Katy’s Weblog
We used to call them slumber parties.
And I’m not too old for them :)
We had a sleepover at my friend B’s house last night. I am thankful for my single young adult girlfriends who include me in their fun. We cook, we eat, we talk about silly things. We eat some more. We plop down to sleep wherever and whenever.
I totally agree with this perspective.
But then I’m not at that stage. If I read this in 30 years, would I still agree?
I think I would.
“For to me, to live is Christ, to die is gain.”
“You’re lucky you don’t have a weight problem, really lucky!” Said the nurse at my doctor’s office. (I was there to see about my recent headaches. Most likely sinuses.)
Is your weight a matter of luck?
I suppose if you have a high metabolism, you’re “lucky” that you can eat a lot and not gain weight.
I’ve read this before, but The Great Divorce by C.S. Lewis is certainly worth reading again, and again.
I took it off my shelf because my friend mentioned that Max McLean did a sketch of one of the scenes from the book. I started to read the book again, and couldn’t put it down.
The last time we bought a new car was in 1999 when we bought the Honda Odyssey.
Yesterday we bought a new 2013 Toyota Prius, brand new with 2 miles on the odometer.
Don’t we all hate that part of the car buying process of haggling with the salesperson, who, when he can’t get you…
It’s time to read another mystery for my entertainment, so I picked out The Nine Tailors from the local library.
I was not disappointed. Always loved Sayers writings. However, I don’t understand a lot of the cultural context. For example, there are many references to bell ringing of church bells – pealing. I just skip the parts that give details of the art of ringing.
