My sewing basket to this day is a Longaberger I bought when I hosted a party around 1995. It has a green fabric floral lid and liner that goes over the edge. I still love it. 

I have a basket on my desk and another small one on my office door. 

I think that's all I have. Mine all have liners so they have lasted very well. 

They are beautiful baskets with fun memories.

Sense and Sensibility and the Bible: Part 1  

Sense and Sensibility and the Bible: Part 2

I think Sense and Sensibility has overtaken Pride and Prejudice in my ranking of Jane Austen stories. I love Persuasion as well. 

How else could you use this idea other than for little cars?

All those years on the edge of poverty so that I could homeschool the kids were most definitely worth it all. As I see so many kids from broken families come into the office, I've realized that my kids weren't disadvantaged at all. They had two married for life parents who gave them as much stability as possible. They had the best life could give them—a mom and dad who loved each other in spite of hard circumstances and sometimes hard hearts, who were selfless and selfish and discouraged and hopeful, who trusted that somehow, some way, the LORD would provide. He did. He has, in many ways, restored what the locusts have stolen.

I have other random accounts to delete (Locals, etc.) that are on my list as well today.

The only two I have left are Gab and Telegram

I have zero desire to delete Telegram. It's my favorite. 

I am struggling the most to give up Gab. There's so much information available on there that I can't easily find anywhere else. But I also get mad every time I get on there because there is so much brutal truth available there. 😜 

Sept = 7

Oct = 8

Nov = 9

Why doesn't our calendar have 13 months?

What is the purpose in changing it?

Most importantly, how does it link to denying the Creator?

We have to replace ours probably this week. I have a GE at the moment that is the worst appliance I've ever owned. Money aside, I was glad the repair guy said it wasn't worth repairing!
