I hope more people see your blog, I know they would enjoy it. I'll add it to my fav list, and perhaps it may direct a few your way!

ReplyDeleteand i think i like you more because of it, although i never thought that was possible...maybe its the whole "i have to force myself to drink water," and "refer to number 42..."

I stumbled across this blog and throughly enjoyed reading about a complete stranger's life. I found that to be a bit odd. But if you ask my nephews and nieces I am odd.
ReplyDeleteI may consider reading future blogs, but it's not my thing. Thanks for the exerpts from you life.
This is completely charming. You go, God's girl!
