That is the question Amy asked me today. She says hers is winter because there’s Christmas, and Christmas vacation.
We are in the middle of summer, over 95 degrees of dry heat here. I would not say summer is my favorite. but I don’t like rain, and I don’t like cold. I suppose autumn is pretty mild. Yes, there’s Thanksgiving, though I don’t like Halloween.

I am taking a XHTML “class” online from www.About.com
I am just learning the tags. It’s very tedious, but it’s a start. I have a mental block when it comes to computers. It seems like a big complex system. Everything is interwine such that if you know only a part of it, you can’t do much unless you keep learning more and more. But I have to start somewhere.
Summer vacation started. I love having my kids home. Summer school for Elliot and Audrey is only half day. Amy is home with me all day. We have plenty of leisure time together.
Amy and I went to Lowe’s today. It was fun pulling on the blinds on display, opening doors and windows, and pretending…
I think I am finally figuring out what life is all about.
God takes a long view of our lives and the events of the world. He has a reason for every little thing that happens because He sees how it fits in the big picture.
We are privileged to see just a glimpse of the big picture as God reveals it to us in the Bible. (Actually, if we take the time to study the Bible, God actually lets us in on a lot of what He knows and sees.)

Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make

“Decisions. We make them. Then they turn around and make us.”
When I made a decision to be a Christian when I was in high school, I didn’t realize the impact it would have on my life. One decision shaped my life, and not this life only, but my eternity.
The decision to reject Jesus Christ will do the same.
The derogatory definition of mother-in-law does not fit my mother-in-law. By her example, I’ve learned some lessons that I hope I will practice as mother-in-law one day:
Don’t give advice unless you’re asked
Keep yourself occupied with your own hobbies so you don’t meddle into other people’s business
The younger generation will do things differently.…
We went to Santa Barbara for 2 days. It’s a beautiful place! The weather was perfect – sunshine with cool breeze. There is a gated community just across the street from the beach, next to the SB Zoo. They are condos, the front units have a view of the ocean. I would like to live there!
I have the best life! I have 3 wonderful kids, a great husband who never gets mad, a nice mother-in-law who cooks every meal for us, and free time to do basically whatever I want!
I have nothing to complain about!
Well, I do still complain . . .
