Happy Birthday, Mama!
I can’t believe I almost forgot to wish my Mama a happy birthday via my blog (which she won’t read ’cause she doesn’t have Internet access…and doesn’t want it! 🙂 Read the rest of this entry »
Work, work, work!
I really am going to post EXTREMELY interesting topics here soon. (Please read that with a sarcastic tone in your head-voice.) I’m just swamped with work right now. Please keep checking back! Upcoming topics include: Read the rest of this entry »
Thursday Three-for-All (Things for Which I’m Thankful)
This list is by no means exhaustive, barely even scraping the surface of all the many blessings in my life. I am healthy (as far as I know), I have a job I enjoy, money in the bank, a nice home, plenty to eat, friends and family who love me and who I love. Can a person get much richer in the things that really matter?! Read the rest of this entry »
Debt Free!
Woo hoo!!!! After over 20 years of always having a debt of one form or another, I am finally debt free!! No house payment, no car payment, no credit cards! Wow! And it feels great!!
I’m finally able to save and invest with a real chance to have it add up to something that might get me through my “retirement” years. I put that in quotations because I doubt that, if I remain self-employed, I will ever be able to retire. Yuck. But I’m not thinking about that part today. I’m celebrating today!!
Other than that, I don’t have anything I really want to write about. There are some spiritual issues/thoughts/questions that I have, but with work as busy as it is, I don’t have time to stop and put it down on my blog. I hope things will let up on me a bit next week.

Even if you don’t like the music (which is okay), the concept of dancing on treadmills is pretty clever. Check it out at YouTube. Here ’tis.
(Been busy entertaining “in-laws” this weekend. No time to write.) 😦

Taking Issue with C.S. Lewis
I started re-reading “Mere Christianity” a couple of days ago. I’d read it a long, long time ago in what feels like a different life. So needless to say, I needed a refresher read to bring to mind what it said.
Let me say up front that I really enjoy and admire the way Lewis approached Christianity with logic and rationale; however, it concerns me that he uses a faulty method to attempt to prove at least one major doctrine. Up until this point, he’d been approaching his propositions with a logic that pretty much everyone, if they were honest, would have to say makes sense. But here is what he wrote in regards to Christianity being the “only way” to access God and it is this with which I have an issue—not because of the point he’s trying to prove, but because of the ham-handed method he uses to try!

No, really! I want to know!
