.
For now I want to clean out my email folder and visit blogger friends....................
I'm glad that you are back in the virtual world. Thanks for your thoughtful comments on my blog. We all appreciate someone reading our blog.

ReplyDeleteWelcome back, my friend! The web is certainly poorer when you're not on it!
ReplyDelete"I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart ..." Php 1:3-7a
well, welcome back...it's amazing what can be accomplished when we don't have modern-day distractions...and your heart was even blessed richly by laughter and good times with the girls...some days technology is highly over rated!

Welcome back Jules! You've been missed. I know, all that time to catch up on little chores we put aside...but I miss the internet when our server has a problem! So glad you came to see me!

I read Peretti's book a long time ago. I enjoyed it. I think I read the sequel too, (Piercing the Darkness) but I can't remember the specifics. I wonder if any of it seems dated or irrelevant today.
