It's Been A While!!

I'm so sorry I've been MIA for so long!

Working really takes a lot of my crafty time away, but I enjoy where I work so there's that.

I've also moved on from making so many cards to journaling and keeping a Books Read Journal in my Happy Planner. I'm having so much for with that, and it's something I can do anywhere.

There is so much I want to catch you up on, but right now I gotta go do some house stuff.

Miss all of you!

Would love to hear from you in the comments.

Hugs!

Janis

Twenty-Eight and a Half Wishes

(A Rose Gardner Mystery #1)

 💕

Finally, a book I didn't want to put down until it's over. I only had a few minutes to read each day, and it was killing me that I couldn't just sit in my rocking chair at home and read until it was finished. But alas, there's that 10 hour work day thing that makes clothes washing, and other household duties come first. Oh well. One day I'll retire... again.

Great book. Loved it! Loved the visions, the growth, the mystery, the suspense, the playful parts and especially MUFFY! .... I'm so going to read book #2 soon. It better be just as good. LOL I need a string of good books for a while!!  Any suggestions?

In the Deluge

...Poetry that Flows

by Dana Lockhart

I love poetry. Don't read a lot of poetry books anymore, but I enjoy it when I do. This book though was full or heartache and sadness. The author must have been going through a really hard time, which makes me sad for her.

Beforelife

by Randal Grham

First of all, this is not the kind of book I would normally read. But every now and then I have to grab something completely different than the same old stuff. 

Second of all, I believe God created heaven and earth, that Jesus Christ is His only Son who paid for our sins, and that the Holy Spirit lives within me everyday.

All of that being said, that doesn't mean I don't enjoy the occasional book with different ideas. It's interesting to see how other people view life and the life after. Their ideas don't threaten me or send me into fits of anger or feeling like I have to push what I believe through their skull with a hammer.

I enjoy reading Harry Potter. Do I believe all of that is real? No, but it doesn't mean I can't enjoy a good story.

Well, this book was interesting. I didn't like some of their ideas. I didn't like taking the Lord's name in vain (because I love God, and want Him to be respected)..... but I couldn't finish this book. I cringe when someone cusses with God's name involved. I just don't like it. I'd rather not hear Him talked about that way. It hurts me to hear His name thrown around like it's meaningless. I love God, and respect Him. Doesn't mean you have to, but it does mean I don't have to read things that I don't want to read.

I politely returned the book. It was a great idea, and I can see how it was going to be very interesting and enjoyable, but I just couldn't keep reading how they referred to the God I love. If that part wasn't in there, I probably would have kept reading.

The Shop Around the Corner

(Sweet Tea & A Southern Gentleman Book #2)

by Anne-Marie Meyer

I can't do it. A new storyline... right away. I was hoping answers hanging from the first book would be completed first. I'm sorry, but I'm in one of those moods where I have no patience. Get on with it already. ....sigh...
